DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE: A List Of Every Major Cameo & Surprise In The Marvel Studios Blockbuster - SPOILERS

Deadpool & Wolverine features a ton of special surprises and we've compiled a short list of all of the big cameos and character appearances in the Marvel Studios blockbuster. Come check it out!

Deadpool & Wolverine is now playing in theaters and is on its way to a monster weekend at the box office, thanks to a positive critical reception and an extremely strong word of mouth as more and more fans across the globe laud Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's long-overdue MCU debut. 

**This article contains MAJOR spoilers from Deadpool & Wolverine, so proceed with caution!**

With the film featuring a vast number of cameos and special appearances (some of which were revealed during their Hall H presentation last night), we thought it would be smart to compile of list of every character that appears in the film and what happens to them after crossing paths with the Merc with a Mouth and Logan. 

Keep scrolling to find out!

In our review, we said, "Deadpool & Wolverine is the ultimate Marvel movie, a non-stop blockbuster entertainer with a heart of red and gold. Ryan Reynolds is truly Marvel Jesus, breathing new life into the MCU and resurrecting the X-Man himself Hugh Jackman for one of the most wildly enjoyable comic book movies ever, with both delivering all-time performances that will go down in the CBM history books. Don’t head to the theater expecting answers about the future of the X-Men in the MCU or any of the larger ramifications on the Sacred Timeline, just walk in expecting a good time with Deadpool and Wolverine - maybe grab a popcorn bucket - and, trust me, you’ll walk out extremely happy."

Deadpool & Wolverine

Deadpool returns for the first time in six years, and this time, he brought company as he resurrects the one-and-only Wolverine for an all-time adventure that finally gives comic book movie legends Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds an opportunity to play in the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Vanessa Carlysle, Blind Al, Dopinder, Peter, Colossus, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Yukio, Shatterstar, & Buck

Many of Wade Wilson's friends from the previous two installments return to celebrate Wade's birthday, including ex-girlfriend Vanessa Carlysle (Morena Baccarin), roommate Blind Al (Leslie Uggams), Dopinder (Karan Soni), Peter (Rob Delaney), Colossus (Stefan Kapičić), Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand), Yukio (Shioli Kutsuna), Shatterstar (Lewis Tan), and Buck (Randal Reeder). 

Curiously missing, however, are Cable (Josh Brolin) and Domino (Zazie Beetz), although the former does get a mention.  

Cassandra Nova

Charles Xavier's twin sister Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin) makes her live-action debut here and is easily one of the most formidable foes either hero has ever faced. Whether or not they can overcome her might remains to be seen, but it's going to be one hell of a ride either way.

Mr. Paradox and the TVA

The film's secondary antagonist is Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen), an overambitious TVA agent that aims to use a Time Ripper to wipe Wade's timeline of Earth-10005 out of existence. As you can guess, this doesn't sit well with our loud-mouthed hero.

Happy Hogan

At the beginning of the film, Wade meets with Happy Hogan (Jon Favreau) of Earth-616 and hopes to join the Avengers, but Happy tells him that he might not be the best fit for Earth's Mightiest Heroes and sends him back home, telling him to find his purpose with the people he loves.

His office also features a few Easter eggs, including Captain America's prototype shield, Iron Man's Mark II helmet, and Peter Parker's Iron Man mask. 

Pyro 

X2: X-Men United and X-Men: The Last Stand villain Pyro (Aaron Stanford) is back in action as one of Cassandra Nova's enforcers, who captures Wade and Logan and brings them back to Nova's base. 

Sabretooth

After his one-and-done appearance in X-Men, the original Sabretooth (Tyler Mane) returns to square off with Wolverine, but their reunion is short lived as Logan is fairly quick to separate the evildoer's head from his shoulders. 

Johnny Storm/Human Torch

In one of the film's most unexpected surprises, Johnny Storm (Chris Evans) makes his long-awaited return here and quickly befriends Wade and Logan, although their partnership ultimately ends in disaster for the Human Torch.

