Deadpool & Wolverine is fast approaching, and as rumours continue to swirl about the threequel's cameos, we can discount at least one thanks to the Merc with the Mouth's co-creator, Rob Liefeld.
He's taken to X to confirm he won't be making an appearance in the long-awaited team-up movie. We saw him in 2016's Deadpool, though he later revealed he'd turned down the chance to appear in the sequel two years later.
"I hope this does not get me any grief, but no, I am not in this film," Liefeld told his followers on social media. "No, no. No complaining, I just don’t want to tease anyone, letting you know straight up. Thank you [though]."
Despite not making a physical appearance, trailers for the Marvel Studios movie have confirmed the writer and artist will at least be referenced.

Holy Chimichangas! The Merc with a Mouth is Finally teaming up with Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine on the big screen in Deadpool & Wolverine. After Jackman retired as the character, we didn’t think we would get a chance to see this happen. Since the trailer reveal, we have seen this film firmly takes place in the current Multiverse Saga that the MCU is going through. With that, we’ll see our heroes cross over with a lot of surprises, and it appears to be the final send-off for much of the Fox/Marvel universe. Here is who we want to see show up during the film.
Quicksilver
Evan Peters’ take on the speedster turned into one of the most fun sections of the later X-Men movies. I still watch him evacuating the X-Mansion set to Sweet Dreams on YouTube every once in a while. It would be great to see...

The upcoming MCU project Deadpool & Wolverine represents a range of good things for the overall MCU. It is set to see a grand entrance of X-Men and a range of mutants into the universe, and will also see the return of the iconic Hugh Jackman as the titular character, last seen in 2017’s Logan.
Jackman’s portrayal of the character has firmly been a part of the mainstream and has led to Wolverine becoming a global icon, recognized not just by comic fans, but by everyone else as well. While we have seen Jackman find immense success with his role as Wolverine, the mutant itself has undergone a plethora of development with respect to various comic book storylines.

Star Wars tends to enjoy the comfort of the known. As the galaxy has expanded on the big and small screens, new stories have been told in and around the original, prequel and sequel trilogies, featuring familiar faces and settings that the audience has had a connection to since childhood in most cases. There’s certainly nothing wrong with this level of familiarity. It’s something we all crave from time to time — and not just in Star Wars — be it a family recipe that’s been passed down through multiple generations, or an old, perfect-fitting sweatshirt that’s survived countless washes.
But there comes a time when viewers want to step into the unknown, and the latest Star Wars series, The Acolyte, offers exactly that. Set a century before Star Wars: The Phantom Menace in the era of the High Republic, the Leslye Headland-created Disney+ series explores a time...

Marvel Studios is still finding its director for the much-anticipated Avengers 5, and director Shawn Levy is reportedly at the forefront of prospects. The Canadian filmmaker has quite a lot going on after working on Deadpool & Wolverine, and now, he’s busy with the production of Stranger Things Season 5, so it’s not quite sure whether he wants another job on his plate.

This article from the Disney+ series The Acolyte (2024) Season 1 Episode 2 contains significant spoilers.
The second episode of the inaugural season of The Acolyte begins with Mae breaking into a local Jedi temple in Olega. She pays a local child to distract security. When she arrives, she enters the sleeping quarters of a man named Torbin. He looks like a Jedi, meditating or sleeping while hovering in the air.
Mae tells Torbin he must pay and asks him to attack her with everything he has, but he doesn’t move or open his eyes. She begins to attack, but clearly, some shield prevents her from getting close to him. The sharp knives Mae used to kill Indara also do not pierce the shield. Mae hears someone approaching, so she escapes through a window in the ceiling.
Mae visits a friend in town, Qimir. She needs a weapon to kill the “impenetrable” Torbin.

Stars: Amandla Stenberg, Lee Jung-jae, Manny Jacinto, Dafne Keen, Charlie Barnett, Jodie Turner-Smith, Carrie-Anne Moss | Created by Leslye Headland
Total number of episodes: 8 Episodes watched for review: 2
Created by Leslye Headland (the TV talent behind Russian Doll), The Acolyte is an eight part Star Wars TV series that marks a significant break from the spin-off material we’ve seen so far. For one thing, it’s set 100 years before the events of The Phantom Menace, meaning that slavish fan service can (hopefully) be kept to a minimum. And for another, the fact that the series is essentially positioned as a murder mystery shows a welcome attempt to play around with genre in the Star Wars universe, something that has arguably been a long time coming.
The show opens in style, with Carrie-Anne Moss’ Jedi Master Indara facing off against a would-be assassin who turns out to be equally proficient in the ways of the Force.

