Since 2000,there have been 7 10 - Men moving picture that have featured Wolverine in a central role . This mean that Jackman ’s exaggerated prevision actually came true 17 years later . Not only that , but the fact that Jackman is one of Hollywood’smost chopped superhero actorsshows that his health has been a invariant priority , meaning he has been more than capable of be the role over two decades afterwards . While it is no regenerative healing factor , it is about as close as a deadly human can get .

Deadpool 3 , meanwhile , will be the 8th movie to star Jackman in his purpose as Wolverine , meaning that it will surpass that prediction altogether . It is also rumour to be starring multiple other actors from Fox ’s X - Men franchise as the MCU continues a trend that began with Patrick Stewart ’s Professor X inDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , and most latterly with Kelsey Grammer ’s Beast inThe Marvels .

Why 7 X-Men Movies Seemed So Far-Fetched In 2000

This explain why , despite Fox ’s design to make a franchise out of itsX - Menmovies , the idea that it would ever guarantee six sequels was widely believed to be pathetic .

Superhero enfranchisement have taken over modern cinema , reserve histrion to trifle the same character for many years , and some have take up this to the extreme .

This was , however , before the MCU and DCEU were twinkle in their several studios ' center . Plus , it is mostly thanks to the lineament ofX - MenandSpider - Manthat the superhero writing style was catapult into the popularity see today , which has since been nurtured by the MCU for nearly two decennary . Now , Deadpool 3is capitalizing on the nostalgia that Jackman ’s Wolverine brings to the table - though it is still hard to imagine any other actor that could embody the role so well .
