Deadpool and Wolverine isn't afraid to lean into fan-service. In fact, a great many of the best Deadpool and Wolverine cameos are love letters to the days before the MCU ruled the world, harkening back to the first era of Marvel movies and the Fox glory days. While these appearances are ultimately intended to delight an audience that understands the history behind the various references, they also give the stars of forgotten or maligned movies a chance to take another bow, as was the case with one of the big cameos.
Although it was anticipated as the next step in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's evolution, Deadpool and Wolverine is really more of a loving tour through the uneven history of the Marvel movies that Fox Studios made before Disney acquired the company in 2019. One of those stops brings back an actress who appeared in two largely maligned '00s superhero flicks.
