Major Cameos In Deadpool & Wolverine

Channing Tatum as Gambit

You thought we would start with an obvious. Nah. So technically this is one of the most surprising cameos because Channing Tatum never really got to play Gambit in a standalone movie. The nerds know how much big of a buzz it was when it was back in the day announced Channing is playing Gambit in a solo movie that never got made eventually. Deadpool & Wolverine brings life a full circle for Fly Me To The Moon star whom we meet in the void alongside other mutants as Gambit. He cracks a self-destructing joke and that is a gem.

Hulk

Let's not act like we are surprised okay? We all know there is a storyline where Wolverine is pictured against Hulk and even the rumours have now confirmed that the Marvel bosses are indeed developing a Wolverine vs Hulk movie. The movie for a brief second goes into a timeline in search of a Logan to save the world when Deadpool watches Logan fight with the big green guy. That tease is indeed enough to excite you.

Jennifer Garner as Elektra

Jennifer Garner as Elektra impressed a whole lot of people back in the day and the recall value is enough to explain that. Elektra meets Deadpool in the void where she tells Deadpool that Daredevil is dead and Cassandra Nova killed him. If you remember, Elektra was first introduced in Daredevil and later given her standalone movie. And you add to it, Ben Affleck who plays Daredevil in the 2003 film is actually her ex-husband. When Deadpool offers his condolences to Elektra about Daredevil’s death she says it's fine and winks into the camera. Dark meta-humor for the win!

Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan

Okay, this has to be the cutest cameo of them all. The biggest question since Spider-Man: No Way Home has been where is Happy Hogan all this time? Well, he was busy being the head of management that probably recruits Avengers. His life has come full circle as he meets Wade Wilson who is there to apply for being an Avenger. Happy gets an entire monologue as a redemption for him and the fans who have been missing the OG Avengers.

Henry Cavill as Wolverine

This has to be a futuristic cameo if you look at it. Because there is a chance that we might see a Wolverine-centric movie with Cavill in the lead. Kevin is not wasting a star as massive as Henry Cavill in just a dialogue-less cameo. We meet Henry while Deadpool is busy finding Logan.

Wesley Snipes as Blade

Blade is right now the most doomed MCU project that hasn't moved even a bit since its announcement. But in Deadpool & Wolverine, we meet Wesley Snipes’ version of the character. He has aged but not weakness and that cameo is brilliant and you will know.

Dafne Keen as X-23/Laura

You already knew this one. But it is important to mention her in the list because she is the entry to the young league of superheroes in the MCU that has been shaped by the studio. Dafne is one of the many stuck mutants in the void. She still had those shades she shoplifted in Logan and is more brutal in killing than ever. She has survived the void, what do you expect?

Blake Lively as Lady Deadpool

Blake Lively really spoiled this one for the world. We were curious till she posted that picture and confirmed she is Lady Deadpool. However, she doesn't get to take off her mask even once. So that is indeed a turn-off because what was the point and what is the purpose of this decision?

Chris Evans as Human Torch

The world is so not ready for this cameo and there was a thunderous WHAT in the cinema hall. Chris Evans returns to the MCU but not as Captain America. Then who is he? Human Torch aka Johnny Storm. He did play that character in The Fantastic Four film in case you do not remember it.

Deadpool & Wolverine is now in theatres near you. Stay tuned to OTTplay for more information on this and everything else from the world of streaming and films.
