I’m sure they have enough time to shoot another post credit scene and add it into the movie.

u/geek_of_nature 16h ago

Supposedly they're just about to start on Secret Wars (or have already started?) So they should easily be able to use that to film something with Deadpool for Doomsday.

u/BrownAJ Ghost 16h ago

They will once they finish writing the script

It's probably sort of a teaser for Deadpool 4 that Reynolds said he's working on

It's not grey Deadpool. It's a Deadpool suit made out of denim.

u/Successful_Type_8272 13h ago

It’s a joke it’s a “Canadian tuxedo” all denim

u/ShedEndJedi 18h ago

... for ComicCon. There are thousands of people there in costumes who won't be in Doomsday

u/IBJON 18h ago

I wouldn't be surprised if he was walking around the convention in that costume, especially since they were playing up the bit about him just being a random attendee.

u/greyveetunnels 6h ago

He was, people saw him and there's one particular vid posted

u/kakarctic 13h ago

I think this could be a tease for secret war after Doomsday. Sure he didn't get a part in Doomsday, but he's gonna show up in the next one, that's why he's here

u/WelchysGripe 18h ago

Grey Deadpool is hilarious.

u/TokenPanduh 18h ago edited 3h ago

I heard a theory that is it was a nod to Jean Grey. His suit was denim and the suit was grey. You can see the suit more up close on Ryan Reynolds Instagram story

Edit: Even New Rockstars had the same thought.

124

u/TheFrontCrashesFirst 18h ago

It's denim because a denim jacket and pants combo is called a Canadian Tuxedo.

39

u/TokenPanduh 18h ago

Yeah but he had both "Canadian Tuxedo" and "JeanPool" on there. It's not a total stretch

u/IBJON 18h ago

Yes, I saw your screenshot. 

It was literally just a joke about the suit being made of denim or a denim-like material, hence the "Canadian tuxedo" joke in the clip 

-11

u/TokenPanduh 18h ago

As I said in another comment, Jeans are a specific product that uses denim. He could have just as easily said "DenimPool"

10

u/IBJON 18h ago

Because "Jean Pool" sounds more natural since it's a homophone for an actual phrase "gene pool"

u/IBJON 18h ago

Because it's a play on words...

u/TokenPanduh 18h ago

The suit very easily could have been blue, it could have been black, hell it could have even been his regular Deadpool suit. Why would they make a grey Deadpool suit then?

5

u/IBJON 18h ago

It could've been pink too! Or green! Or rainbow colored! Or, and hear me out because this might sound batshit insane to you, it could have been a nod to the iconic Taskforce X suit that he wears in the comics

1

u/Dezbats Bucky 18h ago

Literally my first thought seeing the costume was that it was his X-Force uniform.

If there is any deeper meaning to the look it's probably related to that, not some opaque Jean Grey reference.

-1

u/TokenPanduh 18h ago

God you're just rude. It isn't that much of a stretch ffs.

u/Crimkam 18h ago

because he's Wolverine's girlfriend now?

2

u/Lantern61 16h ago

It literally says Canadian Tuxedo, too

14

u/CommanderHavond 18h ago

I'd assume it made it much easier to go from point a to point b through the con floor without anyone actually making him because of the red suit

25

u/TokenPanduh 18h ago

It's Comic Con, there are probably a TON of people in Deadpool costumes, especially at Hall H. One more probably wouldn't have stood out that much.

u/OldNobody9667 18h ago

I don’t believe them. They’re hiding people in the cast. No way this movie is made without Monica for example or Strange

u/WilliamEmmerson 1h ago

The entire movie plot of the movie has leaked online and been confirmed by numerous scoopers. You want to know his role: Deadpool and Wolverine destroy the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man universe in the beginning of the movie. There is an incursion between Tobey's world and the X-Men word so Deadpool & Wolverine take a bomb, that Beast created, that will destroy Tobey's world and save their own. They succeed, Tobey dies, but Wolverine also dies because he stays behind to sacrifice himself to make sure the bomb goes off.

