Deadpool 2: 12 Rumours That Were Utter Bull

4. Adult Hope Summers Is In It

The Rumour: With the trailers making it abundantly clear that Cable's daughter Hope Summers exists in this version of his backstory - indicated by the teddy bear he was shown carrying - some fans became convinced that this would lead to an adult Hope (somehow) travelling through time and joining the X-Force by the end of the movie.

The Truth: No dice. Cable does manage to save his daughter's life at the end of the film, so it's quite possible she'll join the team in the next movie. Again, though, this is already a pretty crowded movie, so why throw even more complexity into the mix when it can be saved for a less-rushed unveiling in the third film?

It would be extremely neat to see Cable fighting alongside his grown daughter, so fingers crossed for next time.
