Deadpool & Wolverine

After the mercenary Wade Wilson (Reynolds), better known as Deadpool, steals Cable’s timetravel device to stop his girlfriend, Vanessa (Baccarin), from being killed, he travels from this universe, Earth-10005, to Earth-616 on what is known as the “Sacred Timeline.” Hoping to join the Avengers in that universe, he is rejected by Happy Hogan (Favreau) and sent back to his own timeline. Six years later, Wade and Vanessa have gone their separate ways and Deadpool now works as a used car salesman. When the Timeline Variance Authority (TVA) abducts him during his birthday party and takes him to see Mr. Paradox(Macfadyen), a TVA agent, he reveals to Deadpool that his timeline is crumbling after the death of Wolverine (Jackman) in “Logan.” Deadpool uses the agent’s TemPad to hop from universe to universe, searching for a variant Wolverine to stabilize his timeline and save his world.

Twisters

Kate Carter (Edgar-Jones) is a storm chaser working out of Oklahoma with her friends Javi (Ramos), Addy (Shipka), Praveen (Dodani) and her boyfriend, Jeb (McCormack). Using a Dorothy V Doppler, the team utilizes the device to launch sodium polyacrylate beads into a tornado in hopes of reducing its intensity and secure funding for further research. After a tornado kills her team, with Kate and Javi being the only survivors, she quits storm chasing altogether and abandons the

Dorothy V project. Five years later, Javi convinces Kate to take a contract with a mobile tornado radar company he is working for. Their paths cross with Tyler Owens (Powell), a popular YouTube storm chaser when the opposing teams chase a massive storm system across Oklahoma.
