In the new trailer, it’s unclear how much time has passed for Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) and his partner Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) since the end of Deadpool 2, or even if they’re exactly the same versions of those characters who appeared in that film.
But when armoured troops from Loki’s Time Variance Authority show up looking for Deadpool, he isn’t exactly surprised to see them or to be whisked away through a portal. Though Deadpool takes a moment to talk directly to the camera about the Disney of it all, TVA agent Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) doesn’t explain what it is that makes mercenary so special. But it’s clear from the trailer that the mercenary’s been recruited to do special work that will send him, among other places, to a battlefield in front of a destroyed 20th Century Fox logo, suggesting that Deadpool & Wolverine will feature characters from Fox’s old-X-Men films.Â