Dogpool & Nicepool

After escaping Cassandra Nova in their first encounter, Deadpool and Wolverine meet the adorable Dogpool (Peggy the Dog) and her handler Nicepool (Ryan Reynolds), who carries some very cool golden pistols that catch the eye of one Wade Wilson...

Elektra

Almost two decades after her solo film, Elektra Natchios (Jennifer Garner) returns as a member of The Others, a resistance group within the Void that features a few other familiar faces...

Blade

We have no idea how he pulled it off, but the original daywalker, Blade (Wesley Snipes), also returns in this film as a member of The Others and reunites with an actor he didn't particularly care for in their first collaboration, Blade: Trinity.

Gambit

After years and years of rumors and speculation, ultimately resulting in the film being canned, Channing Tatum finally gets to suit up as Gambit, another member of The Others, and makes quite an impression in what's likely his one and only appearance as the fan-favorite character. 

Laura/X-23

X-23 is back! While her involvement was spoiled in the final trailer, her return was well worth the wait and her reunion with Wolverine was easily one of the film's biggest and most emotional highlights. 

Wolverine Variants (Including The Cavillrine)

Goodbye DC... hello Marvel! Former Superman Henry Cavill makes a quick appearance as a Wolverine variant, credited as the Cavillrine. Whether we'll see more of him down the line remains to be seen, but it was certainly an exciting appearance to kickstart the film. 

Other Wolverine variants to appear include a comics-accurate 5'3" Wolverine, Age of Apocalypse Wolverine, Patch, Old Man Logan, crucified Wolverine, and a brown-and-tan suit Wolverine that's about the face the Hulk!

B-15

Following the events of Loki season two, B-15 runs the TVA and it seems as though she may have let a few things slip under her fingers, as it's under her watch that Paradox puts his evil plan in motion. 

Juggernaut, Lady Deathstrike, Blob, Toad, Azazel, and Callisto

Juggernaut (Aaron W. Reed), Lady Deathstrike, Blob (Mike Waters), Toad, Azazel, Callisto, and others make quick apperances as members of Cassandra Nova's army, but they're variants of the same characters we knew from the original X-Men trilogy, so basically just glorified Easter Eggs, if we're being honest. 

Deadpool Corps

The Deadpool Corps make their presence known in the film's final act, where Deadpool and Wolverine slice and dice their way through the deranged batch of psychopaths. 

Among their ranks are Ladypool (Blake Lively), Kidpool (Inze Reynolds), Babypool (Olin Reynolds), Cowboy Deadpool (Matthew McConaughey), Headpool (Nathan Fillion), Canadapool (Alex Kyshkovych), Welshpool (Paul Mullin), and Dancepool (Nick Pauley).

Golden Age Deadpool, Zenpool, Scottish Deadpool, Deadpool 2099, The Fool, and Piratepool, but their actors are still unknown. 

TVA Soldier

Ryan Reynolds' Wrexham co-owner and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia star Rob McElhenney appears as an unnamed TVA soldier. No word on which one, but we'll find out soon enough.

Thor, Hulk & The Avengers

Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) do make appearances in the film, albeit via what appears to be edited archival footage from Thor: The Dark World and The Avengers, respectively. Thor appears in a quick scene where he's mourning the loss of Deadpool, while Hulk appears a short while later when he's seen about to square off with a Wolverine variant wearing a brown-and-tan suit. 

Many of The Avengers also appear via archival footage from their respective films during the scene where Deadpool arrives at the TVA.

The X-Men

The X-Men's presence is felt throughout the film, but, surprisingly enough, none of them physically appear. Wolverine mentions Professor X, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Storm, and Beast by name, and tells X-23 how they were the inspiration for him wearing the suit. We also learn later that Cassandra Nova killed Magneto and melted his helmet, so the resistance has to improvise to acquire Juggernaut's helmet instead to stop her. 

However, many of the X-Men actors do appear during an emotional retrospective that plays during the film's credits. It features behind-the-scenes clips from the original X-Men films, the First Class quadrilogy, The Wolverine trilogy, Daredevil, the Blade trilogy, Fantastic Four, and more.

