Deadpool & Wolverine: Do Agent X & Kang Appear? Fake Cast Rumors Explained

As a long-time Marvel fan with a soft spot for Deadpool and Wolverine, I couldn’t help but get my hopes up when whispers of Kai Cenat (Agent X) and Keenan Clarke (Kang) joining the cast circulated. The anticipation was palpable, especially given the movie creators’ history of surprise cameos. However, much like a leaked Avengers initiative gone wrong, these rumors turned out to be as reliable as a Hydra double agent.


There have been whispers on the web suggesting that Kai Cenat might appear as Agent X, and Keenan Clarke could be cast as Kang in the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine movie. Yet, the filmmakers tried to keep these potential surprise appearances a secret until the film’s release. Unfortunately, some false reports misguided fans into thinking that these new Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) entrants were indeed real. However, once the movie hit the screens, it was evident that these rumors had no basis and were merely online speculations.

Below, we’ve outlined essential information regarding Agent X, speculations surrounding Kang, and whether the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has ever considered their appearances in the past.

Does Kai Cenat play Agent X in Deadpool & Wolverine?

No, Kai Cenat does not appear as Agent X in Deadpool & Wolverine.

Initially, there were whispers suggesting that well-known Twitch streamer Kai Cenat might make his Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) entrance in the Deadpool and Wolverine film, playing Agent X. Yet, these speculations proved to be unfounded since the multiverse storyline didn’t incorporate Agent X.

In the Marvel universe, Agent X made his debut in the September 2002 edition of Gail Simone and UDON’s Agent X #1 comic book. This character possesses extraordinary physical strength, rapid healing capabilities, and telepathic powers. Notably, he was enlisted by Black Swan, a powerful telepathic German assassin, in a mission to exact revenge on Deadpool, whom he suspected of causing the death of his brother.

In upcoming movies, both Deadpool and Wolverine might delve into separate antagonists, but the tales of Agent X and Black Swan are still intriguing possibilities. Introducing them in the stories of these two heroes could potentially confuse fans since they haven’t officially been presented within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as yet.

Does Keenan Clarke appear as Kang in Deadpool & Wolverine?

No, Keenan Clarke does not appear as the new Kang the Conqueror in Deadpool & Wolverine.

The initial whispers about Clarke being cast emerged following an article on Market Insider, which has since been removed. Originally, this information came from Z News Service, a PR agency, who claimed that Clarke would portray the new Kang the Conqueror. However, Dexerto later revealed that these casting rumors were actually part of a marketing tactic.
