Hugh Jackman is back as Wolverine in Ryan Reynolds' 'Deadpool 3' (CNBC)

Hugh Jackman will enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe alongside Ryan Reynolds in "Deadpool 3," due out in theaters Sept. 6, 2024.

Deadpool is one of several comic book properties that Disney acquired when it bought 20th Century Fox in 2019. That's probably why Disney has agreed to let "Deadpool 3" be rated R, even though the rest of the MCU filmography is rated PG-13 or lower. - Deadpool is one of several comic book properties that Disney acquired when it bought 20th Century Fox in 2019.

Deadpool 3 will bring Hugh Jackman's Wolverine into the MCU (Polygon)

Deadpool 3 brings Ryan Reynolds' wisecracking mercenary to Disney's Marvel Cinematic Universe, and he's bringing Hugh Jackman and Wolverine with him.

But it seems like Jackman just couldn’t say no to another spin with the adamantium claws, especially when it was Reynolds and Feige that were bringing the invitation.

Surely, Deadpool himself will bring up that awkward encounter in his next film. But they do have one trick up their sleeve, Reynolds says, and that’s when Hugh Jackman walks by in the background. Deadpool 3’s development apparently predates the Fox-Disney deal, which closed in early 2019. But Reynolds reveals that Deadpool 3 is on the way, and more importantly that Hugh Jackman will be reprising his role as Wolverine for the film.

[Spider-Man: No Way Home](https://www.denofgeek.com/spider-man-no-way-home/) and [Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness](https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/doctor-strange-in-the-multiverse-of-madness-review/)—not to mention the impending threat of more multiverse movies like [Secret Wars](https://www.denofgeek.com/secret-wars/)—it seems possible for Deadpool 3 to riff on just about any superhero concept it wishes. And frankly, that sounds like such an amusing premise that we’d love for it to be what the MCU Deadpool 3 ends up as. But ever the social media trickster, Reynolds also offered this tantalizing detail on this evening, “In case that’s not enough, before Disney bought Fox, Deadpool 3 was gonna be a road trip between Deadpool and Logan. This brings us (almost) to the present where it’s been revealed Wolverine will actually star in Deadpool 3. “So feel free to urinate on my section of the sidewalk,” Jackman’s “Reynolds” concludes. Among the very first few lines of dialogue in Deadpool (2016) is a bit in service to gently mocking Hugh Jackman, who would not be appearing in this movie. including by slaughtering that awful abomination of a “Deadpool” created by X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It’s what fans have always wanted to hear, especially now that Deadpool is in the MCU, but it always seemed like a pipe dream after Jackman hung up his claws with such finality in Logan (2017). [Deadpool 2](https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/deadpool-2-review-bigger-funnier-and-better-than-the-first/) (2018) begins with terrible, irrevocable, and inconsolable grief. and finds a paper cutout of a Hugh Jackman photograph stapled to his forehead. In the social media video, the Canadian actor sits on a sofa in a house, acting very vague about what he has planned for Deadpool 3, aka the first Merc with a Mouth movie set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That’s at least how Reynolds and Deadpool (arguably the same person at this point) saw it.

Hugh Jackman Returns As Wolverine Alongside Ryan Reynolds For ... (Forbes)

Deadpool 3 will be the first film of the series set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). How and to what extent the film exists within the MCU is not yet ...

Marvel Studios is taking its time laying the groundwork and making plans to introduce the mutants and X-Men characters within the MCU — although we do know Giancarlo Esposito was offered the role of Xavier or Magneto. Deadpool 3 is also going to be the first R-rated movie released in the MCU, although I wonder if they might also release a PG-13 version that’s comedically “censored” akin to Once Upon a Deadpool. Most likely, some sort of multiverse overlap — or “convergence,” a term Marvel Comics readers will recognize for its importance in multiverse events — is how they get Reynolds’ Deadpool and Jackman’s Wolverine into the MCU. That approach, combined with the constant violations of film “rules” by Deadpool movies, means there could be any number of explanations for Wolverine and Deadpool hopping from one universe to the other — Deadpool might tell you the size of the Disney-Fox merger created its own gravity and warped the space-time continuum, or that the two universes collided when the amount of money in each of them grew so large it caused them to be drawn together and crash into one another. Perhaps the loss of Xavier will lead Wolverine to seek out whomever killed his fellow X-Man, or maybe Deadpool himself will try to hunt down the person responsible and wind up on a multiverse “road trip” with Wolverine. Also confirmed is the release date — Deadpool 3 will hit theaters September 6th, 2024.

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine Brings Added Value To Ryan Reynolds ... (Forbes)

The third 'merc with the mouth' adventure, which will (at least somewhat) be part of the MCU, arrives 6.5 years after Deadpool 2.

