Fans of the Deadpool franchise have been eagerly awaiting any news about the upcoming third installment, and they were not disappointed when Ryan Reynolds took to social media to share a first look at himself as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in "Deadpool 3."
The internet went wild when Reynolds posted a picture of himself and Jackman in character, confirming Jackman's return as Wolverine in the highly anticipated film. The onscreen reunion of these two real-life friends and fictional frenemies has been a major talking point among fans, but this particular image created an even bigger buzz because it showed Jackman's Wolverine wearing the iconic yellow X-Men suit from the comics for the first time.
While Reynolds is seen sporting his signature red Deadpool suit, Jackman dons the yellow suit that fans have been eagerly waiting to see on the big screen. Reynolds captioned the picture with a simple "Don't blink," further adding to the excitement.
For those who may not know, Jackman has portrayed Wolverine in the X-Men films for years, but he has always been seen in a black suit. This will be the first time that audiences will see him in the yellow and blue costume that closely resembles the one from the comics.
In addition to the exciting reveal of Jackman's Wolverine suit, it has been reported that Jennifer Garner will be reprising her role as Elektra in "Deadpool 3." The film will also see the return of Rob Delaney as Sugar Bear, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, and Stefan Kapicic as Colossus. Newcomers to the franchise include Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen.
Reynolds and Jackman previously shared a video explaining how Wolverine is alive in "Deadpool 3" despite his apparent death in the 2017 film "Logan." The video addressed various timeline questions, the canon of the "Logan" film, frequently asked questions about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and whether or not they can continue this ongoing story.
"Deadpool 3" is directed by Shawn Levy, who has worked with both Reynolds and Jackman in the past. Levy's previous directorial credits include films like "The Adam Project" in 2022 and "Real Steel" in 2011.
Fans can mark their calendars for the release of "Deadpool 3," as it is scheduled to hit theaters on September 6, 2024. With the return of Jackman's Wolverine and the highly anticipated onscreen reunion of Reynolds and Jackman, this film is sure to be a must-watch for fans of the franchise.
