History
Overview[]
This reality is a divergent timeline of Earth-10005, sharing its same history until 1973, at which point the Wolverine from that reality's 2023 travelled back in time in order to avert an apocalyptic future.[3] This reality is still labeled as "Earth-10005" by the Time Variance Authority.[1]
Despite the apparent divergent point, many historical elements of this reality diverge significantly from that of Earth-10005, regardless of whether or not they would have been impacted. For example, this reality's Wade Wilson was born decades later than his counterpart, and rather than being a mutant affiliated with the Weapon X program, he is a mutate roped into an unrelated experiment. Scott Summers, similarly, was born a few years after his counterpart, and is explicitly the brother of Alex Summers rather than implied as such.
Timeline[]
1970s[]
Driven by the belief that mutants would one day eradicate the human species, scientist Bolivar Trask commissioned the Sentinel program, a robotic police force designed to hunt down and kill mutants. Mutant shapeshifter Mystique moved to assassinate Trask before the program further developed, but a group of mutants from an apocalyptic future, the X-Men, had pinpointed this as the event that triggered mutant annihilation, and so they sent Wolverine back in time to 1973 to stop her.
Through Wolverine's actions in 1973, the X-Men were reformed, mutants' existence was made public knowledge by the mutant terrorist Magneto, and Wolverine's future was averted.[3] Mutants became a point of great contention and controversy, Charles Xavier, the X-Men's leader, reopened his school for mutants, and Mystique became celebrated as a hero among mutantkind, for her willingness to spare Trask's life after being talked down by the X-Men.[4]
1980s[]
In the wake of mutants' existence becoming public knowledge, much controversy arose among humans, with some forming cults and organizations in response. One such cult discovered the remains of En Sabah Nur, a powerful mutant entombed underground in a hibernation state since 3000 B.C. When he awakened in 1983, En Sabah Nur decided Earth had become weak during his slumber, and gathered together four powerful mutants to "cleanse" the planet and remake it in his image.
In his attacks, En Sabah Nur launched humanity's entire nuclear arsenal into space, left much of the planet in ruins, and killed an unknown number of people, all while combating the X-Men. In the end, he was destroyed by the mutant Jean Grey, using a manifestation of the cosmic Phoenix force, and his followers disbanded as the X-Men attempted to rebuild the world over the next nine years.[4] The X-Men grew to be figures of great fame and respect, particularly Professor Xavier, and were even endorsed by the president of the United States for important missions.[5]
1990s[]
In 1992, while on a rescue mission in space, the X-Men encountered the true Phoenix force, which bonded with Jean and began fighting her internally and ultimately corrupted her, breaking down her mental barriers that Professor Xavier had established with his telepathy to suppress traumatic memories from her childhood. She accidentally killed Mystique, causing the X-Men to fragment.
They eventually came back together, even recruiting Magneto to help them, when the alien D'bari race began invading Earth, with the intent to harness the Phoenix force's through Jean and use it to conquer the planet. As the X-Men pushed back against the D'bari, Jean destroyed the remaining D'bari and merged with the Phoenix force to become a powerful being of energy. Xavier retired from the school and the X-Men, and the team would continue to operate without Jean for many years.[5]
Sometime between 1992 and 2016,[6] Professor Xavier rejoined the X-Men, as did Jean, returning to her mutant form. The Wolverine of this timeline also joined the team and became a renowned hero, even becoming a history teacher at the school.[3]
2010s[]
Around 2016, Francis Freeman began developing experiments on how to activate through torture the dormant mutant gene within mutants whose powers did not manifest at puberty. He successfully activated several mutants for his criminal organization, and even activated his own mutant abilities. One of his test subjects became the violent and sadistic vigilante Deadpool, who took down Francis' organization with the help of the X-Men before becoming a mercenary-for-hire.[6]
In 2018, the original iteration of events saw Deadpool's fiancée Vanessa get killed, and sent him into a depressive spiral. After doing some soul-searching, he took Cable's time-traveling wristband, which he used to reverse time, allowing him to save Vanessa. He also used the wristband to travel throughout his timeline and alter several things he felt needed "cleaning up",[7] and even discovered how to use it to traverse the multiverse before he finally destroyed it.[1]
2020s[]
In 2023, the original timeline counterpart of Logan imported directly into his revised counterpart, permanently erased the revised counterpart's mind. Logan, whose mind to have retain his original timeline history and don't know what happened after 1973 and current present, woke up in Xavier Institute. He then see everyone alive due to his action that changing the future, and then he met the revised counterpart of Charles Xavier, where Xavier told him they have a lot to catch up on.[8]
One year later after the original timeline Logan woke up, Wade Wilson, now retired as Deadpool after he failed to join the Avengers from the Sacred Timeline, worked with Peter Wisdom as a car salesman. At the time when he hosted a party with his friends, the TVA apprehended Wade Wilson and he met Mr. Paradox, and Paradox told him that his universe is in the verge of decaying, due to Logan's sacrifice in the near future that caused the erosion of the universe. This led to the conflict between Deadpool and the TVA. Deadpool stole TemPad from Paradox and traveled to 2030s, where he digged up Logan's grave and shocked that Logan's corpse eroded to an adamantium-coated skeleton, which he used to beat up TVA's agent, before he searched and brought a disgraced, alcoholic Wolverine variant.
However, Paradox laughed at him and told him that the variant he brought is the worst Wolverine, and he pruned both Deadpool and Wolverine to the Void. During their travel to the Void, the two formed an initially very uneasy alliance to try and escape the Void, and later met the alternate Cassandra Nova from another timeline, to which they successfully escaped and later they joined the Resistance, where Wolverine met the teenaged Laura from the possible future timeline where Logan died. The Resistance then launched an assault at Cassandra Nova, to which Deadpool and Wolverine successful nullifying Nova's psychic ability using Juggernaut's helmet, and she would open a portal to Earth-10005, allowing the two travel back to the universe.
After returning to Earth-10005, Deadpool and Wolverine confronted Paradox, but Cassandra Nova interrupted them. She learned about the Time Ripper and planned to destroy all timelines, leaving only the Void. The Deadpool Corp from the Void attempted to intervene the two, but Peter Wisdom, now Peterpool, encouraged them to stop. They hailed him as a legend, which gave Deadpool and Wolverine the chance to destroy the Time Ripper and kill Cassandra Nova in an explosion. Eventually, Paradox was arrested by the TVA, and Deadpool asked B-15 to rescue the Resistance, including Laura. After their victory, Deadpool invited Wolverine and Laura to celebrate with his friends, helping them form a new family and a new life.[1]
Sometimes at late 2020s, the Essex Corporation had also begun experimenting on the mutant gene, through its appearance in adolescents. They had multiple laboratories and facilities around North America. One facility in particular was the Milbury Hospital, a secure mental institution run by Dr. Cecilia Reyes to evaluate potentially dangerous young mutants who could be killers for Essex. Five young mutants, all of whom believed they were being trained for the X-Men, were detained at the facility but grew increasingly hostile and skeptical due to the nature of the facility. Eventually, they rallied together to escape when one of them unintentionally summoned a Demon Bear, which killed Dr. Reyes. After the Demon Bear was defeated, the group learned Reyes' force field was gone, which allowed them to leave and head to the nearest town.[9]

