Deadpool & Wolverine’s Ending Leaves The Door Open For 3 Missing Characters To Return

:0:0

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine.
Summary

Deadpool & Wolverine featured several returning characters from Fox's Deadpool franchise.
Cable, Domino and Firefist were curiously missing from Deadpool & Wolverine, and their absence wasn't properly explained.
Deadpool & Wolverine's ending means Cable, Domino and Firefist can return in the MCU's future, as Earth-10005 is safe.

While some of Deadpool's best allies were missing from Deadpool & Wolverine, it's still possible they could return in future MCU projects. Deadpool & Wolverine marked the returns of many characters associated with Ryan Reynolds' Merc with a Mouth, including several who took part in 20th Century Fox's previous Deadpool movies. The likes of Stefan Kapičić's Colossus, Brianna Hildebrand's Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Leslie Uggams' Blind Al and Karan Soni's Dopinder, among others, returned, but other notable characters were curiously unseen.
Deadpool's closest friends from Earth-10005 didn't have a huge role in Deadpool & Wolverine, but they were the catalyst for Deadpool's attempts to save his universe from Mr. Paradox and, later, Cassandra Nova. Hilariously, Rob Delaney's Peter, the human X-Force member from Deadpool 2, had the largest role of all Deadpool's supporting cast, but while it was great to get to know Peter better, some major Deadpool franchise characters were ignored. Not all hope is lost, however, as Deadpool & Wolverine's ending ensured these missing characters could still return in the MCU's future.

Cable, Domino & Firefist Were Missing From Deadpool & Wolverine, Despite Deadpool 2’s Ending Close At the end of Deadpool 2, Cable used the last of his time travel technology to save Deadpool's life, claiming he wanted to remain in the present day to ensure the world's protection. This ended the fight against Russell Collins' Firefist, and seemed to establish something of a new X-Force team, replacing the version that had been fully wiped out by the wind earlier in the movie. This X-Force-style team comprised Deadpool, Cable, Domino, Firefist, Colossus and Dopinder, but only half this group returned in Deadpool & Wolverine.
The absences of Cable, Domino and Firefist in Deadpool & Wolverine were confusing, as each had survived Deadpool 2, and there had been no word of them leaving their new found family. Each of these actors denied their involvement in the lead-up to Deadpool & Wolverine's release, Zazie Beetz to Decider, Josh Brolin to The Playlist, and Julian Dennison to CBR. However, their absences weren't explained in Deadpool & Wolverine itself, and the ending of the Phase 5 movie could have left the door open for their return.

6 Earth-10005’s Survival Means Cable, Domino & Firefist Can Still Return

Prior to Deadpool & Wolverine's release, it was heavily theorized that the movie would feature the destruction of 20th Century Fox's X-Men Universe, dubbed Earth-10005. This would have explained the absences of several notable characters from the two-decade-long franchise, and would have given Marvel Studios the perfect opportunity to recast and reinvent the X-Men team for the MCU. However, this didn't happen, as Deadpool and Wolverine stopped Cassandra Nova's destructive plan and saved Earth-10005.
The fact that Earth-10005 is still around means that future MCU projects can revisit this alternate reality. This will likely happen if Deadpool is to cross over permanently into the MCU's main continuity. This means that Josh Brolin, Zazie Beetz and Julian Dennison can still return as Cable, Domino and Firefist, respectively. These heroes would be a huge asset to Deadpool's future MCU adventures, and to the franchise as a whole, as they were some of the best parts of Deadpool 2, and were sorely missed in Deadpool & Wolverine.
