This Marvel Theory Explains How Deadpool & Wolverine Secretly Sets Up Avengers 5 & 6
Warning! This article contains spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine.
Summary
This somewhat differed from what many were expecting going into the movie, with the hope being that Deadpool & Wolverine's multiversal Easter eggs would directly set up Phase 6 of the MCU. While this certainly happened in some ways, the film felt more like a capper of the Deadpool trilogy while still leaving off its characters for future appearances. That said, there is one way Deadpool & Wolverine could have teased the story of Avengers: Doomsday and its sequel, Avengers: Secret Wars, as explained by a neat Marvel theory.

Custom Image by Kevin Erdmann Firstly, it is worth exploring the concept from Deadpool & Wolverine that could tie into Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars. The plot point in question is the idea of Anchor Beings. In Deadpool & Wolverine, Mr. Paradox explains that Anchor Beings are individuals who are integral to each branch of the Marvel multiverse; If an Anchor Being is killed or removed from its timeline, that timeline begins slowly deteriorating until it is destroyed completely. While Paradox states this can take thousands of years, Anchor Beings are still integral to the overall multiverse.
Through the concept of Anchor Beings, the entire story of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars could be formulated, tying Deadpool & Wolverine into the Multiverse Saga...
In the Fox X-Men movie timeline, Wolverine was the Anchor Being, who died in Logan. The Wolverine found by Deadpool in Deadpool & Wolverine then replaced him, keeping the Fox timeline alive and well. Through the concept of Anchor Beings, the entire story of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars could be formulated, tying Deadpool & Wolverine into the Multiverse Saga in the integral way many thought it would be before release.
Marvel Theory: Anchor Beings Are The MCU’s Version Of The Molecule Men Anchor Beings Could Be The MCU's Stand-Ins For Secret Wars Comic Characters![]()
Now that they have been introduced in Deadpool & Wolverine, Anchor Beings could be tied to the future of the MCU in a massive way based on the source material. In the 2015 Marvel Comics run of Secret Wars, Doctor Doom discovers that a group of beings named the Beyonders are experimenting with destroying the multiverse. To do so, the Beyonders place a powerful individual named the Molecule Man in every branch of the Marvel multiverse which, when activated by the Beyonders, destroys each timeline.
Upon learning of this plot, Doom and Earth-616's Molecule Man travel the multiverse to stave off the Beyonders' plan by killing Molecule Men in various universes. Unbeknownst to Doom, the killing of Molecule Man causes mass incursions and the multiverse begins to deteriorate anyway. This eventually leads Doom to use the Beyonders' power to gather what is left of the Marvel multiverse and create Battleworld, where he rules as God Emperor. This leads to Secret Wars, where the heroes left combine to defeat Doom and the Beyonders to restore the multiverse.

Using this format, Deadpool & Wolverine could tie into Avengers 5 & 6 by making Anchor Beings the MCU's equivalent of Molecule Men. After all, the concept is similar. If a Molecule Man is killed in the Secret Wars comics, an incursion is caused and the universe is destroyed; if an Anchor Being dies in the MCU, that timeline begins to decay until it does not exist. In Avengers: Doomsday, it could be explored that Doom has figured out that Anchor Beings were created by the Beyonders, taking on the task of traveling the multiverse to destroy them and save the multiverse from annihilation.
Like Thanos before him, Doom would then be unequivocally a villain, though one who has noble intentions. Where Thanos wanted to wipe out 50% of the universe's population to ultimately save every planet remaining, Doom would be killing Anchor Beings to stop the Beyonders from destroying the multiverse. At the end of Avengers: Doomsday, Doom could figure out that killing Anchor Beings has resulted in the destruction of their respective timelines as outlined in Deadpool & Wolverine, creating Battleworld to save what is left and leading into Avengers: Secret Wars.
The Avengers in Avengers: Doomsday could travel the multiverse after learning of Doom's plan, attempting to stop him from killing Anchor Beings as they know of its implications.
Anchor Beings Would Allow For Major MCU Cameos In Avengers 5 & 6 Past Marvel Franchises Could Possess Popular Anchor Beings Close If Doom does create Battleworld, it could be the case that the universes he combines are those from Marvel's cinematic past...
With this story outline for Avengers 5, Marvel Studios would not only craft a compelling villain, a good story, and a gray area conflict in which both Doom and the Avengers are somewhat right but also set up Avengers: Secret Wars. If Doom does create Battleworld, it could be the case that the universes he combines are those from Marvel's cinematic past. Naturally, the mainline MCU would be one. The others could be Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man universe, Andrew Garfield's franchise, the Fox X-Men timeline, whatever timeline The Fantastic Four: First Steps takes place in, and any other from Marvel's extensive cinematic history.
In the Secret Wars comics, Doom uses the power of the Beyonders to craft Battleworld. He could do the same in the MCU by using their power to pull together Anchor Beings and their timelines from across the multiverse after discovering that killing them was the wrong move. Then, heroes like Maguire and Garfield's Spider-Men, the Fox X-Men, the mainline MCU heroes, and the team from The Fantastic Four: First Steps to name a few, could coalesce on Battleworld. Then, they would all fight against Doom and the Beyonders to restore the multiverse, stemming from Deadpool & Wolverine's concept of Anchor Beings.

Summary
- Deadpool & Wolverine included the concept of Anchor Beings who, if killed, cause the deterioration of their timeline.
- Anchor Beings could be the MCU's substitution of Molecule Men, the object of Doom's campaign, from 2015's Secret Wars comics.
- This Anchor Beings theory suggests a tie-in to past Marvel franchises, setting up major cameos in future Avengers films.
This somewhat differed from what many were expecting going into the movie, with the hope being that Deadpool & Wolverine's multiversal Easter eggs would directly set up Phase 6 of the MCU.
