All the big Deadpool & Wolverine cameos

Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan

Previously seen in: Various films across the MCU

Head of Security for Stark Industries, Jon Favreau's Happy Hogan makes a return in Deadpool & Wolverine to interview Wade Wilson, who wants to join the Avengers and make something of his life. It does not go well for Wade, and the jokes about Happy's former role as a personal driver probably didn't help his case.

Chris Hemsworth as Thor

Previously seen in: Various films across the MCU

Chris Hemsworth's Asgardian God of Thunder makes a very brief appearance on a television screen inside Time Variance Authority headquarters. Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) shows Wade snapshots of what his life could look like if he left his reality and joined the Sacred Timeline. On one such screen, Wade sees a glimpse of a future in which he's dying in the arms of a crying Thor.

Henry Cavill as a Wolverine variant

Previously seen in: Online listicles

Henry Cavill is one of the many actors Marvel fans dream cast to play the role of Logan/Wolverine on screen after Jackman, and that dream becomes a reality for a brief moment in Deadpool & Wolverine. Wade steals TVA tech and travels to different realities in search of an alternate Wolverine. This leads him to meet different variations of the adamantium-clawed mutant, one of which is dubbed in the end credits as "Cavillrine," a.k.a. Cavill as Wolverine. There's even a gag alluding to how the actor has been working down the street at DC as Superman.

Hulk (but no Mark Ruffalo)

Previously seen in: Various MCU projects

Hulk technically makes an appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine, but we don't see his face and only hear his hulked-out screech as he pummels Deadpool. The merc travels to another reality to meet one of many Wolverine variants, and he finds one wearing the classic comic book-style brown-and-yellow suit. Wade mentions this is the garb Logan wore when he fought Hulk, who then appears to give a smackdown on Wade.

Chris Evans as Johnny Storm

Previously seen in: Fantastic Four (2005), Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)

Chris Evans certainly left a lasting legacy on the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain America, but through an ingenious turn, he instead pops up in Deadpool & Wolverine as his other famous Marvel role. Mr. Paradox sends both Wade and Logan to the "trash heap," a.k.a. the Void, the location introduced in Disney+ series Loki, and the place things go before they are deleted forever. That's where they meet Johnny Storm/Human Torch, the hero Evans played in 2005's Fantastic Four and 2007's Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, opposite Ioan Gruffudd as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Jessica Alba as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, and Michael Chiklis as Ben Grimm/the Thing.

Aaron Stanford as Pyro

Previously seen in: X2 (2003), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

Aaron Stanford first made his debut as the mutant with command over fire as a student at Professor Charles Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters in X2. Once close friends with Bobby Drake (Shawn Ashmore) and Rogue (Anna Paquin), he switched sides and joined Magneto (Ian McKellen) in the Brotherhood of Mutants. He pops up in Deadpool & Wolverine as one of the many mutants sent to the Void by the TVA and forced to serve Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin).

Tyler Mane as Sabretooth

Previously seen in: X-Men (2000)

Sabretooth, as played by Tyler Mane, is Wolverine's most famous foe from Marvel Comics. With animalistic abilities, including cat-like reflexes, retractable claws, fangs, and accelerated healing, he served as the chief muscleman for Magneto's Brotherhood of Mutants. Sabretooth was last seen getting blasted out of the top of the Statue of Liberty by Cyclops. In Deadpool & Wolverine, he serves Cassandra and faces off with Logan once again in the wasteland of the Void.

Various X-Men baddies

Many other mutants serve Cassandra in the Void but are not played by X-Men movie veterans. They really only exist either in the background or amidst a major fight sequence that plays out. Some of the key cameos include Toad (2000's X-Men), the teleporting Azazel (2011's X-Men: First Class), the near-indestructible Juggernaut (2006's X-Men: The Last Stand, 2018's Deadpool 2), Lady Deathstrike (2003's X2), Callisto (2006's X-Men: The Last Stand), Psylocke (2016's X-Men: Apocalypse), and Quill (X-Men: The Last Stand). There's also a non-X-Men background character: Bullseye from 2003's Daredevil.

Jennifer Garner as Elektra

Previously seen in: Daredevil (2003), Elektra (2005)

Aside from the X-Men and Fantastic Four, there are few other past Marvel characters lost to time. One of them is Jennifer Garner's Elektra era. The star of classic rom-coms like 13 Going on 30 and Ghosts of Girlfriends Past first arrived as the trained assassin with twin sai daggers in 2003's Daredevil, which starred Ben Affleck as the Devil of Hell's Kitchen. She then went on to headline her own Elektra movie that dealt with the character's history with the order of ninjas known as the Hand. The Hollywood Reporter first confirmed Garner's surprise Elektra return years later in Deadpool & Wolverine, and she does so as part of the Resistance, a small group in the Void fighting against Cassandra and looking for their way out. Garner recently appeared in The Adam Project (2022), which starred Reynolds and was directed by Levy.

