The third installment of the Deadpool films, Deadpool & Wolverine, marks the first Marvel Studios movie to have characters from the X-Men franchise as the leads. The characters were originally owned by 20th Century Fox, but have been acquired by Disney since 2019. With much hype surrounding this film, the Deadpool & Wolverine post-credit scene has been speculated to tease the X-Men’s official arrival in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
The Marvel formula for post-credits scenes can be categorized as a tease for an upcoming project, or a silly gag to reward those who sat through the entire film. With only one post-credit scene, continue reading below to see what type the Deadpool & Wolverine post-credits scene falls under.
Warning: Spoilers ahead for Deadpool & Wolverine.
Does ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Have a Mid-Credits Scene?
Deadpool & Wolverine does something completely new for Marvel Studios films and features behind-the-scenes footage while the credits are rolling. The audience is treated to a wonderful montage of various Marvel movies from the 20th Century Fox/Marvel era.
The video includes an interview with Ryan Reynolds for X-Men Origins: Wolverine while highlighting Hugh Jackman throughout various X-Men films. It also showcases movies such as Fantastic Four, Elektra, and more. It is an amazing and thoughtful way to celebrate those projects as Marvel Studios closes the book on that chapter while ushering in a new one.
‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Has a Fantastic Post-Credits Scene
During the film, Deadpool (Reynolds) and Wolverine (Jackman) encounter a character played by Chris Evans. Deadpool, being a big fan of Captain America, is happy to see him. But Evans’ character says “Flame on”, revealing himself to be Johnny Storm from Fantastic Four. When the trio are captured by the movie’s antagonist, Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin), Deadpool claims that Johnny made many negative comments about her, despite it not being shown in the film. But Deadpool is convincing enough, leading Cassandra to kill Johnny in anger.
In the Deadpool & Wolverine post-credits scene, Deadpool tells the audience that he wants to set the record straight about what Johnny said. He plays surveillance footage from the Time Variance Authority (TVA) that proves Johnny said all those bad things about Cassandra. It’s especially funny knowing that Evans’ Steve Rogers/Captain America would never dream of uttering such a spicy collection of words, whereas Johnny Storm didn’t have to think twice.
The Deadpool & Wolverine post-credits scene didn’t have any domino effect on future MCU projects, but it is a funny moment that many people might enjoy if they stick around until the very end. More of Evans as Johnny Storm is a nice treat.
Deadpool & Wolverine is now showing in theaters.

Latest Matt Rhule news should end Penn State rumors
The Penn State Nittany Lions can likely scratch another candidate off their coaching wish list. On Thursday, ESPN "College GameDay" insider Pete Thamel reported Nebraska Cornhuskers head coach Matt Rhule has signed a two-year contract extension with the program, which will run through the 2032 season. It includes a $15M buyout this season, which should prevent another school from poaching him. Why Matt Rhule was considered a strong candidate to replace recently fired Penn State HC James Franklin After Penn State fired Franklin on Oct. 12, Rhule was immediately linked to the job. As a teenager, the New York native moved to State College, where he became a walk-on linebacker for the Nittany Lions from 1994-97. He clearly still loves his alma mater. "I love Penn State, met my wife there, my alma mater," Rhule told the media shortly after Franklin was fired. "Fan since I was born, I think probably had a Penn State shirt when I was born. I really love [athletic director] Pat Kraft, and I'm sad to see coach Franklin go." While the AD for the Temple Owls, Kraft gave Rhule his first head-coaching job in 2013. Now that he has signed the extension, he can't turn to his old friend again and must explore other options. Where does Penn State go from here? The list of candidates in Penn State's head-coaching search is shrinking. The Indiana Hoosiers signed HC Curt Cignetti, another potential target, to an eight-year, $11.6M contract on Oct. 16. The Nittany Lions could attempt to court Ole Miss Rebels HC Lane Kiffin, who has his team in the thick of the national championship hunt after a 7-1 start. However, if he does leave Oxford, expect him to stay in the SEC rather than flocking to the Big Ten. Some believe Kiffin may be the next HC of the LSU Tigers and Florida Gators. And for any optimistic Penn State fans thinking they can lure ESPN analyst Nick Saban out of retirement, dream on. The former Alabama Crimson Tide HC has said there's "no way" he's returning to coaching. Don't bank on Penn State (3-4) promoting interim HC Terry Smith, especially after losing to the Iowa Hawkeyes, 25-24, in his first game. Instead, it may target HCs Mike Elko (Texas A M Aggies), Clark Lea (Vanderbilt Commodores) and Jeff Brohm (Louisville Cardinals). Penn State alumni may have welcomed a homecoming for Rhule. Now, it no longer looks like a possibility.
