Logan, Thor: Ragnarok, X-Men, and more: 7 superhero movies to watch for Deadpool fans
1) Logan (2017)
Logan is considered to be one of the best movies in the Wolverine storyline. Set in a kind of post-apocalyptic future where almost all mutants are dead, the film focuses on a retired Logan. He is seen taking care of an elderly Charles Xavier, while his healing powers are also slowly seeming to fail him.

However, he is tasked with protecting a young girl named Laura, who is born with some of Logan's mutant DNA in her. It is now his task to ensure that she is safe from a group of evil people seeking to misuse her abilities.
The opening scene of Deadpool and Wolverine picks up where Logan ended, with Logan being impaled by a tree while trying to protect Laura. The 2024 movie opens with Pool desecrating Logan's grave.
The film is available for streaming on Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV.
2) X-Men: First Class (2011)
X-Men: First Class works as a prequel to the original X-Men movie, and explores the relationship between Charles Xavier and Eric Lensherr. While Xavier is a rich telepath who strongly advocates for mutant rights, Lensherr is a Holocaust survivor with magnetic abilities and a strong belief in mutant superiority. Although the two have opposing viewpoints, they have a common goal, fighting against mutant oppression.
The movie portrays the intricacies of their friendship, followed by their inevitable rise as Professor X and Magneto, respectively. The film has some funny cameos and one-liners that fans of Deadpool will enjoy. Another thing they would love is Wolverine's hilarious cameo in X-Men: First Class.
The film, which stars James McAvoy is available to be streamed on Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV.
3) X-Men (2000)
Marvel fans love X-Men for two main reasons, the first being that it set the ball rolling for the modern superhero genre and, secondly, because it introduced them to the world of Wolverine.
X-Men is set in a world where a new breed of people, mutants, discover their powers as teens. However, since they cannot control their powers just yet, normal humans are afraid of them. Shunned from society, these confused mutants seek refuge in Charles Xavier's institute, where he helps them understand how to channel and control their powers.
In X-Men, Xavier has to deal with two new mutants: a teenage runaway named Rogue and a roughhouse named Logan.
The film is available for streaming on multiple platforms, including Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Apple TV.
4) X-Men Origins: Wolverine
X-Men Origins: Wolverine explores the life of Logan before Rogue found him in the bar. Although it is the least loved movie in the Wolverine storyline, it explores his relationship with his brother Sabretooth and how his skeleton got the chrome dip.
Deadpool fans will love this movie because it gives them a glimpse of the red-masked character (before he donned the mask), Wade Wilson, who seems like a Merc in the making.
X-Men: Origins is available for streaming on Apple TV, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video.
5) John Wick (2014)
Straying away from a list of previous Deadpool and Wolverine movies, Keanu Reeves' John Wick follows the titular character, who is a retired hitman. However, he has to return to his job after a Russian mob steals his car and kills the puppy that he received as a gift from his late wife.
The movie is full of gripping action sequences, which is something that will keep Deadpool fans hooked.
The John Wick series has four movies, which can be steamed on Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Apple TV.
6) Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
Thor: Ragnarok is the third movie in the Thor trilogy and is arguably the best in the trilogy as well.
The movie explores how Thor (Chris Hemsworth), navigates his way through a foreign planet without his trusted Mjolnir. He then goes back home in Asgard to protect it from his evil sister, Hela, the Goddess of Death.
The storyline of the movie is presented in a beautifully hilarious manner, with special appearances by Thor's "friend from work," Hulk.
It can be streamed on Disney+, Apple TV, and Amazon Prime Video.
7) Last Action Hero (1993)
Going way back in time, Last Action Hero comes from John McTiernan, the director of iconic movies like Predator and Die Hard. Last Action Hero explores a young movie buff, who is transported into the world of action movies. He finds himself starring in an action film with Arnold Swaznegger, his favorite star.
Like Deadpool, this movie is full of genre-based humor and sarcastic one-liners, which can keep fans hooked to the movie till the very end.
These are some of the best movies to watch if you love Deadpool.
