The newly released trailer for ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ has ignited a buzz among fans, particularly regarding the possibility of Professor X’s presence in the movie. Eagle-eyed viewers have detected the appearance of a wheelchair in a couple of scenes, which they speculate could belong to Xavier. This discovery has set off a chain of theories and discussions surrounding the character’s potential return.
One theory suggests that Professor X could be sitting in the wheelchair, potentially obscured by Cassandra Nova, the twin sister of Xavier who emerges from the body of Ant-Man. This could set up a surprise reveal during the movie’s theatrical release. Alternatively, some believe this wheelchair sighting is intended to mislead viewers, hinting at Professor X’s appearance but ultimately subverting their expectations.
Social media is rife with speculation, with fans proposing various scenarios. One Reddit user posits that Cassandra Nova might emerge in Professor X’s wheelchair, playing mind games with the audience, only to reveal her true identity later. Another theory suggests that Nova may have encountered a variant of Professor X and keeps his wheelchair as a trophy.
While the wheelchair’s significance remains uncertain, the trailer also showcases the return of familiar X-Men characters, such as Cassandra Nova, portrayed by Emma Corrin. The star-studded cast includes Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, Hugh Jackman reprising his role as Wolverine, and Stefan Kapičić, Morena Baccarin, Brianna Hildebrand, and Shioli Kutsuna in supporting roles. ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is scheduled to hit theaters on July 26, forming part of Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Intriguingly, it stands as the only MCU movie slated for release in 2024, potentially paving the way for the highly anticipated ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’.
