In a recent teaser dropped by Ryan Reynolds, a sneak peek of the “Designed by Deadpool” popcorn container was unveiled, and it certainly lives up to the hype. While attempting to articulate the sheer magnificence of this masterpiece would be a futile endeavor, the accompanying launch trailer effortlessly does justice to its grandeur. Reflecting the essence of the upcoming film, the bucket pays homage to the iconic Wolverine visage, while also encapsulating the profound admiration that Deadpool harbors for his cherished X-Men comrade.
True to the irreverent spirit of Deadpool, the popcorn bucket tastefully flirts with the line of what is deemed suitable for all audiences. The visual spectacle culminates with a sensuous drizzle of butter cascading down Wolverine’s rugged facade, teasingly stopping short of the bucket’s awaiting maw. Embracing the jest, Jackman himself, reprising his role as Wolverine, indulged in the humor by sharing a version of the commercial on his social media platform with the cheeky caption, “Don’t try to butter me up.”
For eager fans awaiting the opportunity to lay hands on this cinematic culinary delight, details regarding the availability of the Wolverine popcorn bucket remain shrouded in mystery. Theatrical distribution and pricing information are yet to be unveiled. Drawing from past limited-edition releases, such as the Dune Part Two and The Garfield Movie buckets, priced at $24.99 and $17.99 respectively, enthusiasts can anticipate the Wolverine-themed bucket to fall within the range of $20 to $30. In the interim, enthusiasts can take solace in the knowledge that a popcorn receptacle inspired by the iconic Wolverine is poised to grace theaters in the near future.
