Marvel fans are buzzing after Ryan Reynolds posted a cryptic image blending the Avengers’ iconic “A” with the anarchist symbol — a move that’s fueling speculation Deadpool is about to join Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. With Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars on the horizon, the timing couldn’t be more intriguing. Here are five clues pointing to Deadpool’s big MCU crossover.
1. The Logo Tease That Broke the Internet
Ryan Reynolds’ social media post had no caption — just the merged “A” image. Fans instantly linked it to a potential Avengers role, with many believing it hints at his arrival in Phase 6.
2. Deadpool & Wolverine’s MCU Setup
The recent film didn’t just bring Wolverine into the MCU; it tied directly into Marvel’s multiverse with TVA connections, time jumps, and Deadpool openly defying MCU “rules.”
3. Avengers: Doomsday Set Leaks
On-set photos suggest TVA agents will play a role in Doomsday. Considering Deadpool’s new TVA ties, his appearance now feels like more than just fan wishful thinking.
4. Marvel’s Post-Endgame Problem
With the Fantastic Four underperforming at the box office, Marvel boss Kevin Feige may lean on high-energy characters like Deadpool to reinvigorate the franchise.
5. Industry Chatter on Multiverse Madness
Reports suggest Doomsday and Secret Wars will unite characters from Fox, Sony, and early MCU projects — making Deadpool’s fourth-wall-breaking humor a perfect wild card addition.
While no official confirmation exists, Ryan Reynolds has hinted at further Marvel projects, including an Uncanny X-Force adaptation. Even if Deadpool 4 isn’t on the immediate slate, an Avengers crossover could keep Wade Wilson’s chaos alive on the big screen.
