Is marvel making wolverine gay
This couple had a much bigger role in "Deadpool 2" and became the first explicitly queer couple in a major superhero movie. Wade and Logan's first fight takes place in The Void, and the homoeroticism kicks into high gear.
The big bad this go around is Cassandra Nova played by non-binary actor Emma Corrin. The replicated choreography is spot-on, and when he's not dancing, he's using the skeletal, adamantium remains of Logan as a weapon to massacre a squad of TVA agents in time with the music.
Marvel's decision to portray Wolverine as gay sparks widespread discussion and reactions online. There are a lot of penetration, crotch shots, and ass hits — choreographed like the superhero version of those pornos where people wrestle and the loser gets pegged.
But there is such an intimacy to their combat that "Ha Ha, Wolverine stabbed Deadpool in the junk" feels like a shallow interpretation of the fight scene. When the pair are stuck together in the Void on the way to see Cassandra Nova, Logan mentions Wade's boner being pressed against him.
Wade's emotional arc in this third installment is all about fighting to save the timeline where "his world" exists — which are his nine closest friends, Neg, Yukio, and Dopinder included. Deadpool and Wolverine may not kiss, but since Wade is our entry point into this world, we see Logan the way he sees Logan — which is to say in a manner that is equal parts heroic and objectifying.
Wolverine has also canonically had relationships with men in the comics he was with Hercules and was in a throuple with Jean Grey and Cyclops. No matter how much pain they inflict — they'll never be able to stop the other. Wade names edging as one of his favorite sexual activities, and that's precisely what a fight between Deadpool and Wolverine will always be.
A person crafting their own existence in a world that wants them dead is pretty damn trans-coded. Whether it's "getting pegged by Time Variance Authority agents he mistakes for sex workers" or "why the Honda Odyssey sucks," Deadpool is going to discuss both with the same passion and penchant for profanity.
The Internet’s Freaking Out : Deadpool & Wolverine teased a lot more queerness in the marketing, but the final film is far less queer than you might expect, even for Marvel
Blue Sky" and a millennial pop anthem from a boy band that still makes straight cis men insecure in their masculinity scream "no homo. And I've heard the complaints — that it feels like Deadpool's overtly sexual comments or acknowledgment of slanging hog for all genders regardless of physical anatomy is nothing more than " Haha, isn't it sooo funny that this masculine superhero is GAY?!
"Deadpool & Wolverine" is gay not because Marvel and Disney decided to let a straight director give some weepy monologue about having a dead husband that can easily be edited out for overseas. Alas, while it may be an R-rated movie, it's still a Disney movie, so we're not going to see anything overt the way "Deadpool" did in under the 20th Century Fox banner and it's foolish to think we ever will.
But that doesn't negate Deadpool's clear desire to bang Wolverine like a screen door on the farmhouse from "Twisters" playing one screen over, with the glory-hole-ious official popcorn bucket practically serving as Wade's request to give Logan's face a ride.
Wade and Logan do not lock lips or swap spit but they don't need to, because Deadpool is canonically pansexual and his desire to smash "anything with a pulse" isn't dictated by who is in his cinnamon ring at any given moment. The camera lingers on his body with the same overt attempts at titillation as a slow-motion pan-up on Margot Robbie in "Suicide Squad," and instead of relying on the subtlety of subtext, Wade has no problem directly telling the camera, "Get your special sock out, nerds.
There's always been a trans read to the Cassandra Nova character, because while it's easy to explain her away as "Charles Xavier's twin sister," she's actually the result of "chaotic cell matter" that survived after Charles tried to destroy her in the womb.
Karan Soni who plays Dopinder is also gay, although Dopinder's sexuality has not been confirmed. I'm sure the disconnect some viewers have is because Reynolds himself is straight, but "They call me the Merc with a Mouth, they don't call me 'Truthful Timmy, the Blowjob Queen of Saskatoon'" sounds like an exchange straight out of "RuPaul's Drag Race.
Deadpool discussing his sexual desires and exploits is treated with the same level of sarcasm and humor as anything else he brings up. We know he loved Gita, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's strictly straight.

She was conceived without a true body, forging a life through sheer force of will. It has been confirmed that, yes, that 'X-Men' scene with Wolverine was exactly what you thought it might have been. The promotional posters have been strictly focused on bromance — and again, you're telling on yourself if you think friendship bracelets or a BFF necklace are inherently gay.
It's gonna get good.
