10 Best Movie Plot Twists Of 2024

10. Chris Evans Is The Human Torch (NOT Captain America) - Deadpool & Wolverine

We all knew that Deadpool and Wolverine was going to have a bevy of cameos, but did anyone expect things to go quite like this?

Chris Evans shows up fairly early on in the movie, appearing as an unnamed character in The Void who crosses paths with Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman).

Though we're initially led to assume he's a variant of Captain America, it's in fact revealed moments later that he's a variant of Johnny Storm aka The Human Torch - the very same character Evans played in Fox's original Fantastic Four movies in the mid-2000s.

It's tremendous fun not only seeing Evans gamely return to the cocksure superhero he played years before he became an icon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but also hearing him do something Cap never would - be extremely foul-mouthed.

And if this all isn't wild enough, Johnny then meets a brutal fate when Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin) rips his skin from his body for allegedly insulting her. Nice.
