10 Ways The MCU Can Reboot Deadpool

10. The Snap

Many fans speculate that the gamma radiation unleashed from one or all of the Snaps is what will cause the activation of the x-gene. This is a solid theory that would smoothly fit mutants into the MCU without much of a fuss.

But what if the Snap was a little more afflicting for one mutant in particular? What if Wade Wilson cannot mentally cope with these extreme events?

If Wade Wilson was snapped out of existence, only to discover that the world moved on without him, it gives the MCU an opportunity to show the damaging psychological impact of the Snap through the eyes of an unstable mutant.

Spider-Man: FFH touched on it briefly, but the film focused too much on Tony Stark's death and left little room to really explore the ramifications of the Snap. Deadpool is the perfect character to fill in this gap because he will literally talk directly to the audience about it.
