A source reached out to us this morning with word that there is a Deadpool 2 teaser trailer playing before Logan begins (though there's no indication as to whether it will be released online).

You might remember that back in December there was a rumor that Deadpool would have a cameo in Logan. Since then, the source of the story clarified that the footage shot for that supposed cameo would instead be used as a promo for Logan. But now we know that it's a promo for Deadpool 2, playing before Logan, and we've confirmed that with an entirely different source who is rather reliable in such matters.

As the earlier rumor said, the footage in question was shot by Deadpool 2 director David Leitch, so this will give us a good idea of what we can expect from his work on the movie. In fact, we have an extremely accurate idea of what to expect from the teaser, because we also have a breakdown of what happens in the teaser if you're desperate to know..

Deadpool 2 Teaser Trailer Description

The Deadpool 2 teaser isn't so much a trailer as a scene featuring the Merc with the Mouth. It begins with two men getting into a scuffle after an attempted mugging in an alley. Wade Wilson (Ryan Reyolds) walks by the scene, not suited up as Deadpool, just wearing a hoodie that hides all his scars, listening to the song ”Call Me Angel" from the opening credits of the first movie. When he notices the mugging, he's not having it, and says, ”Not in my city!"

Wade runs over to a phone booth to the familiar tones of the Superman theme composed by John Williams. However, the quick change that you're expecting doesn't go so smoothly. In fact, we hold on his struggle to change into his Deadpool suit for over a minute until the two men fighting in the alley ends with a gunshot.

Deadpool runs out in heroic slow-motion but finds that there's only a dead man on the ground that he can't save anymore. This is where details are a little foggy because one source mentioned that Wade starts running off at the mouth like you'd expect, all while going through the dead man's groceries before walking out of the alley. Meanwhile, our other source added the detail that Stan Lee provides a cameo as someone who sees Wade walking out of the alley with his face exposed and says, ”Hey, aren't you Ryan Gosling?"

UPDATE: We've added some skepticism about the Stan Lee cameo after hearing from a couple new sources, but everything else has been further confirmed to be accurate.

Since the source of the original Deadpool cameo rumor and subsequent correction regarding a Logan promo also mentioned Stan Lee's involvement before our second source brought him up, we were pretty confident the comic creator appears in this promo, even though his role wasn't mentioned by our first source and the order of later events isn't clear. But a couple other sources who work at movie theaters and had to test their projection copy of Logan say that Stan Lee doesn't make an appearance. So do with that information what you will.

No matter how that ending unfolds, the teaser ends with the text

”Deadpool...coming...not soon enough."

I'm literally sitting in the projection booth of where I work making the playlists for Logan, and unless it's such a secret they named the trailer Alien Covenant or War for the Planet of the Apes, I don't believe this or it's only certain theatres.

The article claims it's an actual part of the movie, not like a typical trailer before it plays. Would that make a difference?

Had it in my showing. Lost it when the Superman theme came up. Tons of easter eggs in it; Nate Summers coming soon on the phone booth for one.

Had it in my showing too. No Stan Lee cameo but it was great. The description is accurate up to where he runs to the dead guy. After that he sits down beside him talking his corpse and then it fades out as he grabs the dead guys ice cream.

Just checked my local cinemas (Village) in Australia and the session I'm seeing tonight is 2 hours and 17 mins. Does that mean I'm likely to see it?

Played in front of mine, in Canada.

It went like this: coming attractions (trailers), then the feature presentation clip, then into the Deadpool short, and then into Logan (including 20th Century Fox logos, etc.). So it's technically not part of the movie since it plays before the film.

But I imagine it'll show for everyone now.
