"Deadpool & Wolverine" has been highly anticipated as a cameo-filled spectacle featuring the return of several beloved mutants and characters within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Among these surprises, Marvel revealed the return of Dafne Keen’s X-23 from the 2017 film "Logan" in the final trailer.

Reasons Behind the Spoiler

Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige explained the rationale behind this decision. The studio chose to spoil the X-23 surprise one week before the film’s theatrical release for several reasons. Feige told Variety at the “Deadpool & Wolverine” premiere in New York City that Dafne Keen wanted to attend the premiere. However, her appearance at the event would have been a spoiler if the character's return had not been revealed prior.

Feige elaborated, "Dafne really wanted to go to the premiere, and we said, ‘Well, she really can’t come to the premiere because it would be a spoiler.’ We hadn’t shown it yet." This prompted Disney to unveil the character in the trailer, as X-23’s appearance is pivotal to the "emotional core of the movie." Feige added that Disney marketing has a keen sense of "exactly when to push a little forward and pull a little back."

Marvel concluded that including X-23 in the final trailer was beneficial. Feige stated, “It was great in the final trailer” and “that meant Dafne could come to the premiere.”

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds' Vision

"Deadpool & Wolverine" also marks the return of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, a role he bid farewell to in "Logan." Ryan Reynolds, reprising his role as Deadpool for the third time, emphasized the film's intention to deliver joy and a complete experience. Reynolds shared, “The thing I’m most proud of is every frame of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is thoughtful in the sense that we spent so much time and so much detail, and paid so much attention to the detail in every single moment… and it just pays off.”

Jackman echoed these sentiments, saying, “I think both of us had such high expectations for the movie. So, yeah there’s risk because we wanted this to exceed those expectations, and both of these characters mean so much to us. Our friendship is one of the most important things in my life. So, we wanted to be as great as we could be, and thankfully for me, it’s exceeded every one.”

"Deadpool & Wolverine" debuts in theaters this Friday.
