2. Will It Set Up Deadpool Joining The MCU?

Ever since it was announced that Disney was seeking to acquire 21st Century Fox, there have been rumblings online about what this could mean for Deadpool, and whether him joining the MCU is imminent. Will DP2 make any reference to this, and maybe even set up Pool joining the mammoth franchise?

Prediction: Disney's deal is still very much in flux, especially with Comcast aggressively attempting to derail it with their own all-cash offer at present.

However, it'd be pretty surprising if some sort of nod to the MCU hadn't been added in reshoots, even if it runs the risk of dating the movie immediately if Comcast ruins everyone's fun.

Never say never, but the most likely outcome is a vague wink at the prospect of Deadpool joining the MCU, perhaps even involving time travel.

Equally, the Merc with a Mouth could just keep his gob shut until the deal is actually hammered out for keeps.
