Deadpool & Wolverine post-credits scene explained

With Deadpool & Wolverine in cinemas, you’ll want to know if you should stick around for some post-credits scenes – the answer is yes, and here’s what happens.

It would be on par with every other Marvel movie to include a couple of teases and bonus scenes after the credits roll. But, Deadpool & Wolverine is already doing things differently, being the first R-rated MCU movie of the bunch.

Once you’ve sat through every cameo, you may be wondering if there’s more to come once the upcoming Marvel movie wraps up.

Here’s what you need to know about the post-credits scenes in the new movie – brace yourself for spoilers!

Deadpool & Wolverine only has one post-credits scene

Deadpool & Wolverine’s post-credits scene comes right at the end, with Wade clearing his name; specifically, proving what Johnny Storm said about Nova.

Early in the movie, the titular duo arrive in the Void and meet Johnny Storm (played by Chris Evans, of course). They have a brief scrap with Pyro and Cassandra Nova’s goons, before they’re knocked out and taken to her base.

During their journey, Johnny warns them about Nova. When they arrive, Deadpool tells Nova that Johnny was talking about her behind her back, rattling off all sorts of ridiculous insults he seemingly made.

Johnny denies everything, but Nova punishes him anyway… and rips off his skin and flesh.

Clearly guilt-ridden, Deadpool tries to make amends in the post-credits scene… by revealing that Johnny actually said all those things. That’s all that happens, so don’t expect any big tease for Avengers: Secret Wars or anything else in Phase 6.

Both Deadpool and Deadpool 2 ended with extra scenes during and after the credits.

The first movie had Deadpool come out in a bathrobe, telling the audience to go home à la Ferris Bueller.

In the sequel, there’s a montage showing Deadpool traveling through the timeline to “fix” some errors, including Vanessa’s death. Plus, there’s the Green Lantern jab, wherein he shoots “Ryan Reynolds” before he can read the ill-fated script.

Is there a mid-credits scene?

A montage celebrating Fox’s X-Men and Marvel movies plays through the Deadpool & Wolverine credits, scored to Green Day’s ‘Good Riddance (Time of Your Life).’

There’s no mid-credits scene, but that doesn’t mean you should rush out of the theater after the movie ends.
