Vanessa finally becomes a mutant

If there’s a Marvel franchise that can get a little more creative with reality, it’s Deadpool. Contrary to the rigid rules of logic in Avengers: Endgame, Deadpool is built on a foundation of anarchy. The continuity is tenuous at best, especially in the sequel. Although Vanessa’s early death is the motivation for all of Wade’s actions, she unceremoniously shows up in a mid-credits sequence thanks to time travel. So it wouldn’t be a problem if her origins were changed to a mutant faith, especially considering she’s a shapeshifter.

A simple explanation for Morena Baccarin’s Vanessa might be that she is just one of the many forms of Copycat that Wade was unaware of. Or maybe he did, and the film will just fill in that information with no introduction. However, given that it’s Deadpool, it’s doubtful it’ll be that easy.

After confirming Hugh Jackman is returning as Wolverine, no one seems to have predicted what will happen in the new film. In an interview with ET Canada, Ryan Reynolds gave the clear impression that we’re going to see a whole new version of the character. “What we pitched [Jackman] “It was such a big departure from the character he knows and the character he left behind that it gives him something completely new to play and something he’s really looking forward to,” he explained. Vanessa could also be different, taking her closer to her comical origins and to the land of mutants.
