A lot of fan art!

I am NOT knowledgeable enough to appreciate what this means ... and what the implications are. But the long discussions that follow the original tweet are diversified - pros and cons.

I guess I will just wait to appreciate whatever it is meant to be.

What is the TVA


From the past movie stories - some explanation.



www.elitedaily.com/entertainment/loki-tva-time-variance-authority-explainer

Each Disney+ Marvel series has launched a new facet of the Marvel Cinematic Universe that hasn’t come up in the films. WandaVision introduced S.W.O.R.D., the space-faring counterpart to S.H.I.E.L.D. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier had characters go to Madripoor, a wretched hive of scum and villainy. For Loki, the new bureaucracy is the Time Variance Authority, or the TVA. But what *is* the TVA on Loki, exactly, and how does the organization affect time?

Warning: Spoilers for Loki Season 1, Episode 1 follow. Like Madripoor and S.W.O.R.D., the TVA is a comics-based bureaucracy that was first introduced in the mid-1980s. Their concept is simple: The multiverse is vast and confusing, and the discovery/invention of time travel has made it so just about anyone with a genius brain and bad intentions can go mucking about with history, screwing everything up. To prevent that, three “Time Keepers” were appointed to monitor the flow of time. In the comics, this means watching over a vast multiverse of different outcomes. Here in the world of the show, it’s more focused on preserving what’s defined as the “Sacred Timeline,” catching anyone intent on wrecking the proper flow of time and removing them.

As the instantly iconic cartoon Miss Minutes explained in the TVA’s propaganda video, there was a vast multiversal war somewhere deep in the past in the world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Different multiverses entered into a battle for domination, necessitating having an objective board dictate which multiverse and order of events are the “correct” one.

But that’s all the show explains. What fans are probably wondering is where the TVA came from and who made it. And, as Loki asked: Is it really the most powerful force in the universe?

Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15 and Owen Wilson as Agent Mobius, two members of the Time Variance Author...
MARVEL STUDIOS
On a superficial level, the answer is yes. The TVA has a power that far exceeds most otherworldly beings. Captain Marvel may be the most powerful Avenger, zipping around the universe like she’s commuting through the neighborhood. But she’s as locked into her properly dictated path as everyone else. Tony Stark may have been able to make a suit, Black Panther may have his heart-shaped herbs, and Starlord may be the son of a Celestial, but they’re all just as unaware that a power greater than them is carving their steps millennia before they were born.

Someone like Loki is used to having the powers of a god, but at the TVA? He’s just another prisoner who’s had his party tricks turned off. Thanos’ Infinity Stones, which literally destroyed half the universe (and then brought it back)? Paperweights. That’s because nothing can overpower time itself. Time is the ultimate judge of reality: The when dictates the where, the what, the how, and the who. As for the why? Perhaps that answer is buried in the mounds of paperwork filed away in the TVA’s massive headquarters. Unless, of course, it was on the cart Casey had that Hunter B-15 accidentally pruned.

So, can the TVA be conquered? Clearly not by normal means, since most powers are rendered useless by the Timekeepers. But it seems there’s at least one variant out there who keeps slipping through the TVA’s fingers — and it appears to be a version of Loki himself. If one variant of Loki can stay one step ahead of time, what can a second variant, who’s currently working on the inside, do?

Will Wolverine get reborn the same way he was transported in Days of Future Past ( mirror scene) - LOL!

Nicholas Hoult (young Beast..who met Wolverine in Days of Future Past, IIRC) speaks about his excitement to see the next Deadpool movie which features the return of Wolverine --

Nicholas Hoult recently spoke to ComicBook during the premiere of Renfield, the latest film in which he starred alongside Nicolas Cage. Read his words below.

"I really liked the Deadpool movie, which started with me getting a slap [in Deadpool 2]. I feel lucky to be in that film. I'm excited to see what they've done with it, and as someone who grew up with Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, I'm glad to see him back."

Origin: Comic Book

I wonder how his Wolverine will look like when he meets Deadpool ?

They must be breaking their minds on how to give it a great title ( not simply as another episode from the antics of Deadpool) and how to give appropriate billing to Hugh Jackman! And his return as the beloved WOLVERINE!

Was watching one of the true murder shows on the ID channel and this lunatic dressed up like Deadpool (sword and all) and was pacing outside his ex-girlfriend’s dorm. At a later date he tricked her into going over to his house and of course ended up killing her. The police caught him and he’s in prison now. It was so sad because she had made literally hundreds of phone calls to the campus police and the local police office and they never even interviewed the guy! Tons of clear, in color, video evidence too!

Interesting that Lauren Shuler Donner has been added to the list of Producers. She produced the first XMen movie and was instrumental in getting Hugh considered to be Dougray Scott's replacement when the latter could not meet filming dates. Over the years, she produced all the major Wolverine movies, including LOGAN.

Also interesting - Kevin Feige was her assistant in the first XMen movie. I wonder if Kevin was instrumental in bringing her in to the upcoming movie production? Marvel Studio, which Kevin heads, is the producing company of this film project.

Good for Hugh and the Wolverine character!

I was trying to confirm further that LSDonner will be a producer for Deadpool/Wolverine.

Early last year ( 2022), she had a full and long interview with the MPTF (MotionPictures&Television Fund).


www.bing.com/videos/search?q=is+lauren+shuler+donner+still+an+active+film+producer%3f&docid=603505912285499917&mid=170E47A9C615CEE65D46170E47A9C615CEE65D46&view=detail&FORM=VIRE

Over an hour long - but it is a fascinating account of her becoming one of the best producers in Hollywood.

*She worked with so many people and she did mention Kevin Feige as one of her former assistants.

*At around 50 minutes, she talks about the first XMen movie
***She believes in the creative (storytelling) aspect first and foremost. Someone brought up the idea of making a film of the XMen comics. She was so taken by the depth of the characters, especially the character of Wolverine
***She met Bryan Singer and agreed on his becoming the director
***Their first casting decision was to bring in Patrick Stewart... then to bring in Ian McKellen...and that opened the interest of others to get involved in a comicbook movie.
***When DScott could not make it -- she suggested that Hugh Jackman be brought in. It seems that Bryan was not all that interested at first. He had reservations about Hugh Jackman coming from a musical background! But she prodded him ( they had a self-taped audition from Hugh) to let him do an audition/screentest with Anna Paquin. So Hugh came... did the reading...and as he had completed it, one of the people in the place ( not part of the crew, it seems he was a janitor) said "Hey, you've got your Wolverine!"
***Lauren was very impressed by Hugh's magnetism and appeal

*In the last leg of the interview (early 2022), she says that her husband's health ( Richard Donner, famous film director) was beginning to fail...and she was no longer involved in too many projects. Sort of semi-retired. A few projects, including 2 movies that she wants to do in musical format (DAVE & THE SECRET LIFE OF BEES), which she both produced as movies.

*After the interview, sometime later in 2022, Richard Donner passed away.

We don't know if she has decided to be more active after the passing of her husband...and actually be part of the new Deadpool-Wolverine movie. Btw, she was also instrumental in bringing the first Deadpool movie to the screen ( it did have a difficult road getting Fox approval because of his kind of character).

Hopefully, she will definitely be involved in the movie, given her role in the introduction of the Wolverine and Deadpool characters.

Over the years, Wolverine evolved physically...until he became more and more a Jackman clone!

[jo]

I am not sure what to make of this movie?

Is Ryan bringing back the old Deadpool cast and their roles?

Where or how does the story of Wolverine being the major part of the story come in?
