An official trailer for the upcoming superhero film Deadpool & Wolverine was released on Sunday.
In the clip, Ryan Reynolds was seen in character as the Merc With A Mouth as he suited up to take on the Time Variance Authority and decide the fate of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The feature – which had its production conclude last month – also marks the official return of Hugh Jackman to his longtime role as James ‘Logan’ Howlett, better known as Wolverine.
The trailer began with Deadpool, whose real name is Wade Wilson, celebrating his birthday in the company of several of his friends, and he gives a short speech where he graciously declares himself to be the ‘luckiest man alive.’
The superhero is then visited by TVA agents, and after they pulled out electric batons, he fires off an R-rated gag. ‘Pegging isn’t new for me, friendo, but it is new for Disney,’ before glancing at the camera.

Deadpool is pulled through a portal and wakes up in the company of Paradox, portrayed by Matthew Macfadyen, and after informing the mercenary that he unconsciously soiled himself, Reynold’s character quipped: ‘I wasn’t unconscious.’
Paradox informs the superhero that he has a ‘chance to be a hero among heroes’ and leads him to a control room featuring footage taken across the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
After Deadpool makes his way towards a Wolverine-esque figure lounging in a casino, the character states: ‘Your little cinematic universe is about to change forever. I’m the messiah. I am…Marvel Jesus.’
The superhero then takes on several TVA agents in a variety of locations, and after one is spirited away by an unseen force, he exclaims: ‘Oh my f***!’
The mercenary goes on to violently dispatch various assailants with both guns and his signature katanas, and Pyro, played by Aaron Stanford, remarks: ‘God, I love this part!’
Deadpool is later blasted through a cement slab, and is approached by Wolverine, who remains off-screen as the former quips: ‘Don’t just stand there, you ape, give me a hand up.’
Wolverine then displays his claws, and the trailer ends after Wilson remarks: ‘Nope, I’m actually okay, thank you very much!’
Development on Deadpool & Wolverine commenced in the late 2010s, and it was confirmed that the feature was in the works in December of 2019.
