Chris Evans Opens Up About Extreme Monologue In Deadpool & Wolverine Post-Credits Scene: “I Don’t Get To Say Dialogue Like This”

Warning: This article does include MAJOR spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine.

Marvel Cinematic Universe star Chris Evans opens up about Johnny Storm’s lengthy and R-rated monologue in the Deadpool & Wolverine post-credits scene. The arrival of Deadpool & Wolverine didn’t only bring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman into the MCU timeline, but also allowed characters from the Fox-Marvel era to shine once again. One of them was an MCU alum, as Evans got to reprise his role as the Human Torch from the original Fantastic Four films, as he crossed paths with Wade Wilson and Logan.

In a new interview with People, Evans looked back on getting to be part of the Deadpool & Wolverine cast and reprise his Marvel hero from the early 2000s. The Captain America actor also talked about how his monologue for the Deadpool & Wolverine post-credits scene came to be when Reynolds approached him about it, sharing the following:

It was a couple years ago and I got a text from Ryan [Reynolds], we’re buddies. He just said, ‘Listen, if you don’t like this idea, no worries whatsoever. But I have something that could really bring the house down and would let you play a character from your past.’ I mean, honestly, I would do anything Ryan asked,” Evans says. “He gave me a great cameo in Free Guy already, and I just trust him completely.

So the chance to be Johnny again, I couldn’t pass up. I loved it. It was fun to shoot, fun to watch, all of it. Ryan was like, ‘Listen, if we need cue cards…’ and I was like, ‘Cue cards? I’m showing up off-book,’ I don’t get to say dialogue like this. Trust me. I’m going to enjoy every second of this. Memorized.

Could Chris Evans Still Return As Johnny Storm Despite Deadpool & Wolverine’s Ending?

As Evans’ Human Torch was one of the most memorable Deadpool & Wolverine cameos, Johnny’s story came to an end in the midst of the film as Cassandra Nova had him killed. However, if there is any takeaway that audience members should have from superhero and comic book movies, it is that just because a character is killed off, it doesn’t always mean the end. There are a number of ways that Evans could still play Johnny again after Deadpool & Wolverine.

With the multiverse at their disposal, Evans could easily play a new Johnny variant, who may have had a very different outcome than the one Evans played in the original Fantastic Four movies. While neither of them appeared in the movie, Johnny’s Reed Richards was name-dropped as one of the many references and Easter eggs in Deadpool & Wolverinewhich suggests that Ioan Gruffudd’s character and the rest of the Fantastic Four are still alive. Perhaps on the Earth that this new Human Torch comes from, he lost his allies and had to go on without them.

As Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars are coming up, it would be emotionally powerful to see the original Fantastic Four cross paths with a new Johnny variant, as both sides would have to deal with the fact that they are looking at someone who looks like their fallen allies. Phase 6 would honestly be the best time to approach a story like that, as The Multiverse Saga is rumored to end with a soft reboot for the MCU. But until that happens, the MCU audience can relive Deadpool & Wolverine and all its fun cameos in theaters.
