Deadpool and Wolverine introduces the concept of Anchor Beings, individuals of such vital importance that their deaths trigger the erasure of their universes. Erik Voss breaks down the suspects to deduce who, exactly, the anchor being of the 616 MCU must be.

    Itā€™d be funny if the anchor was Phil Coulson seeing how his death is the reason the Avengers came together.
  • @Shevy_Seby
    Itā€™s Stan Lee I said it šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
  • I suspect if tony stark was indeed the anchor being, then 616 also started to die. why would paradox pick deadpool to join the 616 universe which is going to have a similar fate as 10005.
  • @LeumasTheOnly
    I donā€™t think that the main MCU has an anchor being. The idea of an anchor being I feel ties to the ā€œsacred timeline.ā€ Because of this I feel that there is no need for one because of the fact that it is the main universe.
  • @jazzybtwixxy
    I think it would be cute if they said it was Stan Lee. Everyone thinks that itā€™s Tony Stark but Stan Lee passed around the time of endgame. It would be such a clever way to pay homage to him.
  • @Godwave_
    If itā€™s a hero it would probably make sense for it to be Thor. Heā€™s been around the longest, wasnā€™t blipped, is still active and has been through most all of the major events and seems to still have an important role to play. Itā€™s feels like this current MCU universe will end when this version of Thor is done. It seems like they may be setting up to reboot everything after secret wars.
  • @denM-ey3vb
    Wong is the anchor being. We donā€™t know how old Wong is. He has been the constant in all of the McU movies before and especially after Endgame.
  • @elrodillo07
    The anchor being is whoever they feel is gonna boost the popularity and money for the mcu
  • @justicejr1486
    9:00 bruh feige is telling us itā€™s strange, donā€™t look so into it šŸ˜…
  • @srempert11
    I donā€™t think itā€™s any coincidence Feige called Strange an anchor.
  • @Oil_lover6723
    The anchor being is one of the soldiers protecting Tony stark
  • @bluegamemc1403
    I'm honestly not sure anyone at marvel even knows šŸ˜­
  • @RidokouFC
    I thought it'd be pretty obvious that the anchor being is Captain America. I'm actually really shocked no one mentioned him.
  • @MeguVusion
    Maybe the Sacred Timeline doesnā€™t need an Anchor Being but it is the only timeline that can cause Incursions. Which would affect other universesā€™ Anchor Beings. If Feige said Strange was an anchor for the MCU, itā€™s probably Strange.
  • @alschaef13
    The anchor being is no doubt, Happy Hogan.
  • @papasmurf8275
    Anchor beings have to change often since none are immortal. Logan was only 200+ years old. This means that either that timeline branched off from the main timeline at his birth or there was another anchor being prior to his birth or him becoming the *Wolverine".
  • @Spyalwayswins
    I donā€™t think the MCU doesnā€™t have one as it is the main timeline and I donā€™t think it is supposed to die off
  • @kevinmelvin395
    What if the anchor being was an an MCU Apocalypse that was killed thousands of years ago, possibly through a future time travel story. It could also be the "reason" why the mutants haven't been in the MCU
  • @Saengard
    It's the one person who so far has created incursions where 2 realities merge. So far, that's only been seen with Dr Strange
  • @meowski617
    Maybe itā€™s Reed Richards. If one of the leaked plots of the latest Fantastic Four is them originally being from 616 but got displaced into another universe it would mean that the decay started in the 60s