Beloved Character Will Skip Deadpool and Wolverine to Avoid 'Messing with Logan's Timeline' - Main Image
Deadpool & Wolverine is expected to feature several surprising cameos, but there’s one character fans have been wanting to see: X-23. However, it seems like it won't happen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to avoid messing with Logan’s timeline.
Fans know by now that Wolverine dies in the 2017 Logan, which was supposed to be Hugh Jackman’s final movie as the adamantium-clawed superhero.
However, the actor will make his triumphant return in Deadpool & Wolverine.
Given X-23’s importance in Logan and the possibility that the third Deadpool film may feature remnants of the 20 Century Studios movie, it’s the perfect time for Dafne Keen to reprise her role as Laura Kinney after seven years.
Sadly, she confirmed in an interview with On Demand Entertainment that it wasn’t happening.
“It's sad.

If there is one fandom that is allowed to have the most trust issues, it is probably Marvel fans. The franchise is known for being especially untrustworthy with the information it gives out. The secrecy surrounding every single project in the MCU is ingrained in the very fabric of the franchise. The perfect example of how far they are willing to go to keep key details under wraps is what Andrew Garfield did in the days leading up to the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Regardless, the Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman starrer has raked in sufficient hype and nostalgia to sail forward as one of the most anticipated Marvel movies in recent times, setting up the stage for a mega box-office showdown.

We're expecting to see some big cameos in Deadpool & Wolverine when it arrives in theaters later this summer.
However, it would be wise to keep expectations in check; after all, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness featured the likes of Professor X and Mister Fantastic but was somehow still deemed a disappointment by many fans (likely because rumours promised Spider-Man and an evil Iron Man played by Tom Cruise).
With that in mind, Deadpool & Wolverine might not be as star-studded as expected, especially with Avengers: Secret Wars on the horizon. Still, we're bound to see some characters from the X-Men franchise's past, right?

When Logan came out in 2017, James Mangold had to age up Hugh Jackman to play an old man Wolverine. Seven years later, Jackman breaks his rule of returning to a character for a special case, but he would only be older. The Aussie had occupied the character since the genesis of the modern run of superhero movies at the turn of the millennium. Deadpool & Wolverine is a welcomed return for Jackman to the X-Men world, and it amazingly still makes sense despite the fandom already saying goodbye to him as the character years ago.
However, playing an intensely feral character for 24 years has made this last go much more difficult for Jackman. Especially with his older age. Deadline reports on an interview People Magazine had with Deadpool & Wolverine stars, Jackman and Ryan Reynolds. Jackman admits, “When I came back to it, it was really fun and I was thrilled.

National Treasure 3 will make the franchise a trilogy and the success of the upcoming movie will determine if more installments can be added. Directed by Jon Turteltaub, the National Treasure franchise was a commercial success although the response from critics was not celebratory. Still, the franchise deserves one more installment.

I have to eat a lot. For me, for my body type, I’m naturally skinny. "To get the size on, that’s the hardest bit. That’s the bit that does my head in.” His friend agreed: “Yeah, the five, six meals a day, which sounds great to some people. I’m sure they’re like, ‘Well, that sounds great.

Hugh Jackman is sharing the hardest part of getting back into superhero shape for Deadpool & Wolverine.
The actor, who reprises Wolverine for the Shawn Levy-directed movie, recently chatted with co-star Ryan Reynolds about transforming back into the character for the first time since 2017’s Logan.
The Free Guy star initially praised his longtime friend for his dedication to physical training. “Just the sheer relentlessness that you dedicated yourself towards stunts, choreography,” Reynolds, 47, said during the conversation for People. “It was the first time I’d ever seen how invaluable a background in song and dance is when you are doing an action movie.”
“You hit your marks in those fight scenes with speed and confidence, the likes of which I have never seen. I don’t care if you were 25, 35, 45 or 55. It was lightning,” he continued of his praise. “Watching you do what just looked like a clinic on...

Deadpool & Wolverine will see Hugh Jackman reprise his role as Wolverine for the first time since his exit in 2017’s Logan. The physicality that was required for the character took a heavy toll on the actor’s body, which contributed to his leaving the character behind. However, the actor is back for another round with Ryan Reynolds, but this does not mean Jackman would be the MCU’s Wolverine.

The great thing about Jackman and Reynolds is that they are best friends in real life so it wasn’t difficult to convince people that they are the baddest pair of anti-heroes in the comic book world. For one, they love trolling each other the same way their characters would.

