In the film, a cryptic moment depicts Deadpool dying in Thor’s arms. The exact nature or the circumstances surrounding the scene aren’t made evident. However, Reynolds recently took to social media to confirm that the scene wasn’t a gag and holds a deeper significance in the franchise’s future. Here is what Reynolds teased about the Deadpool and Thor scene.

Ryan Reynolds returned as Deadpool in Deadpool & Wolverine, incorporating the character into the wider MCU. The film has grossed over $545.9 million at the global box office and continues to impress fans.

In the film, Deadpool is shown footage of one possible future where he dies in the arms of Thor, played by Chris Hemsworth. Following the film’s release, Reynolds took to social media and seemingly confirmed the scene holds a deeper significance.

Here is what Reynolds said about the Thor cameo on X (formerly Twitter).

In the aforementioned scene, Thor sheds tears as a gravely injured Deadpool takes his final breath. However, when Deadpool sees this moment on the TVA screen, Paradox dismisses it as something Deadpool isn’t supposed to know.

Reynolds’ tweet suggests there is more to Deadpool and Thor’s brief scene in Deadpool & Wolverine. Furthermore, the actor directly commenting on the scene also indicates that the moment is indeed a look at Deadpool’s demise sometime in the MCU’s future.

Ryan Reynolds Could Be Hinting at Deadpool’s Avengers: Secret Wars Fate

Ryan Reynolds addressing the gag scene on social media combined with Deadpool’s entry in the MCU makes it clear that the actor is hinting at the Merc with a Mouth’s role in the upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars.

The Deadpool solo films have followed the titular character’s journey to becoming a hero who serves a greater purpose. With that arc now completed, it is only natural that Deadpool might sacrifice himself for the greater good in Avengers: Secret Wars.

In the 2015 comic book event Secret Wars, which will serve as the basic inspiration for the movie, the Thor Corps played a large role as the police of the Battleworld. Hence, it is safe to say that variants of Thor will have a significant role in the upcoming film.

Meanwhile, Deadpool himself retold the events of the 1984 Secret Wars, in Deadpool’s Secret Secret Wars comic. In the story, Deadpool’s involvement in the event was accidentally erased. Hence, it is possible that the MCU could also forget about Deadpool’s sacrifice.

The upcoming film could see Deadpool and Thor bonding and becoming close friends. Deadpool sacrificing himself and his actions being erased from the memories of other heroes would make for an emotional moment, explaining why Thor is crying in that cryptic scene.

Deadpool & Wolverine is playing in theaters near you.
