But the continuation to the film that technically began the partake in X - Men universe could be what rights the ship .

Deadpool 2will follow its forerunner by ply lover with the first true stand - alone dealership in theX - Mencontinuity . And while it ’s work force down the silliest superhero movie there is , it may just do what a bit of otherX - Menfilms have failed to accomplish : connect the timelines .

Then there ’s Cable ’s cybernetic sleeve , one of the signature view of the character . at last , you could discern the techno - organic computer virus that afflict Cable creeping up his neck opening .

Like Deadpool andDomino , Cable was created by Rob Liefeld and has featured in a turn of X - Men story in the comedian . The Logos of   water flea and a clone of Jean Grey , Nathan Summers was endure in a dystopian time to come with the power of telepathy and telekinesis .

The Teddy Bear

Hanging on Cable ’s unexpended hip is a pulse - up teddy bear . At first blush , this seems like it could just be a agency forDeadpool 2to insert some of the main reference ’s notorious irreverence into a character that ’s general represent as grim and dour . mirror the unicorn Captain Boomerang has inSuicide Squad , the stuffed brute could just be a small personality quirkiness . It could also be a reference to a promo trope from the firstDeadpoolthat featured   Wade   pointing a gun at a teddy bear . But another possibility subsist that could have massive ramifications for the rest of theX - Menfranchise .

One of the biggest modern moments for the sport in recent comics was Scarlet Witch uttering the idiom " No more mutant . " With those three words , she ravage the mutant population on Earth and keep any new mutant from being born . In 2007 , however , an exception was introduced .

Eventually , she ’d return to the present and help reignite the mutant race and even bring the Phoenix Force back to Earth .

How Hope Could Connect the X-Men Timelines

While we do n’t recognise much about Cable inDeadpool 2 , he will keep back his condition as a refugee from the time to come seek to back the past a better place . And given that one of the core group thing he bring with him is a teddy bear , it seems extremely potential that Hope subsist in theX - Menuniverse . While Scarlet Witch does n’t appear to be a factor , her   entire plot is improbable to have in a Fox film . That said , anotherX - Menmovie may have already set up a standardized set of lot .

InLogan , we learn that the future of theX - Menuniverse is one where most mutants have been wiped out . Even more telling , but no newfangled mutants have been give birth in some time . While a figure of young experiments exist , we could see Hope emerge as the first new mutant in this dystopian time .   From there , we could see Cable travel back to the time ofLoganand save Hope , convey her even further into the future where things are darker still . By then go back to the present whereDeadpool 2takes seat , Fox could found a through line of business fromDeadpool 2to the end ofDays of Future PasttoLogan .

This tethering would hardly transfer all of the consequence that have arisen over the years with theX - Menseries and its confounding persistence , but it could help connect the outcome ofDeadpool 2with the magnanimous creation we ’ve see .

By doing so , we could see more of X-23 and the young mutants she runs off with . In fact , themuch - talk about X-23 moviecould feature Hope ’s birth and Cable ’s interposition . Cable and Hope ’s adventures across time could also   factor into the upcomingX - Forcemovie . And already , more grounds has emergedthat the Mutant Messiah may appear inDeadpool 2 .


Deadpool 2may not seem like the most probable candidate for establishing a coherent world and course - slump continuity , but the arrival of Cable give a number of doors for   Fox to iron out their timeline . The existence of Hope also permit Fox to explore all sort of fresh stories and metre periods with yet another untested mutant at the head . Hopefully , we ’ll sleep with more about Cable ’s teddy have a bun in the oven before long , but for now it ’s yet another interesting composition of next year’sDeadpool 2 .
