Deadpool & Wolverine Almost Made X-Men: Apocalypse"s Best Scene Even Better & I"m Annoyed It Didn"t

New concept art from Deadpool & Wolverine has revealed a new variant, which I'm annoyed wasn't used in the MCU movie, as this could have improved on the best scene from 2016's X-Men: Apocalypse. Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's debut in the MCU explored the multiverse more than most previous movies, bridging the gap between Earth-616 and Earth-10005, and introducing many new variants to live-action. Having said that, I think Deadpool & Wolverine could have showcased even more of the multiverse's potential, and new concept art has proven me right.
One of my favorite moments in Deadpool & Wolverine saw Ryan Reynolds' titular Merc with a Mouth journey to several different realities on the hunt for a replacement Wolverine. He meets a Wolverine of comic-accurate height, Patch, Old Man Logan, Fever Dream Logan, a Hulk-fighting Wolverine, the Cavillrine and the Wolverine from Marvel Comics' Age of Apocalypse, but there were many Wolverine variants missing from this line-up. I wanted to see one missing variant in particular, exploring a key moment in Wolverine's history that X-Men: Apocalypse already attempted.

2 Wolverine’s Escape Was X-Men: Apocalypse’s Best Moment Hugh Jackman Made A Cameo Appearance In The 1980s-Set X-Men: Apocalypse Close Let's take it back for a moment. Remember X-Men: Apocalypse? I tend to consider X-Men: Apocalypse to be every Marvel Comics fan's worst nightmare, but every casual X-Men franchise viewer's solid watch, as the movie threw Marvel Comics' history away, but delivered a strong story nonetheless. While it had its problems, X-Men: Apocalypse did include one of the X-Men franchise's best moments, as Hugh Jackman's Wolverine made a cameo appearance during his escape from the Weapon X program at Alkali Lake.
This was probably the closest we ever got to seeing a comic-accurate version of Wolverine in 20th Century Fox's X-Men franchise. Jackman was in very little clothing, and sported a retro helmet and wiring on his head and in his body. This image was strikingly similar to Wolverine's outfit during his escape from Weapon X in Marvel Comics, so I was overjoyed to see this play out in live-action. However, this scene still didn't match up perfectly, but Deadpool & Wolverine had the chance to improve on it, and I'm annoyed Marvel Studios didn't use it.
Deadpool & Wolverine Almost Made Wolverine’s Weapon X Escape Even More Comic-Accurate Wolverine's Weapon X Storyline Was Detailed In Marvel Comics In 1991 In September, Marvel Studios concept artist Phil Saunders revealed a design for a Wolverine variant that unfortunately didn't make it into Deadpool & Wolverine. This design reimagined Wolverine's escape from the Weapon X facility, but would have seen Hugh Jackman sport a much more comic-accurate costume. Rather than the dulled-down headgear from X-Men: Apocalypse, Deadpool & Wolverine's Weapon X Wolverine variant would have worn a full 1980s-style helmet, fit with a pink visor, just like his Marvel Comics counterpart.
I'm obsessed with Saunders' design for a comic-accurate Wolverine in Deadpool & Wolverine, especially since this image looks like it's taken directly from Barry Windsor-Smith's Marvel Comics Presents #79 from 1991, which detailed Wolverine's escape from the Weapon X program. Including this version of Wolverine in the MCU's Phase 5 would have put X-Men: Apocalypse's Weapon X escape scene to shame. I would have loved to have seen this moment play out more faithfully to Marvel Comics, especially with Deadpool & Wolverine's R-rating.
I’m Annoyed This Wolverine Variant Wasn’t Included In Deadpool & Wolverine Deadpool & Wolverine Didn't Include Enough Wolverine Variants Of course, I loved seeing the different versions of Wolverine included in a montage towards the beginning of Deadpool & Wolverine, but I was also a bit disappointed with this moment. This scene was over incredibly quickly, after only showing us a few different variants of Wolverine - I wanted more. Deadpool's numerous variants comprised the Deadpool Corps, and had a meaty role in the movie, but Wolverine's variants were practically ignored. It would have been great to see more Wolverine variants in Deadpool & Wolverine, especially comic-accurate ones such as the Weapon X escapee.
