Deadpool & Wolverine: 23 Easter Eggs & References Explained
4. Ryan Reynolds' Filmography
Ryan Reynolds has never shied away from referring to his earlier filmography in his newer movies, especially 2011's superhero calamity Green Lantern, which was so deliciously lampooned in Deadpool 2.
But in this threequel, Reynolds goes back much further, as Deadpool Prime mockingly refers to his "Nicepool" variant as "Van Milder," nodding to the 2002 comedy Van Wilder which Reynolds starred in.
Not one to be outdone, though, Nicepool then announces that he too can break the fourth wall, at which point he turns to the camera, says "The Proposal" - as in, the 2009 rom-com starring Reynolds and Sandra Bullock - and... that's it.
