The newest Deadpool & Wolverine trailer is here in honor of Best Friends Day, and it comes with a few Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Easter eggs for those looking forward to its premiere next month.
It’s a one-minute-long trailer that mostly serves to weave the titular duo closer together, as most of the footage comes from moments and scenes we’ve already seen. However, there are a few blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments that tease some of what is likely to be many cameos in Deadpool & Wolverine. Specifically, we can see what seems to be Ladypool and... is that Vinnie Jones’ Juggernaut after all?
Ladypool is the easiest to spot, as a brief shot in the video shows a mysterious figure walking out of what seems to be a portal. Ladypool has been a rumored inclusion for some time, and with other characters like Dogpool already officially in the mix, Deadpool’s female doppelganger, a.k.a. Wanda Wilson, is all but confirmed. Some fans even think they know who will play the character, as many have guessed that Ryan Reynolds' real-life wife, Blake Lively, will be under the mask.

Jones’ Juggernaut, who previously appeared in X-Men: The Last Stand, has been rumored to appear in Deadpool & Wolverine for some time. However, in March, the actor said he chose not to be included in the upcoming MCU movie because that original suit took a “mental toll” on him.
"Funnily enough I just got asked to do Deadpool, the new one now, and I spoke to the director and I just said it's such a drama putting that suit on mentally and physically," Jones said at the time. "I mean it had its mental toll as well because you're in it and you can't do anything all day, you can only drink through a straw. So we couldn't strike the deal for Deadpool [& Wolverine]."
Jones' comments are interesting considering keen-eyed fans were able to spot an individual that looks like his character did in the 2006 X-Men film. The moment the character appears in the trailer is easy to miss, and if it’s not Jones, then it’s at least someone who looks quite a bit like him.

Deadpool & Wolverine is primed to be one of the MCU’s most cameo-filled movies in recent memory. In addition to potentially including Ladypool and Juggernaut, we know that we can expect to see faces like Rob McElhenney and Ollie Palmer, and we might even get to see James Marsden’s Cyclops, too.
