The full trailer for Marvel‘s Deadpool & Wolverine has finally arrived – watch it below.
Released last night (April 22), Marvel – and Ryan Reynolds – has at long last released a full trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine that finally showcases Hugh Jackman‘s Wolverine. In the action-packed trailer, we’re introduced to Logan/Wolverine as he sits in a bar before being propositioned by Deadpool to join him on a world-saving mission.
The pair don’t seem to get along, trading blows before finally uniting to save Deadpool’s world. Throughout the rest of the trailer – soundtracked by Madonna‘s ‘Like A Prayer’ – we get blink-and-you’ll-miss-it glimpses of other mutants, such as Lady Deathstrike, Azazel and event Ant-Man… sort of.
Deadpool & Wolverine will feature elements of multi-verse traversal, with a closing shot of the trailer showing the pair jumping through a portal commonly used by Doctor Strange and his fellow sorcerers.
Additionally, we see Paradox (Succession‘s Matthew MacFayden) tell Deadpool that the Wolverine he’s dealing with “let down his entire world.” Elsewhere in the trailer, Deadpool remarks that he’s familiar with older versions of Wolverine having trouble getting their claws out.
Deadpool & Wolverine is due for release on July 26 in cinemas.
It will mark the third Deadpool movie, as well as Hugh Jackman’s ninth outing as Wolverine after previously saying he’d retire from the role following 2017’s Logan. Reynolds and Jackman’s upcoming film will mark their on-screen reunion for the first time since 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Deadpool 2 scored a four-star review from NME‘s Nick Reilly upon its release in 2018. Reilly wrote: “Deadpool 2 is the near perfect package, creating a second chapter that maintains the anarchic spirit of the original while offering some surprisingly successful lamentations on the nature of love, loss and vulnerability. A third installment, you sense, makes perfect sense.”
Earlier this month, Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy addressed rumours that Taylor Swift could appear in the film. The singer has been at the centre of speculation over a potential surprise appearance in the upcoming Marvel film as superhero Dazzler.
However, when asked by Entertainment Tonight about the rumours, Levy replied: “That is hardly confirmed nor denied in this interview. I’m going to literally walk out of the frame and save myself, otherwise Ryan [Reynolds]’s taking a hit [out] on me.”
