This story contains spoilers for...
"Deadpool & Wolverine."
Part of "Deadpool & Wolverine" takes place in the Void where superheroes are kept after the Time Variance Authority deems they are too messy for the multiverse.
When Deadpool arrives in the Void, depicted as a vast desert wasteland populated by supervillains, he is surrounded and is unsure how to flee.
A recognizable face appears. Chris Evans plays a blue-suited superhero who steps forward to defend Deadpool against the encroaching attackers.
Deadpool can't wait for Evans to say "Avengers assemble." Instead, Evans surprises Deadpool — and the audience — by saying "Flame On!"
To Entertainment Weekly, Evans said he was approached in the most direct fashion possible about appearing in "Deadpool." It seems Reynolds just sent him a text message and asked.
