Cable – leading Deadpool to the X-Men

Here’s what he said: “We certainly are talking about the sequel – we were talking about the sequel while we were making the movie just because when you make a film like this that’s from a serialized source material, you hope that it’s the first of many.  But yeah [Fox is] feeling good about it, we’re all feeling really proud of it, so hopefully before it comes out we will be well into the process of figuring out a sequel.” (via Screen Rant)

Obviously, Cable has a pretty rich history – and he was actually supposed to make a brief appearance in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Thankfully, it didn’t happen that way, so Kinberg said that he will most likely introduce him in the sequel – obviously, if the Deadpool franchise proves bankable.

And, at this point, given the fact that time-traveling has already been introduced in the X-Men universe and given the fact that Apocalypse is known to make these kinds of jumps, can we expect for Cable to pop-up in X-Men: Apocalypse? We sure can – and even if it won’t be a cameo, we sure can expect for an Easter-Egg of some kind.

And thus Deadpool has one connection with the X-Men universe, even if Ryan Reynolds said that it would be difficult to introduce him into the larger universe.

On the next page, Apocalypse!
