As he gets ready to reprise his role as Wolverine in the MCU’s Deadpool & Wolverine, Hugh Jackman just shared a glimpse of a portion of his training regimen.
Hugh Jackman just gave an amazing peek at how long it took him to prepare for his MCU role, ahead of the much awaited release of Deadpool & Wolverine. Since the first X-Men film on Fox, Jackman has portrayed Wolverine on and off over the last twenty-four years. Jackman has demonstrated that he still possesses the ability to maintain his fighting form as Wolverine.
Hugh Jackman posted a short video toΒ Twitter.Β In the post, he thanked his personal trainer, Beth Lewis, for her hard work, as well as her canine companion, Andy, who can be seen barking at Jackman in encouragement. Jackman’s tweet and the video can be seen below:

Although Wolverine wasn’t depicted in much of the first Deadpool & Wolverine trailer, what was revealed did hint at possible roles for Wolverine. The conclusion of the video makes it very evident that he and Deadpool will battle at some point, and additional set footage with the two battling in front of the 20th Century Fox logo further reinforced this. A brief sight of Patch, a potential Wolverine variation, was also shown in the teaser, suggesting that Jackman may portray several iterations of the character.
“If Marvel is going to include a new version of Wolverine, that seems like the kind of secret that would be saved for the movie.”
It’s wise not to place too much weight on the reports that Hugh Jackman won’t be the sole Wolverine in the film because none have been confirmed as of yet. It would appear that any new Wolverine that Marvel plans to release would be best kept a secret until the film. As of right now, the only thing that is certain is that Jackman appears to be portraying at least two Wolverines in Deadpool & Wolverine.
