Ryan Reynolds’ mysterious Deadpool project has been revealed – and it’s definitely not the wholesome Christmas special some fans theorized.

Reynolds shared the clip on his personal Twitter account with the caption: “Good luck putting this one back in the vault.” In the 15-second clip, Deadpool sits on the couch next to his roommate Blind Al (Leslie Uggams) and has Deadpool and Wolverine’s infamous popcorn bucket (you remember, the one with Wolverine’s big gaping mouth) on his lap. As Blind Al reaches into the bucket, Deadpool looks into the camera and says, “Welcome to Disney Plus.” You can watch the short clip below.

“Deadpool and Wolverine” is now available to watch on Disney’s exclusive streaming platform, as is the documentary “Assembled: The Making of Deadpool and Wolverine.” The third installment of Deadpool first hit theaters on July 26 and grossed $1.338 billion on a budget of just $200 million.

The making-of documentary features interviews from Reynolds, director Shawn Levy, executive producer Wendy Jacobson, Matthew Macfayden, Emma Corrin and others. The crew shares their many scrapped ideas for the threequel, including one involving a feature-length deleted scenes “extravaganza” that showed that our beloved Merc with a Mouth was actually in the Marvel Cinematic Universe the whole time, but only had his scenes cut out became.
