Does Deadpool & Wolverine have a post-credit scene?

Did previous Deadpool films have post-credit scenes?

Despite not being part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe before the third Deadpool film, the two prior entries did also have mid-and-post-credit scenes for fans to enjoy. Deadpool & Wolverine is the character’s first foray into the MCU after Disney’s acquisition of 21st Century Fox in 2019.

The first film in 2016 - Deadpool - had two after credit scenes, both featuring Deadpool in a bathrobe. And in the maximalist nature that befits the character, Deadpool 2 had five post-credit scenes when it released theatrically in 2018 - which increased to seven with the Super Duper Cut home release.

When did Marvel films start having post-credit scenes?

The tradition of post-credit scenes dates all the way back to the film that came to launch the Marvel Cinematic Universe - Iron Man. Hitting cinemas in 2008, fans had not yet been trained to wait all the way through the credits so many likely missed this scene at first.

It saw Samuel L. Jackson making his debut as Nick Fury and visiting Tony Stark to talk about the Avengers initiative. The scene set the template for all future Marvel films - and is one of the most important so far.

How many Marvel films have post-credit scenes?

Have any Marvel films not had post-credit scenes?

While the vast majority of MCU movies do have at least one more scene after the credits start to roll, there are in fact two films that do not have a stinger. The Incredible Hulk, which was the second film released by Marvel Studios after Iron Man, and Avengers: Endgame.
