‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ Unveils Sexual, ‘Dune’-Inspired Popcorn Bucket
variety.comJordan Moreau Move over, “Dune,” there’s a new popcorn bucket in town. Ryan Reynolds has revealed the new popcorn bucket created for “Deadpool and Wolverine” on social media Thursday — and the video is just as inappropriate as you’d expect from the R-rated superhero.
Inspired by the viral “Dune 2” popcorn bucket, the “Deadpool 3” receptacle is modeled after Wolverine’s head, but it has a comically oversized mouth you can fill with popcorn (or your movie snack of choice).
Reynolds unveiled the bucket with a short video set to the epic song “Also Sprach Zarathustra” from “2001: A Space Odyssey.” In the video, Deadpool slowly caresses the Wolverine popcorn bucket as the camera zooms in on its plastic features.
