WATCH RYAN REYNOLDS AND HUGH JACKMAN RECAP THE DEADPOOL MOVIES — AND THEIR “X-MEN ORIGINS”

The actors channel their unique brand of humor for an uproariously funny recap.

If you need a quick refresher on everything that happened in the Deadpool movies ahead of this month's Deadpool & Wolverine, you should get it from the horse's mouth.

Marvel's Merc with a Mouth and adamantium-fueled mutant are officially joining the Disney-owned Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman leading the charge as their fan-favorite X-Men characters. And even though the game is changing with a lot of multiverse-hopping shenanigans, there's a lot of history embedded throughout the movie.

Who better to recap that history than Reynolds and Jackman?!

The stars team up for Entertainment Weekly's cover shoot to recap Deadpool's history on the big screen, starting with X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), leading through to Deadpool (2016), and ending with Deadpool 2 (2018). But it's all done with their signature, irreverent flavor.

Deadpool & Wolverine picks up a few years after the events of Deadpool 2 when Wade Wilson (Reynolds) hangs up his red, latex suit and works as a used car salesman. On his birthday, he's placed on a new path: agents from the Time Variance Authority (the folks from Disney+ series Loki) arrive and take him out of his reality. Wade meets Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen), who gives him a greater purpose — one that leads him to partnering up with an alternate reality version of Wolverine (Jackman).

Emma Corrin also arrives as Cassandra Nova, an extremely powerful telekinetic and telepath from the comics. There's also a whole host of cameos sprinkled throughout the movie, including Sabretooth (a villain from 2000's X-Men) and Pyro (Aaron Stanford's fire-wielding role from 2003's X2: X-Men United and 2006's X-Men: The Last Stand).
