Rumored Iron Man Cameo in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Explains Wild Post-Credit Scene and Its Link to ‘Secret Wars’

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is now less than a month from release. The movie is expected to feature numerous cameos and variants, some confirmed through trailers and teasers, while others remain rumored.

One persistent rumor over the past year is that the film will lead directly into ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ and include a cameo by Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man.

Since Iron Man’s death, fans have naturally called for his return. This is now possible in the Multiverse Saga through variants, as seen with characters like Loki and Gamora.

The latest rumor suggests that Iron Man was originally planned to appear in the ‘Fantastic Four’ movie, but those plans didn’t materialize.

Excitement grew when several notable industry insiders revealed that RDJ was originally slated to reprise his role in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine.’

According to the leak, the cameo would link Iron Man and ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ to ‘Secret Wars,’ where Iron Man is already heavily rumored to appear. RDJ confirmed months ago that he’d be willing to reprise his role as Iron Man, a character he feels is integral to his identity.

But what’s all the buzz about the post-credits scene? Following the release of the first trailer, notable industry insiders have been raving about an insane post-credits scene in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine,’ expressing amazement at how Levy and Reynolds allegedly pulled it off.

This post-credits scene has also been confirmed by Rob Liefeld, the creator of Deadpool.

It’s highly probable that Iron Man’s cameo was planned and perhaps even filmed, but it didn’t make it into the final cut for reasons we might learn after the movie’s release. Remember, ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ underwent smaller reshoots two months ago, likely to replace that post-credit scene.