That line from Snipes about how there will only ever be one Blade was a nuclear level burn, bring him back! And Nicepool saying how the mcu has is better after Endgame gave me a bombastic chuckle. It's still a 7, but there weren't any bad scenes imo

@bobevanz - that line doesn't even make sense considering we had an entire season of a BLADE TV show on SPIKE TV back in the day.

@TheVandalore - but playing the same version of Blade. Different actors, same variant.

Personal favorite cameo: The Cavillrine

Loudest personal reaction to a surprise cameo: Blade

Lamest Cameo: Magic Mike Gambit was just as god awful as id always imagined it.

Side note.... Wolverines mask wasn't executed as well as I hoped... Like, he never blinks. And it felt under developed and tacked. Idk... The mask looked great but they could have don't more with it.

@TheVandalore - it definitely shows we dodged a bullet. Tatum isn't Gambit. he's a caricature of Gambit.

bkmeijer1 - 7/26/2024, 12:47 PM
@TheVandalore - I don't think Tatum as Gambit is lame, as it shows what could've been. Same with Krasinski as Reed in MoM. I'm glad they're not the main versions though

GodHercules20 - 7/26/2024, 3:01 PM
@TheVandalore - Channing Tatum as Gambit one of the worst cbm castings to date. He lacks style that Gambit has and he's chubby. Thank god his solo movie didn't happen
TheVandalore
TheVandalore - 7/26/2024, 3:23 PM
@GodHercules20 - agreed. Ideally a live action Gambit should look and sound like a young Norman Reedus with a Cajun accent.

I thought the Gambit was well played. His few minutes of screen time worked. A full movie would have been like dripping sriracha onto my eyeballs.

Shoulda had the cameos stay with Wade and Logan to fight the Deadpool corps in final act rather than a bunch of mindless variants. Thematically woulda fit with Wade essentially finding his own team of Avengers.

Channing Tatum be like

I'd imagine that Rob McElhenney was the tva agent that deadpool spoke to about seeing his eyes through the mask, or something like that.

Didn't like what they did to the Human Torch. He was my favorite character that they brought back and I wish we saw more of the FF. The crotch shot was just not funny. There's no way that Pyro ever would have beat the Human Torch.

Wolverine's mask is supposed to have eyes in it, not be white'd out. It didn't look real on Jackman when he finally donned it. It also just materialized from nothing, which was odd.

I wanted to like this movie because of Hugh Jackman's return, and for him finally donning Wolverine's comic accurate costume, but alas, it was not meant to be.

Ryan Reynolds is just too annoying that it just overshadows all the good aspects of the movie.

Besides a few funny running gags (Chris Evans as Johnny Storm, DP's infatuation with Thor, Channing Tatum as Gambit), the rest of the humor was not funny and felt like it was written for prepubescent teenage boys.

6.25/10

@ymk700 - Wait, wait, wait. Wait a moment. You went seeing a Deadpool movie NOT wanting, let alone expecting, it to be a movie that felt like it was written for (and by) prepubescent teenage boys??? You think Deadpool is NOT an annoying character?

Did you even know who Deadpool is? LOL

@ymk700 -

soo...
you went to a deadpool film, expecting ryan reynolds to NOT play the deadpool character the same way he has been?
hell, the way he has played almost EVERY character he's ever done.
what did you expect?

really, i want to know what misguided expectations you had?

I was surprised, and actually found it rather cool, that they even showed a couple or so shots from the 2015 Fantastic Four during the end credits. By the end especially it really was a love letter to the overall Fox universe.
Goldboink
Goldboink - 7/28/2024, 8:53 PM
@IAmAHoot -
And that's what it was. A love letter to the Fox movies and a welcome to the new family gesture now that The Mouse owns the whole shooting match.

@GodHercules20 - Real lovers of cinema only watch fan cams of preview screenings, truly the purest way to enjoy a work of art.
