Deadpool 2 Teaser: 16 Easter Eggs & Secrets You Probably Missed

14. Logan Playing Tonight

In homage to James Mangold and Hugh Jackman insisting that their version of Wolverine seen in Logan isn't set in the same universe as the mainline of X-Men movies, the Deadpool short is set outside a dilapidated cinema that appears to only be showing Logan.

The sign on the frontage confirms the screening, and there's also a frame in the back alley featuring the immediately iconic Logan poster that was based on the Schindler's List image.

That's another reference to the fact that Deadpool also occurs in a different universe to Logan, and further evidence of just how meta the films will continue to be.
