When this man turns around, it’s none other than Henry Cavill, the icon who played Superman for the DCEU. Cavill looks great with themutton chops and a cigar, but he wastes no time in reloading his arms andpunching Deadpoolback through the multiverse-hopping door he came from. Hopefully, this isn’t the last that audiences see of the Cavillrine.
39Blade
Played by: Wesley Snipes
There has, and still has, only ever been one Blade in the Marvel Universe. Blade pushed the boundaries for Marvel movies in 1998, so it’s only fitting thatWesley Snipes returns as the iconic Daywalker.Blade’s cameo inDeadpool & Wolverineis a great one, as it’s unexpected for a few reasons, especially with how fans have speculated for years that the relationship between Reynolds and Snipes soured withBlade Trinity. Regardless, it’s great to see this vampire killer in the sun again.
38Elektra
Played by: Jennifer Garner
Heading straight out of the early years of Marvel, Elektra slashes her way through 2005, only to return in the Void inDeadpool & Wolverine.

Even so,Elektra gets her moments to shine.
37Gambit
Played by: Channing Tatum
For almost 20 years, 20th Century Fox had attempted to get a Gambit movie off the ground, with the producer and star of the movie being the one and only Channing Tatum. The role seemed to mean a lot to Tatum, and inDeadpool & Wolverine, hefinally gets to don the iconic costume, staff, deck of cards, and, of course, the Cajun accent. Gambit’s role is a treat, as he fights for the forces of good whilst also proving what kind of hero he could have been if he was given a chance.