- The film Logan was widely presumed to take place in this reality, but according to interviews with Logan star Hugh Jackman and director James Mangold, it was intended to take place in an alternate future set after Days of Future Past, and that reality was later designated Earth-17315.[10][11][12][13][14]
- Deadpool 2 primarily takes place on an aborted timeline designated Earth-41633, where Deadpool's girlfriend Vanessa was murdered, before he went back in time to this reality, and prevented it from happening.
- Despite the major changes in the timeline and history caused by X-Men: Days of Future Past, Deadpool & Wolverine continues to refer to the reality of X-Men films as Earth-10005, the designation which was assigned to the original X-Men by Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z #4. Whether this is the result of an error or an indication that the reality divergence in X-Men: Days of Future Past split the original timeline off into a separate reality, is presently unclear. Marvel Database will refer to this reality as "Earth-10005 Revised" until further clarification.
- In December 2017, The Walt Disney Company acquired a significant portion of 21st Century Fox, including its film division 20th Century Fox, for $66.1 billion.[15] Due to this, Disney, who also currently owns Marvel Studios, acquired the film rights for the X-Men and Deadpool, when the deal was completed in March 2019.[16] Disney CEO Bob Iger confirmed in December 2017, that the X-Men and Deadpool would be integrated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[17][18] This meant that any films that were either planned, or was in development, by Fox were initially put on hold, and eventually canceled by Disney with the exception of Deadpool 3.

- While working on the film X-Men: Apocalypse, editor and composer John Ottman was pitched by his assistant Byron Burton, with a first draft script he had written involving a spin-off film, focusing on the character Beast titled X-Men: Fear the Beast. Said film would've set up the character Mister Sinister as a villain across multiple films, including in a planned Omega Red film.[28]

Simon Kinberg: "The gateway was Days of Future Past because even though there isn’t high science fiction, like apocalypse or aliens, time travel is as big a science fiction trope. It sort of opened up what we could do because even though it wasn’t technically the multiverse thing that, ultimately, I think in some ways spawned it, it was outside the bounds of linear storytelling on Earth. It was other dimensions."
