Ryan Reynolds Reveals First Look at Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in Deadpool 3
In a surprise move, Ryan Reynolds recently took to his Instagram story to share the first photo of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in the highly anticipated film, Deadpool 3. The image showcases the two beloved characters, Deadpool and Wolverine, strolling together down a sandy path.
Fans couldn’t help but notice Jackman’s impressive physique, which he achieved through intense training and a strict diet, involving a significant intake of chicken. Additionally, the actor dons Wolverine’s iconic sideburns and signature hairstyle, making it a nostalgic sight for fans of the character.
Deadpool 3 is not only a long-awaited team-up between Deadpool and Wolverine, but it also marks the return of Jennifer Garner as Elektra. Garner previously portrayed Elektra in the films Daredevil and Elektra. Unfortunately, no photos of Garner in character have been unveiled at this time. With the film currently in production, fans eagerly await more glimpses from the set.
The surprising appearance of Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine raises the question of how the character is returning after his apparent demise in the movie Logan. The answer lies in Marvel’s beloved storytelling device – the multiverse. With the existence of alternate realities and dimensions, the possibilities for character crossovers are endless.
The film is set to be directed by Shawn Levy, who has previously collaborated with Reynolds on other projects such as Free Guy and The Adam Project. Alongside Reynolds and Jackman, the star-studded cast includes Morena Baccarin reprising her role as Vanessa, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Karan Soni as Dopinder, and Rob Delaney as Peter.
Fans should mark their calendars as Deadpool 3 is scheduled to hit theaters on May 4, 2024. Despite now being a Disney film, it is expected to maintain the irreverent and edgy tone of its predecessors, earning itself a hard R-rating.
The reveal of Hugh Jackman’s return as Wolverine in Deadpool 3 has sent shockwaves through the Marvel fandom. With the multiverse in play, the film promises to deliver an exciting and action-packed adventure that fans won’t want to miss.
