It\u2019s been almost four years since the last Deadpool<\/a> movie hit cinemas, but that hasn\u2019t stopped fans hoping that they\u2019ll see the merc\u2019 with a mouth pop up in other films starring Ryan Reynolds.<\/p>\n Many had hoped (incorrectly, as it turned out) that Wade Wilson could turn up in IP-friendly blockbuster Free Guy, and more recently Reynolds has had to deny that he\u2019ll reprise the role<\/a> for upcoming Marvel movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness<\/a>.<\/p>\n Little did we know that to actually find a Deadpool Easter Egg, we\u2019d need to watch a different Reynolds movie altogether \u2013 new Netflix sci-fi adventure The Adam Project<\/a>.<\/p> Directed by Free Guy\u2019s Levy and starring Reynolds as a time-traveller who teams up with his younger self, there doesn\u2019t appear to be much that would connect this family-friendly streaming movie with the foul-mouthed Deadpool \u2013 but watch closely, and there is one moment that links them together.<\/p>\n It occurs near the end of The Adam Project during the final battle, when Adam the younger (Walker Scobell) finally gets his hands on his older self\u2019s lightsaber-like battle staff. Using the staff to propel himself through the air before making a dramatic landing, Adam whispers in happiness: \u201cSuperhero landing!\u201d<\/p>\n Even if you don\u2019t know the name, you probably know the superhero landing by sight. It\u2019s that moment in a film where a hero crashes to the ground, landing on one knee with the other raised, often accompanied by a fist to the ground. You\u2019d see it in Iron Man, Spider-Man, Black Widow\u2026technically, it even shows up in Milton\u2019s Paradise Lost, making the superhero landing over 350 years old (Google it).<\/p>\n