Myles Garrett Trade Rumors Swirling With the Eagles in the Crosshairs
With the NFL Trade Deadline rapidly approaching, the Philadelphia Eagles have been actively looking to upgrade their roster. One of the main positions of focus has been improving the pass rush. The Eagles look prepared to take a big swing to address this, in the form of a Myles Garrett trade. Myles Garrett Trade Rumors Swirling With the Eagles in the Crosshairs Eagle Eye Myles Garrett has started to come up in trade rumors over the last few weeks. The Cleveland Browns’ loss against the New England Patriots was a perfect example of why. Garrett had an unbelievable game, recording five sacks. The Browns ultimately lost the game by 19 points. This was the first time in NFL history a player recorded five sacks while losing by more than three points. Garrett has clearly become increasingly frustrated with his team’s struggles despite his own individual performance. Garrett also seems distanced from the team amid his frustration. Amid this uncertainty, rumors have circulated about the Eagles’ willingness to make a trade for the future Hall of Famer. Yahoo Sports reporter Charles Robinson added fuel to the fire with recent comments. Robinson said, “Howie Roseman and the Eagles are super hot after Myles Garrett and would give up like three first-round picks for him.” This would be an unprecedented move from Howie Roseman and the Eagles. On one hand, they would be adding one of the best defensive players in football. Pairing him with Jalen Carter on the defensive line would be a nightmare for opposing offenses. This would be an all-in move for a team recognizing they are in a championship window, trying to maximize it. The Eagles would almost assuredly become the favorites to win the NFC, at the very least. Adding one of, if not the best, pass rushers in the NFL would leave them with almost no weaknesses and a great chance to repeat as champions. Paying a Hefty Price This acquisition would not be cheap for the Eagles. Although Garrett is an all-time great player, giving up three first-round picks would leave the Eagles without a first-round draft pick all the way until 2029. Given all of the massive contracts the Eagles already have (including Garrett in this scenario), it would make it an almost impossible financial situation to navigate. Roseman has shown an ability to navigate tough financial situations, though. He has also shown an ability to maximize his later-round draft picks. In just the last three drafts, the Eagles have drafted all of these players outside of the first round: Cooper DeJean, Jalyx Hunt, Andrew Mukuba, Tyler Steen, Tanner McKee, and Moro Ojomo, among others. It is unlikely the Browns will end up trading Myles Garrett. If they do, though, it is a no-brainer move for the Eagles, regardless of the hefty price they would have to pay. Other Eagles Trade Speculation The Eagles already made a trade this week to reinforce their secondary. Trading with the New York Jets, they acquired cornerback Michael Carter in return for wide receiver John Metchie and a late-round pick swap. Carter has been a solid slot cornerback for the Jets across his five seasons in the NFL. This move gives the Eagles more versatility defensively, allowing them to move DeJean to the outside cornerback position if they choose to. NFL Insider Jordan Schultz also fueled speculation with his latest report on the Philadelphia Eagles. He reported they “are in on everything”. This certainly lines up with Roseman’s aggressive nature and suggests the Eagles could have an unexpected move up their sleeve. Regardless of what that looks like, the clock is ticking ahead of the NFL’s November 4th trade deadline.
Nationals set to hire MLB's youngest manager in over 50 years
The Washington Nationals were one of a handful of teams heading into the offseason needing a new manager. The Nats fired former manager Dave Martinez, who helped lead them to their first World Series title in 2019, ahead of the All-Star break. They then had to decide if they wanted to keep interim manager Miguel Cairo or head in another direction. The Nationals decided to go in a different direction, announcing on Thursday that they are set to hire the youngest MLB manager in over 50 years. Nationals will hire Blake Butera to be their next manager After going 29-43 after taking over for Martinez, the Nationals decided that Cairo wasn't the man to lead them forward. Washington is hiring 33-year-old Blake Butera to be its next manager, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan. Butera will be a new voice to pair with the new president of baseball operations, Paul Toboni, who took over for former executive Mike Rizzo. According to Passan, Butera will be the youngest manager in more than 50 years. Butera joins Oliver Marmol (39) of the St. Louis Cardinals as the only managers in baseball under 40 years old. In his four-year career as a minor league manager in the Tampa Bay Rays organization, Butera accumulated a 258-144 record. That should bode well for him going to Washington, especially after six straight losing seasons. A former 35th-round draft pick of the Rays, Butera is also a former two-time minor league Manager of the Year in the Rays organization and was the bench coach for Team Italy in the 2023 World Baseball Classic. Nationals need to give Blake Butera everything he needs to be successful Being so young and "inexperienced," Toboni and the Nationals organization will need to surround Butera with a veteran coaching staff. In particular, an experienced bench coach to help guide him through being a big league manager. Someone like former Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington would be a good hire to help guide Butera, given his managerial experience and longtime coaching. Coming from the Rays organization, Butera can bring over things he's learned there to help the Nationals improve as an organization. The Rays are consistently at the forefront of analytics and new, innovative ways to build a successful baseball team. Having a young roster and only two players with a decade in the big leagues (Josh Bell and Trevor Williams), Butera should find it easy to connect with some of his younger players, given his age. However, veterans may find it hard to listen to someone as inexperienced as Butera, which he’ll need to work on if the Nationals add any more to help mentor their young core.
