Karan Soni, known for his role as Dopinder in the Deadpool franchise, recently teased his return in “Deadpool & Wolverine” while hinting at some unspoiled surprises awaiting fans. As the trilogy concludes with a crossover featuring Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Soni emphasized the film’s secrecy and its potential to poke fun at MCU tropes.
Speaking exclusively with Screen Rant at SXSW while promoting “A Nice Indian Boy,” Soni refrained from divulging specific details but hinted at the film’s tone and the surprises in store for audiences:
“Yeah, it was. That was the first time in the MCU, and you really do feel like Ryan is taking advantage of that. I feel like everything gets made kind of at its time. Originally, we were gonna make that one years ago, and it would have been good. But I think this feels right, because the MCU is in a transition phase itself. I feel like they’re ready to make fun of some of the stuff, and the audience kind of wants that.”
Soni hinted at Ryan Reynolds’ satirical take on various aspects of the MCU, indicating that the film will leverage the transition phase of the MCU to deliver a fresh and humorous perspective. He also teased the presence of surprises and urged fans to avoid spoilers, suggesting that the film will offer a unique and enjoyable experience.
While the first trailer for “Deadpool & Wolverine” hinted at the return of some familiar faces from the Fox X-Men universe, speculation abounds regarding potential appearances by iconic characters like Professor X and Magneto, portrayed by Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellan, respectively. The possibility of multiple Wolverine variants played by different actors and the inclusion of original Fantastic Four actors adds to the anticipation surrounding the film.
Moreover, Soni’s mention of the larger MCU hints at the potential for surprise cameos from prominent Marvel Studios stars, sparking speculation about appearances by original Avengers or other beloved characters.
As the release date of “Deadpool & Wolverine” draws closer, fans eagerly await the unveiling of these surprises and the culmination of the beloved trilogy’s journey into the MCU.
