‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ has one end-credits scene — here’s what happens

After the movie ends, fans are treated to archival footage from past Marvel films before an end credits scene. Here’s what you need to know.

The credits roll alongside behind-the-scenes footage from the ‘X-Men’ movies and other past Marvel films

Jackman has played Wolverine since the 2000 ensemble movie “X-Men.” He reprised the role for additional “X-Men” sequels and the stand-alone Wolverine franchise. Although the character sacrificed himself in the 2017 movie “Logan,” Jackman returns as a Wolverine variant in “Deadpool & Wolverine.”

Meanwhile, Reynolds made his debut as Wade Wilson in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” in 2009. Years later, he overhauled the character and gave the Merc with a Mouth new life in a wildly successful “Deadpool” franchise.

The footage shown to the right of the credits pays homage to their lengthy Marvel careers, to the tune of Green Day’s “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life).”

The montage includes footage of Jackman on the set of the “X-Men” movies with Patrick Stewart (Charles Xavier/Professor X), Halle Berry (Storm), and his other costars. It also features footage of Chris Evans on the set of the original “Fantastic Four” films and snippets of scenes from the “Fantastic Four” reboot, “X-Men: Apocalypse,” “X-Men: Dark Phoenix,” and other Marvel movies.

It concludes with the 20th Century Fox logo, in yet another meta jab at the 2019 Disney/Fox merger.

The end-credits scene gives Chris Evans even more screen time as Johnny Storm

In “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Chris Evans reprises his role as the lovable-yet-cocky Johnny Storm/Human Torch. Although the actor is primarily associated with his part as Steve Rogers/Captain America in the MCU, he previously played Johnny in “Fantastic Four” (2005) and “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer” (2007).

Deadpool and Wolverine encounter Johnny in a wasteland called The Void. Then they’re captured and taken to the lair of villain Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin).

While in the convoy together, Johnny explains that The Void is a metaphysical junkyard where people are sent by the Time Variance Authority (TVA) before being annihilated by an entity known as Alioth. He says that people who end up here are either eaten by Alioth or work for Cassandra.

When Deadpool meets Cassandra, he repeats all the rude comments that Johnny made about her in the convoy verbatim. Johnny denies speaking out against Cassandra, but she viciously kills him anyway by ripping the skin from his body telepathically leaving behind his skeleton and a puddle of blood.

Marvel end-credits scenes often tease what’s to come in future projects. Other times, they’re tongue-in-cheek scenes that are inconsequential.

The “Deadpool & Wolverine” end-credits scene milks Evans’ cameo for everything it’s worth by elaborating on the moment that led to Johnny’s brutal death.

In the scene, Wade stands inside the TVA room alone and breaks the fourth wall, telling the audience that he’s tired of the rumors that he got Johnny killed. To prove that he wasn’t lying about everything Johnny said, Deadpool plays back footage from the convoy on one of the TVA’s retro TVs. The footage clearly shows Johnny going on a crude, expletive-filled rant about why he despises Cassandra.

It’s unclear where in the MCU Deadpool will show up next, but he’s clearly satisfied with the way this film ends.

“Gotcha, fuckface,” Deadpool says before walking away.
