I hope this turns out well. I’ll be honest ending his time as wolverine with Logan was probably the single greatest cinematic ending for a superhero ever. There have been bigger endings, but few as impactful and well done.

Agree, though because the quality of the movies he’s been in have varied so widely I just try to treat each Hugh Wolverine as a separate entity. Like James Bond, or Dr Who, the same character but also separate. Continuities be damned :)

In my mind that was what made Logan so great: it was powerhouse performance, served by a story that was great irrespective of which specific timeline(s) it was part of.

I really wish it didn’t turn so Beyond Thunderdome in the final act of that movie. It just felt like a really huge pace change, but it was such a great send off for all of those original X-men cinematic characters that I forgave the movie for it.

Logan was confirmed when it came out to be an alternate Fox universe - not the main one.

This looks great. Also a pretty good way to make Hugh look jacked without having him destroy his body for another moving.

If you're new to comics, comic book movies, superhero history, you might not already know, no one dead ever stays dead, even those given the grandest most emotional sendoffs.

no. good. character. stays. dead.

Cinematic Logan is dead, just far off in the future dead.

I don't understand why Wolverine in Deadpool 3 was ever a matter of debate when Deadpool 2 literally ended with Logan's death being undone. It may have been a joke at the time, but now the joke got a sequel, so let's just roll with it.

10

Deadpool 2 didn't touch Logan, the bit with Wolverine at the end was from X-Men Origins: Wolverine, not Logan.

The time travel gag will allow a team up with Wolverine from before the events of Logan.

13

2027 IIRC, and Logan was confirmed during production to be an alternate universe and not the main Fox timeline.

They'll need to include a scene with Wemby or Boban Marjanovic to make Wolverine seem the right height

#1 reason Tom Cruise should have been cast for Wolverine.

I hate to say it, but Cruise is short and scary. I could honestly see it working.

Hugh Jackman is playing Wolverine again? I thought he is done

12

I vaguely remember him saying around the time of Logan that the only way he'd come back again is to act opposite RR's Deadpool.

15

What's he going to do, say no to his boyfriend?

That makes for a bad home life.

These two have the bromance we all wish we had.

I'm not the only one that started humming the animated theme when I saw this, am I?

Honestly that looks like gash to me. It's like when they cartooned up Bumblebee; faithful to the source but goofy as fuck in live action.

Since it's Deadpool, ima guess that's the point.

Yeah. If it weren't some Deadpool Multiverse nonsense it would look ridiculous. I love the 90s X-Men as much as the next guy, but trying to build a film franchise in the 21st century, the yellow would not fly. I can't wait to see this one.

I feel like there's been a fair bit of justification built up over the years that they could justify yellow costumes in an MCU X-Men.

Like, in Netflix's Daredevil, we see the cut-resistant yellow fabric created by Melvin Potter and eventually used in Kingpin and Daredevil's suits.

Then we see Daredevil cameo in She-Hulk, saying that he's picking up a new suit, and we see that a fair portion of it is yellow - though in fairness to your point, I think his yellow costume is pretty ugly and doesn't really fly. I'm excited to see how Deadpool 3 handles the yellow, and I hope that the MCU can find a way to justify the yellow somehow, even if it's a transitional costume or something equipped for a specific type of mission.

It looks... absolutely atrocious in real life, but it's still pretty cool to it in real life finally.

I think there is a stab wound! Right thigh, there are 3 perfectly spaced lines just above his knee.

"I already had to change my costume three times today!"

"Oh, I just love the feel of you inside me Logan. Ohhh, do that again, not that OHHH that's it baby, more more... Why did you stop? It was feeling so goooood..."

1 quick costume change, and all is good.

2

I love it. I think the yellow looks great, happy to see him in his rightful costume

Hugh Jackman’s arms aren’t hairy enough to pull of that wolverine exposed arm look :p

There’s a photo of it on TheBeat so it’s possible.

Edit - This image was from a deleted scene in The Wolverine. Thanks to Mongostein for the correction!

That’s the mask from the deleted scene in The Wolverine.

Thanks for the correction. I didn't read carefully I guess. :)

Let's be honest. The mask would look fucking stupid in real life.

Even the yellow costume is pushing it. But I appreciate the effort.

I'm so glad he came back for another turn in the suit. Really looking forward to this one!

3

That costume makes it look like a tiny wolverine is piloting a larger suit, earth worm Jim style.

2

It looks like the art department accidentally glued in the shoulder pads too far from the neck and left a gap in the suit. Noticed it last minute but said fuck it.

Honestly speaking this does have the possibility of being the last decent Marvel movie since End Game.
