Recently, a deleted scene from Deadpool and Wolverine has emerged, captivating fans and revealing more intricacies of the MCU in a brief span. Titled ‘Elevator Ride’, this clip occurs as Wade Wilson is being taken to the TVA by Paradox, moments after regaining consciousness, and prior to arriving at the main office.
The scene maintains the same self-referential style that audiences have come to expect, alluding to a blend of two significant yet controversial multiverse films within the MCU. Paradox starts the conversation with, “Mr. Wilson, this may come as a surprise to someone with your inflated ego, but your universe isn’t the sole one.”
In response, Wilson quips back, jesting about his awareness of “Doctor Ant and the Quantumverse of Madness.” This humorous remark playfully references Ant-Man 3 and Doctor Strange 2, both of which address the complexities and oddities of the multiverse.
The interactions in this scene aren’t the sole nods to these films; viewers can spot Ant-Man’s remains in the Void, part of Cassandra Nova’s hideout, while Sage’s Sling Rings are utilized by Deadpool later in the film. While he amusingly refers to the portals as ‘Marvel Sparkle Circles,’ the intention is crystal clear.
The humorous exchange wraps up with Paradox providing Wade with additional details about the multiverse and the Sacred Timeline, guiding him as they approach the TVA’s screens. The complete scene can be viewed below.
This deleted moment is just a glimpse of the extensive bonus material expected for fans upon the movie’s release on digital and physical formats. It will be available on digital platforms starting October 1, followed by a release in 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray, and DVD formats accessible on October 22.