Wesley Snipes as Blade

Previously seen in: Blade (1998), Blade II (2002), Blade: Trinity (2004)

Some motherf---ers are always trying to ice skate uphill. Not this motherf---er. Joining Garner's Elektra as another member of the Resistance is Wesley Snipes' Blade. The actor reprises the role for the first time in 20 years. It also makes for a fun connection to Reynolds, who costarred in Blade: Trinity, the third of Snipes' original Blade trilogy, as vampire hunter Hannibal King.

Channing Tatum as Gambit

Previously seen in: Channing Tatum's dreams

Once upon a time, in the ol' days when 20th Century Fox was a studio that owned the rights to the X-Men, Channing Tatum was set to star as Gambit in a standalone movie about the Cajun card slinger. Those plans were scrapped, and the project never came to fruition, but Deadpool & Wolverine offers a glimpse into what could've been. Tatum debuts in a comic book-accurate Gambit look as the third member of the Resistance in the Void.

Dafne Keen as X-23/Laura

Previously seen in: Logan (2017)

Dafne Keen filmed her role of Laura, a.k.a. X-23, for the movie Logan when she was 11. Now, she returns at 19 to play the character again. Laura is technically Wolverine's daughter with similar abilities and an adamantium skeleton since she was engineered with the mutant's DNA. We last saw Laura standing over the gravesite of Wolverine, who became a surrogate father to her. She's the fourth and last member of the Resistance in the Void.

Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15

Previously seen in: Loki (2021-2023)

When the TVA is involved, Hunter B-15 isn't far behind. Wunmi Mosaku makes her return in Deadpool & Wolverine to show the titular heroes "something huge." (Sexual innuendo intended.)

Blake Lively as Lady Deadpool

The Deadpool Corps., a gang comprised entirely of alternate reality variants of Deadpool, arrive in Deadpool & Wolverine. Among them is Lady Deadpool. Speculation around this casting ran rampant online, with some convinced it would be Taylor Swift. Nope. It's actually one of Swift's besties. While the character never takes off her mask, the end credits confirm she's voiced by Blake Lively, Reynolds' wife.

Matthew McConaughey as Cowboy Deadpool

Matthew McConaughey has entered the MCU, and that is alright, alright, alright. The native Texan, who literally graced the cover of Southern Living to confirm just how much he loves his home state, voices the character of Cowboy Deadpool, a.k.a. the Deadpool Kid, another Deadpool variant in the Deadpool Corps.

Nathan Fillion as Headpool

Perhaps the strangest member of the Deadpool Corps. is Headpool, a.k.a. the Merc with Half a Mouth. He hails from the Marvel zombies realm of the multiverse and appears in Deadpool & Wolverine as a floating CGI undead head voiced by Nathan Fillion.

Reynolds and Lively's daughter Inez as Kidpool

We already got Kid Loki in the MCU, played by Jack Veal. Now it's time for Kidpool. In the comics, Kidpool is self-explanatory: he's a kid version of Deadpool. In Deadpool & Wolverine, the character is another member of the Deadpool Corps. and is voiced by Inez, Reynolds and Lively's 7-year-old daughter.

Paul Mullin as Welshpool

Paul Mullin, the soccer player who's a part of the Wrexham A.F.C. football team that Reynolds and actor Rob McElhenney own, is the secret actor hidden underneath the suit of Welshpool, another member of the Deadpool Corps. Reynolds revealed the casting on Instagram, writing, "You may have noticed one member of the Deadpool Corps was far deadlier than the rest."

Reynolds and Lively's son Olin as Babypool

The youngest child of Reynolds and Lively, 1-year-old Olin, can also be heard alongside his mom among the Deadpool Corps. Olin voices Babypool, the infant Deadpool among the squadron of variants. Regal Cinemas even made a specialty popcorn bucket out of the character.

Tom Holland's brother Harry Holland

"When [director Shawn Levy] and [Reynolds] set the bar so f'ing high, even the stunt team needed a special guest star!!" stunt coordinator and assistant director George Cottle revealed on Instagram. His surprise guest is Harry Holland, the brother of Spider-Man actor Tom Holland. Harry plays one of the many Deadpool variants among the Deadpool Corps. "It may not be the Holland the world wanted, but it was the Holland we all needed!!" Cottle added.

Reynolds and Lively's daughter James

Deadpool & Wolverine is truly a family affair. James, 9, the eldest daughter of Reynolds and Lively, is credited in the film as "Screaming Mutant," joining her other siblings in the cast. Betty, 4, doesn't have a character, per se, but she is credited as Jackman's wrangler in the end credits.

Rob McElhenney as unnamed TVA Soldier

Reynolds' business partner Rob McElhenney is credited in the film as an unnamed TVA soldier. Together these guys own Wrexham A.F.C., the Welsh football club, which the stars' FX docuseries Welcome to Wrexham chronicles. McElhenney, known for his roles on Mythic Quest and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, posted a behind-the-scenes photo of his role on Instagram. Though he claimed to have been cut out of the film, he's listed in the credits.