When Hugh Jackman hung up his claws as Wolverine in the wake of 2017’s Logan, fans were sure that they would never see Jackman essay the role again, given the toll the character had taken on his body. However, as soon as it was announced that Hugh Jackman would be essaying the role of Wolverine in Deadpool 3, that too in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, fans could not contain their excitement for the only MCU release of 2024.

After Dafne Keen's acclaimed performance as Laura/X-23 in 2017's Logan, it was generally assumed that the young actress would get the opportunity to reprise the role down the line.
Of course, this was before Disney acquired 20th Century Fox's assets in 2019's highly-publicized takeover.
Keen has since confirmed that there were indeed tentative plans in place for an X-23 spinoff before the acquisition, but said she didn't hear anything about it after the deal went through. However, the announcement that Marvel Studios was moving forward with a third Deadpool movie (now titled Deadpool and Wolverine) gave the His Dark Materials and The Acolyte star hope that we could see the clawed mutant follow the Merc With a Mouth into MCU.

When Hugh Jackman bid farewell to Wolverine in 2017's Logan, it was unclear what 20th Century Fox had planned for the clawed mutant moving forward.
Had the Disney/Fox merger not happened (and assuming Dark Phoenix didn't bomb), the next X-Men movie would have likely shifted focus to the 2000s. Given Wolverine's popularity, we'd imagine the idea was to recast the role if not there, then definitely somewhere down the line.
Fortunately, Marvel Studios and Ryan Reynolds managed to convince Jackman to reprise the role for Deadpool & Wolverine. In an interview with People, the actor explained why he walked away from Logan in the first place.
"I had got to the point probably 10 years ago I was like, I'm not enjoying it. It was hurting. It was tough," Jackman admits. "But I've had a break, and I've been doing a lot of dance. I've been doing stage shows. And so...

Robert Downey Jr.’s biggest comeback was also the savior of Marvel Studios. The actor made his MCU debut with Iron Man and it was a hammer on the nail gaining widespread attention from the global audience. Downey’s Iron Man gave the studio an absolute boost propelling it to the road of success.

While the studio lacked faith in the movie and the actor, director Jon Favreau could somehow convince the producer to move forward with the narrative with Downey. Following the success of the movie, there was room for more sequels and Downey’s Iron Man movies came to be one of the most remarkable franchises in the MCU.

5 Sexiest X-Men Characters Ever - Main Image
It’s safe to say that the X-Men universe is filled with alluring characters. Over the years, we’ve been introduced to mutants that have made our jaw drop. While fans have debated the title of the hottest X-Men Character for years, we decided to finally settle the debate (or spark it up even more).
In this list, we will rank the X-Men characters based on their attractive qualities—the flair, charisma, and dynamic personalities behind these characters that make them so desirable. So, let’s get to it.
Wolverine (Hugh Jackman)
With a skeleton laced with adamantium, Wolverine has always been a fan favourite. But Hugh Jackman’s dedication to the role made this mutant a charmer. Much like Robert Downey Jr.’s Ironman, the role of Wolverine fits Hugh Jackman like a glove.

Bryan Cranston is a true great, and while the Argylle star is no stranger to genre fare, he's yet to star in a comic book movie or TV show.
The actor was a fan-favourite choice to play Lex Luthor for a time, but that always felt like a knee-jerk response to what a terrific job he did as a bald antagonist in Breaking Bad. Of course, we're also well-aware that many of you would love to see him portray Stan "The Man" Lee in a future biopic.
Today, we have word from scooper @MyTimeToShineH that Cranston has met with Marvel Studios about a mystery MCU role. Kevin Feige has general meetings with lots of actors, so there's nothing to say this will lead anywhere.
It's an undeniably exciting prospect, though, particularly with movies like The Fantastic Four, Avengers 5, and the X-Men reboot on the horizon.

Already, Dafne Keen has been a part of Marvel’s storytelling in Logan. She’d led the way in the BBC-hbo adaptation of beloved books His Dark Materials. And now, she’s heading to another deeply beloved universe – blasting into Star Wars as The Acolyte’s Jedi Padawan, Jecki.
Empire spoke to Keen about getting her Padawan braid, donning that alien Theelin makeup, and why her character is ‘Jedi David Bowie’ (duh).
Empire: When does your journey with Star Wars begin? Were you a fan already?
Dafne Keen: I’m a big fan. My dad got me into it – when I was seven, he made me watch the original trilogy. Do you remember those video stores, where people used to rent movies? Like, DVDs? When those were still a thing, my dad made me watch the three of them. Obsessed is not even close. I then watched the later trilogy,...

