the Deadpool Wolverine The new popcorn bucket has been unveiled.
On Thursday, star Ryan Reynolds revealed a suggestive ad (below) teasing a mysterious popcorn bucket for Marvel’s upcoming superhero team. The bucket is a wolverine helmet with a very wide open mouth. The move comes on the heels of Marvel boss Kevin Fiege’s promise of a “raw and unkempt” design for the bucket.
“Years from now, they will look back to 2024, when the popcorn bucket war began,” Reynolds wrote.
In the video, a gloved hand caresses the helmet, popcorn lands on her “face,” and then butter drips down her side (we’re sure no further explanation is needed).
On the side of the bucket, “Designed by Deadpool” is written in red.
Reynolds stirred the bucket for the first time minutes after Deadpool Wolverine The trailer dropped during the Super Bowl: “Wait until you see the Deadpool popcorn bucket.”
While Feige promoted the popcorn bucket at CinemaCon in April.
“We asked Deadpool to design a popcorn bucket for him Deadpool Wolverine“And I don’t want to spoil it, but I will say, there are some movies that unintentionally make crude, sloppy popcorn buckets, and then there are popcorn buckets designed by Deadpool,” Feige told the audience of exhibitors.
There’s no word yet on which movie theater chains will carry the bucket or how much it will cost, but the new buckets were previously priced from $25 to $50.
