Behind the scenes, speculations and rumors are buzzing, and one name that’s making waves in the rumor mill is KC Walsh, known as @TheComixKid on social media. According to Walsh, Deadpool 3 is not just about the irreverent humor and action sequences; it’s about averting an imminent multiversal catastrophe that threatens to unravel the very foundations of reality within the MCU.

Intriguingly, the Time Variance Authority (TVA) is set to play a pivotal role in this high-stakes mission. The TVA, known for its control over time and multiverse-related matters, steps into the spotlight, recruiting heroes from dying worlds across the multiverse. Their mission? To prevent the Multiverse from spiraling into chaos and collapse.

‘DEADPOOL 3’ will reportedly lead directly into ‘AVENGERS: SECRET WARS’.
