Deadpool must team up with a reluctant Wolverine from another universe to save his home from destruction.

The story

Six years after retiring from his life as a masked mercenary, Wade Wilson works as a used-car salesman. His quiet life is interrupted when he is detained by the Time Variance Authority (TVA), an organization that monitors the multiverse. To save his deteriorating home universe, Wade must team up with a reluctant variant of Wolverine. The pair must navigate the complexities of the multiverse and the TVA's oversight to find a way to stabilize their reality, leading them into a desperate alliance to survive and save their respective worlds from destruction.

Full plot (contains spoilers)

After a failed attempt to save his girlfriend, Wade Wilson lives as a used-car salesman until the TVA captures him. They inform him that his universe is dying because its 'anchor being,' Logan, is gone. Wade travels the multiverse to find a replacement Wolverine, eventually finding a variant and taking him to the Void. There, they are captured by Cassandra Nova, the sister of Charles Xavier, who rules the wasteland. They join forces with a resistance group including Laura, Elektra, Blade, and Gambit to fight Cassandra's forces. After a series of battles involving various Deadpool variants and a desperate stand against Cassandra's ultimate plan to destroy all timelines with a 'Time Ripper,' Wade and Logan must decide who will sacrifice themselves to destroy the device. They manage to destroy the machine together, surviving the process and stopping the destruction of the multiverse. The film ends with Wade and Logan remaining in Wade's universe, where Logan encourages Wade to reconcile with his former lover.
