Deadpool 3’s Plot Teases Perfectly Flip The Original X-Men Movie

Summary

• Deadpool 3 may mirror the storyline of Fox's X-Men film in 2000, bringing together Deadpool and Wolverine in a journey across the MCU's multiverse similarly to Wolverine and Rogue's original adventure.
• Deadpool's dynamic with Wolverine will be different from the latter's relationship with Rogue, less sweet and more comedic, adding excitement to the adventure.
• Deadpool 3's similarities to the X-Men franchise make sense as a farewell to the Fox X-Men Universe, creating a full-circle moment for Hugh Jackman's Wolverine and paving the way for new mutant stories in the MCU's future.

Fox's original X-Men film may be perfectly mirrored in Marvel Studios' Deadpool 3, if the Phase 5 film's suspected storyline comes to fruition. Following Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox in 2019, Ryan Reynolds' Wade Wilson, a.k.a. Deadpool, was the first character confirmed to be making the permanent move to the MCU proper, after his appearances in Fox's X-Men Universe in 2016's Deadpool and 2018's Deadpool 2. Further Deadpool films had been planned at Fox, which were expected to focus on Deadpool's X-Force team, but these plans were changed when Reynolds confirmed the development of Deadpool 3 in 2019, with Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige reinforcing this announcement in 2021.
Since then, Shawn Levy's Deadpool 3 has taken some major steps forward, including the announcement that Hugh Jackman would be reprising his role of James "Logan" Howlett, a.k.a. Wolverine. Jackman previously retired from the role after his character's death in 2017's Logan, but Deadpool 3 will mark Wolverine's debut in the MCU proper, and will see him and Reynolds' Deadpool come together for the first time since 2009's reviled X-Men Origins: Wolverine. With Deadpool and Wolverine coming together in Deadpool 3, rumors have begun to circulate regarding the storyline for the upcoming Phase 5 project, which may interestingly mirror the events of 20th Century Fox's original X-Men film from 2000.
