Ryan Reynolds Hints at a Revolutionary Approach to Post-credit Scenes in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’

One of the most anticipated upcoming MCU releases is undoubtedly ‘Deadpool & Wolverine.’ This movie signifies several significant milestones: it marks Deadpool’s first appearance in the MCU and is the only MCU film slated for release in 2024. This strategic move aims to restore some of the faith lost by fans due to several poorly received movies in recent years.

The film is already creating excitement by selling tickets well in advance of its release, breaking traditional blockbuster norms. As part of the ticket marketing campaign, new footage unveils a hidden QR code in the trailer, leading viewers to a humorous disclaimer from Reynolds about the film.

We’re very excited to be joining you July 26. Many of you are very excited. But we should set the table correctly. This film is as paper thin as a sequel to Battlefield Earth. We’re mostly going to beat each other senseless, make enemies with Disney, tell a few dick jokes, make a few jokes at my expense, make a lot of jokes at Hugh’s expense, and completely sidestep Marvel’s mandated after-credits sequence, which if you haven’t figured it out yet, is always just a commercial for another movie which will invariably end with a commercial for another movie. So sit back, relax, let us lower your IQ and raise your heart rate while we travel to a vapid Dreamland, a place where grown men and grown women walk around in tights, and act like it’s not a giant cultural cry for help. This is CINEMA.

Reynolds astutely identifies the issue with post-credits scenes in the MCU, highlighting the sometimes awkward transition from the movie’s conclusion to a promotional segment for another film, albeit wrapped in humorous references.

The QR code in the trailer leads to a behind-the-scenes clip with Ryan Reynolds, confirming that “Deadpool & Wolverine” won’t include a post-credits scene. However, conflicting information arises from another official video that omits any mention of post-credits scenes, leaving uncertainty among fans.

Just months ago, industry insiders hyped up the movie’s post-credit scene, with one leaker suggesting it would be “mind-blowing.” Deadpool’s creator confirmed this leak, and Cosmic Circus’ Alex Perez added to the anticipation, indicating that everyone is eagerly awaiting more details to freely discuss online.
