Hi, peanut. Welcome, take a seat. At CCXP MX in Mexico City, attendees were treated to a special preview of the upcomingDeadpool and Wolverinemovie set to hit theaters in July. The event showcased a large display featuring the iconic duo, providing fans with a glimpse into the world of the film. Collider’sSteve Weintraubcaptured the event through a series of photographs, offering fans a closer look at the display, which even includes — apprpriately enough, claw machines. Who knows what prizes may lie within?
While much of the storyline remains shrouded in mystery,the trailer we’ve seen has hinted at Deadpool’s mission to rescue Wolverine from the Void, a realm reminiscent of Loki’s encounters. Their leap through an mysterious portal into the multiverse adds an element of uncertainty to their destination. DespiteRyan ReynoldsandHugh Jackman’soff-screen camaraderie, which always captivates audiences, their on-screen dynamic promises to be even more intense.

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Is Not ‘Deadpool 3’
Speaking to Collider last month, directorShawn Levywas keen to stress that the film would be aDeadpoolmovie, but not a direct sequel as such to what came before.
“Well, the truth is, I think your answer is in the question, which is if you make the kinds of movies I make, you are listening to the audience. I’m not making small films for my own satisfaction in a room alone, I’m making it to connect to the biggest audience possible. We have had some early screenings that were extremely, extremely promising. I wouldn’t say that there were any big surprises, but you feel where the pace wants to tighten, you feel where you may afford to slow down and have a deeper, more durable character moment. And at the end of the day, as I think we’ve said, it’s very much a Deadpool movie, but this is not Deadpool 3. This is Deadpool & Wolverine, and it is singular because of that.”
Deadpool and Wolverineopens on July 26.Stay tuned to Collider for more.
