Deadpool and Wolverine is poised to be one of the biggest movies of the year, uniting two of cinema’s most beloved superheroes for a story that promises to shake up the Marvel Cinematic Universe in unprecedented ways.
Ryan Reynolds returns as the wisecracking Deadpool, ready to obliterate the fourth wall as he officially joins the MCU under the supervision of the Time Variance Authority (TVA).
Joining him is Hugh Jackman, reprising his role as Wolverine, but with a twist. This version of Wolverine dons the classic yellow suit from the comics and brings an even fiercer demeanor. With Wade Wilson stepping into a role likened to a ‘Marvel Jesus,’ there’s a lot on the line for the MCU, but the recent shocker is that Wade and Vanessa aren’t together anymore.
So, what’s happening?
Yes, Vanessa Carlysle moves on with a new boyfriend in Deadpool & Wolverine. The latest issue of Total Film reveals that Deadpool & Wolverine is set six years after Deadpool 2, and director Shawn Levy shares that Wade Wilson’s life has taken a few unexpected turns. One of the biggest changes? Vanessa, played by Morena Baccarin, has moved on and found a new boyfriend.
Wade Wilson’s New Reality
In the upcoming film, we find Wade Wilson struggling to adapt to a mundane life far removed from his days as a vigilante.
According to director Shawn Levy, Wade is failing at car sales and resorting to desperate measures like peddling blood-pressure meds for Blind Al to make ends meet. The emotional gut punch comes with the revelation that Vanessa, his great love, has moved on.
“It takes place six years after the last film. He’s proving to be useless at selling cars, hawking Blind Al’s blood-pressure meds to make rent, and his beloved Vanessa has a new boyfriend.”
Morena Baccarin’s return as Vanessa was confirmed last year, with the actress hinting at some significant developments for her character. She expressed excitement about the new direction Vanessa’s story takes and teased that fans might see Vanessa evolve in unexpected ways. There’s speculation she could even suit up as the mutant Copycat, adding another layer to her character’s journey.
“I finished my shooting days on it already,” Baccarin shared, “I think filming is back on again after the strike, and I think it’s going to be quite good! I think fans are in for a fun surprise.”
But what does this mean for Wade? If he had known the consequences of using Cable’s time-travel device to save Vanessa, he might have reconsidered.
Now, he’s left to navigate a world where his past decisions have led to heartbreak and financial struggle. However, this new reality is likely to bring more comedic moments, especially as he suits up again to venture into the multiverse and recruit allies like Wolverine.
Fans are buzzing about potential twists involving Vanessa. Some speculate she might appear as a variant, perhaps even as Lady Deadpool, given the multiverse shenanigans the film promises. This theory aligns with the idea that timelines have been altered, and Vanessa’s relationship with Wade might have taken different paths in various realities.
One fan theory gaining traction online suggests that Vanessa’s new role could be part of a larger narrative shift. By introducing a variant of Vanessa, the film could explore fresh dynamics while honoring the character’s significance in Wade’s life. It’s a bittersweet development for fans who have cherished Wade and Vanessa as one of the most compelling couples in the superhero genre.
We’re really hoping this means we’ll see a variant of Vanessa. Vanessa and Wade are one of the most compatible superhero couples out there. They really get each other’s quirks, and it’s frustrating how movies often split up the pairs that rarely work well together.
Deadpool & Wolverine is shaping up to be a wild ride, full of humor, action, and heart. The six-year time jump since Deadpool 2 allows for a fresh start but also raises questions about what happened during that period. How did Wade and Vanessa’s relationship evolve—or dissolve? What new challenges will they face in this altered timeline?
As we count down to the July 26 release, let’s hope Deadpool & Wolverine will deliver the unexpected. Are you ready to see Wade and Logan tear up the multiverse? How will Vanessa’s new relationship impact Wade’s journey?