Deadpool 2 earned $318 million domestic and $734 million worldwide on a $110 million budget, and an additional $6 million domestic and $45 million overseas (including $24 million in China) from the PG-13 Once Upon A Deadpool cut. I am hopeful that all parties will be smart enough to let Deadpool 3 stand on its own without resting on multiverse cameos or franchise-specific nostalgia (just as Multiverse of Madness was 90% ‘just’ a Doctor Strange sequel). It gives those indifferent to a third Deadpool a reason to care or be curious. I do wonder if the deal for Jackman involves a reigniting of the Greatest Showman IP, but bringing Jackman into Deadpool 3 is the very definition of an added value element. More importantly, they still want Logan to have monetizable value as ‘Wolverine’s last ride.’ Whether multiverse-hopping or non-continuity in-jokes, I’m guessing the Logan we meet in Deadpool 3 will either be an alternate universe version (maybe wearing the comics-accurate yellow spandex) or will merely exist between the continuities of Days of Future Past and Logan. Ryan Reynolds just dropped word, via an amusing self-mocking video, that A) Deadpool 3 (or whatever they end up calling it) will be opening theatrically on September 6, 2024 and B) will feature Hugh Jackman reprising as Wolverine.

This meant something of an unceremonious end to the studio's X-Men franchise, with X-Men: Dark Pheonix (2019) and The New Mutants (2020) not getting much in the way of fanfare.

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine will be in 'Deadpool 3.' Here's why that's ... (The Washington Post)

Ryan Reynolds has some big news: His Deadpool is not the only X-Man set to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Wolverine is coming with him.

21 is any indication, this Marvel team-up is in the right hands. There are plenty of options to justify Jackman’s Wolverine now walking in the land of the Avengers. Is that the loophole that will bring Jackman to the MCU? By the time “Deadpool 2” came along in 2018, Reynolds had separated himself from an X-Men movie franchise that was withering in the shadows of what Marvel Studios was accomplishing with the Avengers. This is the multiverse era at Marvel Studios right now, where alternate universes and alternate versions of heroes is a thing. Disney’s Marvel Studios had become the dominant creator of movies based on Marvel comics characters, and Reynolds’s “Deadpool” movies over at Fox were the only thing that could stand up to their might. Let’s not forget that in 2018’s “Deadpool 2,” a post-credits scene featured Deadpool getting his hands on time travel technology. Jackman’s Wolverine died very dramatically and in R-rated fashion in James Mangold’s “Logan,” a movie meant to be a swan song for a beloved portrayal of one of the most popular comic book characters ever. In a social media video Tuesday, Reynolds made the announcement of Jackman’s return to the X-Men movie world — which was especially shocking considering the character had died in 2017’s “Logan.” Reynolds proclaims a case of extreme writers block while preparing for “Deadpool 3,” which is set to arrive in theaters Sept. He realizes he’s now in the superhero movie big leagues at Marvel Studios, and maybe not quite ready for the moment, but he says he did have one idea. He then spun off into his own “Deadpool” movie in 2016, creating a bloody and R-rated corner of superhero cinema, which was unheard of at the time. Yes, Reynolds always has a way of throwing in songs you’d never expect to hear in a superhero setting.

[James Mangold posted](https://twitter.com/mang0ld/status/1574907829239939072) a cheeky GIF of Wolverine being killed in his movie, which many interpreted as a sign of frustration over the character’s return, though he clarified his stance in a [follow-up tweet](https://twitter.com/mang0ld/status/1574932521875173377). The Deadpool 3 news comes the same day as a major departure from another Marvel project. [video uploaded to his Twitter](https://twitter.com/VancityReynolds/status/1574865217141481477?s=20&t=pOZagP2cNBTQmwGFR1jPGg) shows Reynolds explaining that he had to miss the D23 Disney expo because he was too intensely focused on developing the third Deadpool film, which will be the character’s monumental first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In true Reynolds fashion, the video is set up as something emotional and triumphant—quintessential superhero stuff (well, barring him reading a Deadpool comic on what seems to be the toilet)—only for him to reveal that when it comes to new ideas for the franchise, he’s completely gassed. (The video also serves as a release date announcement: September 6, 2024.) [In a second video](https://twitter.com/VancityReynolds/status/1575101936700772355?s=20&t=pOZagP2cNBTQmwGFR1jPGg), the two actors poked fun at questions about the in-universe logistics of the X-Men hero’s return, since Wolverine died in 2017’s Logan. But that film featured a much different version of Deadpool, one lacking the character's signature costume and whose mouth was eventually sewn shut, cutting off his endless stream of quippy, fourth-wall-breaking wisecracks.

Everything we know about Deadpool 3 so far (The A.V. Club)

Now that Ryan Reynolds has convinced Hugh Jackman to return as Wolverine, let's add up what else we know around the upcoming Deadpool sequel.

This past June, on the [Post-Credits podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/post-credit-podcast/id1526064988), Reese and Wernick said that it will be a “fish-out-of-water” story and said they’re excited about all the ripe comedy material they’ll have to work with now that they’re free to reference the entire MCU. Marvel Studios has confirmed that the sequel will be rated R, as the previous two films were. We can’t even be sure this will be the same Wolverine, since the MCU is currently delving into alternate timelines, the multiverse, and even shape-shifters.
