The first Deadpool & Wolverine trailer is one big joke about Marvel’s past

Wade Wilson is being recruited into the TVA.

It’s going to take something special to get people as hyped for Marvel’s movies as they used to be, and the first trailer Deadpool & Wolverine — the studio’s first R-rated cape flick — makes it seem like it has just the thing. 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. 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.
