Deadpool 3 Post-Credit Scene Breakdown: Wolverine, Multiverse & Secret Clues
Introduction
Deadpool 3 has finally hit theaters—and true to Marvel tradition, it ends with not one but two post-credit scenes that left fans gasping, laughing, and scrambling to decode every frame.
But what really happened in those final moments? Why was Wolverine so cryptic? And how does it all connect to the future of the MCU multiverse?
Let’s dive deep into the Deadpool 3 post-credit scenes, uncover the hidden clues, and break down what they mean for Deadpool, Wolverine, and Marvel’s next phase.
Post-Credit Scene #1: “The TVA Recruitment”
Deadpool wakes up in a time-displaced TVA (Time Variance Authority) chamber, confused and still holding a blood-soaked chimichanga.
Key Dialogue:
“We’ve been watching you, Wade. The multiverse needs an agent of chaos.”
Yes, that’s Mobius (Owen Wilson) speaking. And yes, this confirms Deadpool is being recruited into MCU canon via the TVA, officially bridging Fox’s X-Men universe and the Marvel timeline.
What It Means:
- Deadpool is now multiverse-aware
- He’ll likely appear in Avengers: Secret Wars (2027)
- Hints that TVA will manage character crossovers from Fox, Sony, and older timelines
Post-Credit Scene #2: “Wolverine’s Warning”
After the TVA moment, we cut to a lone mountain ridge. A younger Wolverine (Hugh Jackman, looking 1990s comic accurate) is standing beside a grave marked “James Howlett – Earth-838”.
He mutters:
“Not every version of me gets to stay dead. Some of us fight back.”
Hidden Symbol:
- The grave marker is shaped like an X—a reference to X-Men ’97
- He wears a new orange-and-blue uniform: a nod to the animated series costume
Easter Eggs in Both Scenes
1. Grave Marker “Earth-838”
- Previously confirmed as the Illuminati universe in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
- Suggests that universe’s Wolverine may be reborn
2. Broken TVA Pruner
- Seen in Wade’s hand at the end of scene 1
- Could imply he took it with him—he now has the power to jump timelines
3. Portal Glitch Sound
- Matches the sound from Spider-Man: No Way Home
- Reinforces that the Deadpool 3 post-credit scenes are connected to Secret Wars
What It Means for the Multiverse Saga
These scenes aren’t just gags—they’re canon-setters.
| Clue | Meaning |
|---|---|
| TVA presence | Deadpool now part of Loki, Kang arcs |
| Wolverine resurrection | X-Men reboot now imminent |
| Multiversal travel devices | Deadpool may appear in multiple timelines |

Will We See Deadpool & Wolverine Again?
Yes—and not just in Deadpool 4.
Confirmed Future Appearances:
- Avengers: Secret Wars (2027)

Jackman has hinted this is not his final appearance as Wolverine:
“In the multiverse, there’s always another story.”
