Fans were left in awe when Jackman bid farewell to the character in the critically acclaimed film Logan back in 2017. However, it seems that the actor couldn’t resist the allure of the mutant superhero, as he is now poised to make another comeback. He posted the first image of his new Wolverine costume on his Instagram account, along with Ryan Reynolds dressed as Deadpool. Anyone with an eye for detail would immediately notice that this iteration of the iconic Wolverine character differs significantly from the portrayal we have come to know and love in the movies. With a striking resemblance to the classic Wolverine ensemble that graced the pages of comic books, this particular look exudes a sense of nostalgia and pays homage to the beloved character.
In 2016, Deadpool made an undeniable impact on the box office with an impressive worldwide gross of USD 782 million, proving that it is a cinematic gem that is a force to be reckoned with. Further establishing their box office dominance, its sequel that was released in 2018 did not only meet expectations, but rather exceeded them by amassing a staggering USD 785 million in global ticket sales.
Over the years, Jackman’s portrayal of Wolverine has captivated audiences and solidified his status as one of the most beloved actors in the superhero genre. The actor reprised the role of Wolverine in a series of films, including X2, X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Wolverine, and Logan.
Steering this thrilling project is none other than the renowned director Shawn Levy, who previously collaborated with Ryan Reynolds in the hit film Free Guy and the Netflix blockbuster The Adam Project. The film’s plot remains shrouded in mystery, but with Deadpool finally joining the MCU after a series of independent movies made by Fox, one thing is certain: the multiverse plays a major role.
