Hugh Jackman He prepares for his return Wolverine in a “Deadpool 3, news that shocked fans in September considering that Jackman’s character died at the end of 2017’s “Logan”. This movie, directed by James Mangold, was heavily touted as Jackman’s swan song Wolverine. Jackman said recently SiriusXM that his return as Wolverine was contingent on him not messing with the events of “Logan,” which both fans and the actor consider the perfect conclusion to a Wolverine iteration.

“It’s all because of this device that they have in the Marvel universe to move through timelines,” Jackman said of his return. “Now we can go back because he knew. So, I don’t have to fiddle with the timeline for ‘Logan,’ which was important to me. And I think it’s probably for the fans, too.”

“Oh my God! Everyone is chilling,” Mangold said wrote on Twitter. I’m just kidding! I’m all good! Logan will always be there. Multiple universes or prequel, time warp or wormhole, canon or non-canon or even rationale, I can’t wait to see what madness my dearest friends Ryan is cooking up Reynolds and Hugh Jackman!”