During this year's CinemaCon, attendees were treated to a special Deadpool & Wolverine PSA. That featured both characters going on a foul-mouthed tirade aimed at moviegoers who don't silence their cellphones. Now, it's found its way online!
The video has started playing in theaters and hasn't been "officially" released (at least not yet). However, we have a version recorded by a fan and this thing is absolutely hilarious.
A very angry Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) makes a series of threats before being calmed down by the Merc with the Mouth (Ryan Reynolds). Things between them get weird fast, but it's clear the clawed mutant doesn't appreciate seeing someone's phone light up or start ringing during a trip to the movies.
This Variant of Logan also appears to have a short temper, something we're sure contributes to his hatred of the chatty Wade Wilson.

It’s been 10 years since X-Men: Days of Future Past hit theatres, ushering in an endgame to a universe that would not be replicated until Avengers: Infinity War, four years later. It closed the book in the older generation of X-Men that had carried the franchise until their younger variants had been introduced in X-Men: First Class.

Deadpool & Wolverine has all the makings of a $1 billion hit. Those have become a rarity since the pandemic and, in the eyes of many, this will be the movie that puts the Marvel Cinematic Universe back on the right track.
Fans are understandably thrilled to see the Merc with the Mouth and Logan share the screen, though there were initial concerns about bringing Hugh Jackman back into the fold after what proved to be a perfect send-off in 2017.
Logan killed the clawed mutant in a way he can't come back from. Undoing that would be nothing short of sacrilegious, but the latest trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine confirmed this is a Variant of the X-Man who somehow failed his world.
Now, the first meeting between Wade Wilson and Logan is spotlighted in a new still from the upcoming threequel.

When Hugh Jackman signed on to a third Deadpool movie as the Wolverine, it was so spontaneous that he forgot to tell his agent first.
The actor recently sat down with Fandango, alongside his co-star Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy, to talk about his decision to reprise the superhero role after being killed off in 2017’s Logan.
“I was on my way, I was just driving, and literally, just like a bolt of lightning, came this knowing deep in my gut that I wanted to do this film with Ryan,” Jackman explained. “For Deadpool and Wolverine to come back together. I swear to you, When I said I was done, I really thought I was done.

The first trailer for Deadpool and Wolverine smashed global records back in February by scoring 365 million views in 24 hours, and the Merc With a Mouth's MCU debut has now broken another pre-release record.
Tickets went on sale earlier this week with a new teaser (check it out below), and the CEO of AMC Theaters, Adam Aron, has now announced that the superhero team-up movie sold more tickets on day one than any other R-rated movie in the company's history.
This is just one theater chain, of course, but AMC is the biggest in the world, with the largest share of the U.S. theater market ahead of Regal and Cinemark.
The prospect of seeing Ryan Reynolds' Wade Wilson joining forces with Hugh Jackman's Logan is clearly a huge draw, and while it obviously remains to be seen how the movie ultimately performs at the box office, this is a very good sign.

Hugh Jackman reprises his X-Men superhero role in Deadpool & Wolverine and just revealed he committed to starring opposite Ryan Reynolds even before talking to his agent.
The actor said he thought he was done playing the superhero after his character was killed off in 2017’s Logan. However, Reynolds pitched him the idea of bringing Deadpool and Wolverine together, and he couldn’t resist putting on the claws again.
“I was on my way, I was just driving, and literally, just like a bolt of lightning, came this knowing deep in my gut that I wanted to do this film with Ryan,” Jackman said in an interview with Fandango. “For Deapdool and Wolverine to come back together.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe lost its biggest hero when Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man fell in Avengers: Endgame, but not after saving the day/Earth 616. Ever since then, the MCU has struggled to create the kind of projects that made it such a global success in the first place.
While most fans have asked for Kevin Feige and company to focus on originality and come up with new narratives that delve into the wealth of characters the Comics have on offer, some have also pressed for a Robert Downey Jr. return. Whether that is a potential option especially considering the actor’s own wishes, Feige had previously claimed they would ‘never want to mafically undo’ Stark’s heroic death.

“At last, we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last, we will have our revenge,” Darth Maul says to his shadowy Sith master in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Twenty-five years after that prequel film set the stage for the rise of Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader, the new live-action series The Acolyte will show us the origin of the Sith plan to destroy the Jedi once and for all. That story actually begins 100 years before the prequel trilogy, when the Sith were thought to be all but extinct.
