【Student Wife (2016)】

The Student Wife (2016)newDeadpool 2 trailerhad plenty of good points including pot-shots at Justice League and Toy Storyreferences. But for Marvel comic fans, one moment in particular kind of stood out.

The shot comes in at the 1:39 mark, and shows Deadpool posing with a bunch of other super-folks in the bay of a helicopter/plane/something equally cool.

Firstly, fans were excited because they believe the man on the right to be played by actor Terry Crews, who was not previously listed as being part of the film.

Secondly (and more importantly) fans believe this motley crew could in fact be the X-Force.

In the comics X-Force is like a black-ops version of the X-Men, and significantly it was a team headed up by none other than Cable, the apparent villain of Deadpool 2. It was also frequently antagonised by Deadpool himself.

Of course filmmakers have been known to play with comic-canon to sell their viewers red herrings -- and Deadpool interacts with his fans more than any other superhero, so the potential inclusion of X-Force doesn't tell us much.

It's still pretty cool though.
