Deadpool 3, which is set to hit theaters in May 2024, has provided a new look at the character ‘Wolverine’ new attire.
Hugh Jackman will reprise his role as Wolverine in Deadpool 3 for the third time, continuing the part he allegedly played in Logan in 2017.
Of course, he plays Deadpool alongside Ryan Reynolds. This morning, Reynolds tweeted the above first-look shot of Deadpool and Wolverine side by side on social media.
It’s a still from the upcoming Deadpool 3, and what makes it stand out is that Hugh Jackman is dressed entirely in the classic yellow-and-blue Wolverine attire that fans have been dying to see him wear.
Marvel Studios hired Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Loeglin to write Deadpool 3, with Free Guy director Shawn Levy also on board.
The franchise’s future remained uncertain after Disney acquired Fox, the studio that produced the first two films in the trilogy. Deadpool is now ‘officially’ part of the Marvel Studios franchise.
Deadpool made a lot of money at the box office in 2016, grossing $782 million worldwide. Even that massive number was surpassed in 2018 by the sequel, which grossed $785 million worldwide.
Hugh Jackman has been playing Wolverine in films since X-Men in 2000. He reprised the role in X2 (2003), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), The Wolverine (2013), and Logan (2017).
