monition : This article contains spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine .
Summary
I ’m even more excited aboutAvengers : Secret Warsin Phase 6 after the release ofDeadpool & Wolverine . Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman ’s Marvel Studios first appearance firmly cemented 20th Century Fox ’s formerX - Menfranchise as a clear part of theMCU , confirming their universe to be intend Earth-10005 , while the MCU ’s principal continuity follows Earth-616 , the Sacred Timeline . I eff this reveal , as it celebrated and paid court to the two - decade longX - Menfranchise , rather than chew out it , but this also left me feeling a small confused .
Deadpool & Wolverineincluded many easter eggsand callbacks to Marvel ’s history , and brought back a issue of character reference from late Marvel movies to help Reynolds and Jackman ’s titular sub in their risky venture . Some of these characters get from Earth-10005 , which made gumption to me , give the fact thatDeadpool & Wolverinebridged the gap between Fox and Marvel Studios ' franchises . However , I was expecting theending ofDeadpool & Wolverineto go very differently for Earth-10005 , but this might have actually been the best option for the MCU .
The Fox X-Men Universe Is Still Intact After Deadpool & Wolverine
In the calendar month run up toDeadpool & Wolverine’srelease , I theorized that the pic would bid a last leave to Fox ’s X - Men Universe , reserve Deadpool to link up the MCU ’s main timeline for good . I was appal when this did n’t pass off . Cassandra Nova almost obliterated Earth-10005 , and I thought that was just what was go to happen , but the fuse intensity of Deadpool and a shirtless Wolverine thwarted the sinister villain ’s plan . With Nova seemingly dead , Earth-10005 was amazingly left intact at the death ofDeadpool & Wolverine .
All the Heron who madecameo appearances inDeadpool & Wolverinewere return to their home realities , and everyone seemed to live happily ever after . This was baffling to me , as I ’d hope that Deadpool would make the move to the MCU , Wolverine would be recast , and Fox ’s former franchise would be destroyed , perhaps in a massive penetration event or due to the loss of its Anchor Being . rather , Deadpool & Wolverinefelt something like a standalone MCU picture show , create me interrogate whether Reynolds would return to the role at all .
Deadpool made many jokes at the MCU ’s expense in Deadpool & Wolverine , but the movie ’s own record has proven that one of them is simply out of true .

Avengers 5 & 6 Can Be More Faithful To Marvel Comics' Secret Wars Storyline Now
Even though I leave the theater feeling a bit confused aboutDeadpool & Wolverine’sending , upon further reflection , I reckon this was actually the perfect choice . This ending intend that Marvel Studios can be much more faithful to Marvel Comics’Secret Warsstoryline when developingPhase 6’sAvengers : DoomsdayandAvengers : Secret Wars . In the comics,2015’sSecret Warssaw a monolithic incursion between Earth-616 and the substitute Earth-1610 wipe out the multiverse , but in the MCU , this could happen between Earth-616 and Earth-10005 .
John Krasinski ’s Mister Fantastic introduced the concept of incursions inDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , stating,“An penetration happens when the boundary between two universes erodes and they collide , destroying one or both entirely . "
This intend thatDeadpool & Wolverine’sopen - stop terminal moment were deliberate , leaving Earth-10005 in creation so thatAvengers : Secret Warscan feature its collision with Earth-616 . Of course , this universe had to remain in existence for a while longer , as Wolverine wo n’t snuff it until the 2029 - setLogan , and there is also speculation thatThe Marvels’post - recognition scenetakes situation in Earth-10005 before long afterDeadpool & Wolverine . Featuring Earth-10005 in Phase 6’sAvengersmovies would leave even more 10 - Men heroes to return in the MCU ’s future tense , which makes me very excited .
A follow-up to the highly successful Deadpool and Deadpool 2 films starring Ryan Reynolds as the Merc with a Mouth. The third film will be the first in the franchise to be developed under the Marvel Studios banner following Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox.
I Want Secret Wars To End Earth-10005 For Good
I ’ve certainly come around to the idea of Earth-10005 being around for a while longer , particularly since there seems to be more narration to recite before Deadpool officially joins the MCU . However , I do n’t require this to be the shell indefinitely . In fact , I would love for Earth-10005 to be destroyed during the events ofAvengers : DoomsdayandAvengers : Secret Wars , as this would follow Marvel Comics’Secret Warsstoryline , especially ifRobert Downey Jr. ’s Doctor Doomforms Battleworld in the MCU ’s Phase 6 .
Indeed , incursions would also cause the demolition of the MCU ’s main continuity , but a new timeline could be established afterAvengers : Secret Wars . There have been theory regarding asoft - reboot of the MCUafter the Multiverse Saga , and I count this could see many Cuban sandwich continue their journeys , while some fan - favorite or lesser - used histrion and characters from Earth-10005 , some of whom appear inDeadpool & Wolverine , could also return for good . Combining all these level into one continuity seems to me like the good room forward for the MCU .
