While it mostly strayed away from the main MCU narrative, it stillmade referencesto the larger MCU, like the Battle of New York, the Avengers, the Sokovia Accords, etc. Thus, it has always made fans debate whether the show is properly MCU canon or not.

He jokingly also asked him to describe season 2 episode 5 of the show. When the Wolverine star enquired whether they were talking about only film canon, Reynolds simply replied“There’s no difference”as he sees no variation between it and other MCU projects.

However, it got leaked sometime before the release of the first trailer, so they had to request Disney to let them change the title toDeadpool & Wolverine.Reynolds said,

The movie was originally called Deadpool & Friend. On the eve of the Superbowl, it leaked cause of the sons of bi*ches on the internet. The title leaked…and they hated the title. We were not feeling so good about that anymore, and it went with the trailer that we were showing. It was kind of a perfect title for the first piece of materials we had out there.

So, Shawn Levy — director extraordinaire, friend to both of us, and dear friend, literally one of our best friends in the whole world — he and I had been sitting in the edit room for months at this point, and we called everybody at Disney and Marvel and said we have to change the title.

Deadpool & Wolverinehas been loved by MCU fans and earned a record-breaking number in its opening weekend. The title change paid off as it perfectly captures what the film is about and does not misdirect audiences.
