DEADPOOL 2: Will Patrick Stewart's Professor X Meet Ryan Reynolds' Merc with a Mouth?
Time for some good old-fashioned speculation, folks.
Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman were answering some Logan fan questions on Twitter, and this happened:

Do you think the "announcement" Jackman thought Stewart was going to make is that Professor Xavier will appear in Deadpool 2? Again, this is pure speculation, but such a thing would certainly be possible. While Jackman is apparently hanging up his claws after Logan, Stewart himself has said he's not done playing Charles quite yet. Considering Xavier is in pretty bad shape during Logan, which takes place in 2029, that would mean he'd likely reprise the role in a movie set during before that point on the timeline. Deadpool 2 seems like a good opportunity for him to insert his dry wit opposite Ryan Reynolds' hyperactive one-liners, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him turn up there.
What do you think?
