Deadpool & Wolverine is officially coming to Disney+ after a record-breaking cinema run that saw it become the biggest R-rated movie of all time.
If the upcoming streaming release has you wanting to check the movie out (it's still out in some cinemas and also on digital platforms), you might be wondering whether you need to stay during and after the credits.
Or if you've already seen Deadpool & Wolverine, but had to skip out as soon as it ended, you might be wondering what you missed.
It's an MCU movie now, after all, and there's always something extra to enjoy. Both previous Deadpool movies had post-credit scenes too.
So we're here to help with the definitive Deadpool & Wolverine credit scene guide with all you need to know, including how many post-credit scenes there are and what happens in them.
How many credit scenes does Deadpool and Wolverine have?
We can confirm that Deadpool & Wolverine has only one post-credit scene which comes right at the end of the credits.
What to Read Next
There is also something running throughout the bulk of the credits which could be considered another end credit scene. However, it's not quite a scene, but is something else unexpected.
During the majority of the credits, we are treated to a montage of behind-the-scenes footage from various Fox Marvel movies, including the infamous X-Men Origins: Wolverine which first teamed up Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds.
It's all soundtracked to Green Day's 'Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)' and is well worth sticking around for, even if you don't care about the post-credit scene.
Whether it's meant as a heartfelt tribute or a final Deadpool-esque gag – the original song was written by Billie Joe Armstrong to showcase his anger at his ex-girlfriend moving to Ecuador – is unclear.
Following the movie's release, Reynolds posted a tribute to the Fox Marvel era on Instagram with a photo from 2015 of various Fox Marvel stars, so it seems it's a genuine tribute rather than a jibe.
"This isn't just Deadpool saying 'Oh, Hello' to the MCU. It's Deadpool – and Hugh, Shawn and me – saying farewell to a place and an era that literally made us. We are forever grateful to the fun, weird, uneven and risky world of 20th Century Fox," he wrote.
"It was our origin story and we wouldn't trade it for anything. And thank you to Kevin Feige and Disney for allowing us to share it."
Deadpool and Wolverine post-credit scene explained
Refreshingly, instead of setting up a future movie that might not happen, Deadpool & Wolverine's post-credit scene is a gag linked back to an earlier moment.
Deadpool is back in the TVA and uses their technology to replay the scene where he is being taken to Cassandra Nova, along with Wolverine and Johnny Storm (Chris Evans, reprising his Fantastic Four role).
When they meet Cassandra earlier in the movie, Deadpool unleashes an offensive, profanity-laden description of what he claims Johnny said about Cassandra, none of it flattering. Johnny protests that he didn't say a word of it, but Cassandra still flays him alive.
The post-credits scene sees Deadpool play an unseen moment of their journey to Cassandra, wanting to set the record clear and prove that he didn't get Johnny killed in brutal fashion.
It reveals that Johnny did in fact say all of those things including – but not limited to – saying that Cassandra can "lick my god damn cinnamon ring clean". "I won't be happy until I've urinated on her freshly-barbecued corpse," he adds.
And we've kept it relatively clean, there's much worse.
Once the clip is over, Deadpool turns to the camera and says: "Got you, f**kface."
Talking after the surprise screening at Comic-Con, Evans said that it was because of Reynolds that he decided to unexpectedly reprise the role.
"Ryan's a buddy," he recalled. "He just shot me a text saying, 'Listen, might be a long shot, but would you have any interest in reprising something from 20 years ago?' I said, 'Oh my God! Of course.'"
Evans has since shared a set photo together with Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and Shawn Levy, calling his surprise return as Johnny Storm "a dream come true".
"He'll always have a special place in my heart," he added.
Talking to EW, Levy revealed that they always knew what Deadpool & Wolverine's credit scene was going to be.
"Unlike a lot of movies, we knew what would be our final end-credits button for over a year. It was always going to be that, and it was non-negotiable," he explained.
"We expected that Chris might need a bunch of takes because that was a page of super dirty, mile-a-minute language. Chris came in, was off book, banged it out in two takes, had us pissing with laughter, and that's what you see in the movie."
And if you think Johnny Storm sounds a bit different in Deadpool & Wolverine, which especially comes out during the rant, it was a choice from Evans.
"This is a Boston-inflected, Chris Evans-inspired Johnny Storm," Levy noted. "I feel like it's more Chris than the original Chris Evans. Chris is a Boston boy."
