Eagle-eyed fans have been pausing the trailer to identify familiar faces from the X-Men franchise. One character that has caught their attention is Professor X, as they believe they have spotted a potential teaser for his return. This speculation is based on the presence of a wheelchair in two separate moments in the trailer.
The first instance occurs when Cassandra Nova, the evil twin sister of the X-Men leader, emerges from her hideout. In the background, a wheelchair can be seen, leading fans to believe that Professor X may be present but obscured from view by Nova walking ahead of him. The second appearance of the wheelchair is during a confrontation between Nova and Wolverine.
Some fans believe that the wheelchair sightings are deliberate hints towards Professor X’s return. They speculate that Nova may initially appear in a silhouette, causing the audience to think it is Professor X. However, when she steps into the light, it is revealed to be Cassandra Nova. Others think it could be a misdirection to mislead viewers into thinking Professor X will appear.
One theory suggests that Nova may have killed a variant of Charles Xavier and keeps his wheelchair as a trophy. This idea adds another layer of intrigue to the character’s motivations and sets up a potential twist in the movie.
The first Deadpool & Wolverine trailer also featured a shot of a bald head, leading to speculation about a possible cameo from Professor X. However, it was later revealed that the figure was Emma Corrin’s Cassandra Nova, a formidable villain with a personal grudge against her twin brother.
The cast of Deadpool & Wolverine includes Ryan Reynolds reprising his role as Wade Wilson/Deadpool and Hugh Jackman returning as James ‘Logan’ Howlett/Wolverine, wearing his iconic yellow and blue suit. Other familiar faces from the X-Men franchise, such as Colossus, Vanessa, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Yukio, will also make appearances.
Deadpool & Wolverine is set to release on July 26 as part of Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is the only MCU film scheduled for release this year and is expected to set up the storyline for Avengers: Secret Wars.
As fans eagerly await the movie’s release, the speculation surrounding Professor X’s involvement adds an extra layer of excitement and anticipation. Whether he will make a surprise appearance or if the wheelchair sightings are simply clever misdirection remains to be seen.
