Just last week, Disney joined the CinemaCon presentation in Las Vegas and unveiled an extensive nine-minute footage for Deadpool & Wolverine. But before the audience got their look at the clip, Wade Wilson and Logan talked about the rumors of the Secret Wars’ introduction, seemingly setting up the stage for Marvel Studios’ upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars movie, and revealed a “silence your phone” PSA to get the viewers’ attention. Now, it looks like that PSA will be repurposed, with the news that it’s intended to play in theaters this summer.
A source told The Hollywood Reporter that the Deadpool & Wolverine CinemaCon PSA was meant to be played in theaters ahead of the threequel's release. However, Marvel Studios and the film’s team have remained silent about the claim. Hence, it remains to be seen if this will happen.
In the spot, Deadpool tells Wolverine the rumors he heard about Secret Wars to be finally introduced. As he’s about to explain his theories about it, a phone ring interrupts him. This angers Wolverine, who pushes Deadpool aside and faces the camera to talk to the audience.
The adamantium-clawed hero then asks them to turn their phones off and drops a lot of f-bombs. He also stresses that cinemas aren’t their “grandma’s nursing home.” Fortunately, Deadpool manages to stop him by calming him down.