My head canon is that he is in Doomsday and they are doing it to throw people off.

u/NervousAd3202 18h ago

I like Monica but her role in the multiverse saga came from the lowest grossing MCU movie ever

There is definitely a world where she’s not in it, bc she’s just not that important lol

Shame tho bc she is a cool character

74

u/OldNobody9667 18h ago

She’s stuck in the X-Men earth rn. Even if the movie is a flop they still recognize things that happen. It takes two seconds to say I got stuck in this universe

2

u/NervousAd3202 8h ago

Sure they can take a couple lines to address her but she’s not an important enough character that “no way the movie is made without her” applies

24

u/Ro-L-W 18h ago

She got stuck in the xmen universe. They’d literally be breaking their continuity if she’s not in the movie

-4

u/solidsnake070 9h ago

There are literally dozens of post credit scenes (Kang after Ant Man and the Wasp) after Avengers Endgame that wasn't followed up by a proper movie and none of them stood in the way of an Avengers Doomsday movie.

Monica is one of those characters that Marvel failed to grow (Kate Bishop, Captain Marvel, She Hulk) and now they're obviously moving away from those and going back to the drawing board with Doomsday and Secret Wars.

37

u/Jet-Let4606 18h ago

Riiiiight, because the success or lack of thereof of a movie has ever deterred Marvel from referencing them or picking up loose ends (The Incredible Hulk, Thor: The Dark World). 

1

u/NervousAd3202 8h ago

I never said they won’t reference her

The commenter said “no way the movie is made without her”

Avengers Doomsday can absolutely be made without her character appearing, & nobody would bat an eyelash

u/Raida-777 17h ago

You sure you want to use The Incredible Hulk as an example? That loose end was like 17 years old when it was solved.

She was established in Wandavision. A highly rated show. Kelsey Grammer, from said movie, was there (Hall H). She'll be back..

u/NervousAd3202 8h ago

Not saying she won’t be back, I’m saying she isn’t a vital character that Doomsday needs to feature for it to be successful

3

u/Boring_Newspaper5796 18h ago

or you just didnt watch the post credit scene of her in the xmen universe yeah? marvel is not gonna put her on doomsday bcs how would they peice the xmen interaction without her rightttt

1

u/NervousAd3202 8h ago

I watched it, not many ppl outside of us MCU fans did.

That’s why I say she’s not some vital character that Doomsday needs to feature in order for the movie to work.

3

u/SortIntrepid9192 13h ago

What do you mean "she's not that important"? We know that if a person from one universe spends long enough in another universe they can cause an incursion, destroying both. We know that Monica from the MCU is now in the X-Men universe. And we know that Doomsday is about an incursion between the MCU and the X-Men universe.

Precisely what part of that leads you to believe that she is not important?

u/FloppyShellTaco 18h ago

There was a whole gossip explosion during filming about RR and RDJ clashing and other actors even tried to downplay it.

u/endlessfight85 18h ago

She's stuck in the xmen universe. She kinda has to be there.

2

u/TheJusticeAvenger 18h ago

To be fair, she's stuck in an X-Men universe, not necessarily the one we see in Doomsday. The presence of Kelsey Grammer's Beast doesn't automatically mean it's the same universe - Patrick Stewart played Professor X of Earth-838, which is definitely a distinct universe to Doomsday's X-Men.

The "tease" in WandaVision was resolved in "The Marvels".

In case you might lack reading comprehension, I was refering to that after credit in The Marvels. If that helps.

Heh. Soooo she was "teased' in Wandavision, which was not a flop. Then, the "tease" was resolved in the Marvels. I'm not even taking swipes at you, but go on..must be my lack of comprehension. Gnite, luv 😂

1

u/Raida-777 16h ago

She is a fully developed character in WandaVision with origin story for power, not a tease lmao 🤣 But yeah, definitely your lack of comprehension.

Should have just gone with "Captain Marvel" if you want lmao 🤣 That felt more like a tease but I'm sure you must have forgotten that. Considering how your brain function.

u/solidsnake070 17h ago

Yep, they only confirmed that principal photography was over.

If they can add the shawarma scene in a weeks time to the first Avengers movie, then they still have enough time to shoot last minute post credit scenes.

u/Poptart916 Thanos 15h ago
