‘Deadpool 3’ Set to Feature Multiple Wolverine Iterations
In a recent Twitter update by @RPK_NEWS11, it was revealed that Deadpool 3 will not be the only recipient of multiple character variations. The tweet further stated, “We’re also going to get at least one other Wolverine in Deadpool 3.“
How many Wolverine variants are there in Marvel Comics?
In Marvel Comics, there are typically six main characters associated with the Wolverine persona:
- James “Logan” Howlett (the original Wolverine)
- Laura Kinney (X-23)
- Daken (Akihiro)
- Old Man Logan
- Jimmy Hudson (Ultimate Universe)
- Sabretooth (occasionally associated with the Wolverine mantle)
The film is directed by Shawn Levy. In the film, Ryan Reynolds will reprise his role as Wade Wilson/Deadpool, alongside Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle, Stefan Kapičić as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, Rob Delaney as Peter, Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and new additions Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen. The script is penned by Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, Zeb Wells, Reynolds, and Levy.
In the upcoming film, Deadpool will travel to the future to save Wolverine from dying. Logan does not know who that guy is and wants him gone, but using a time machine and changing history gets them on the TVA’s radar. The TVA (Time Variance Authority) serves as a bureaucratic agency responsible for monitoring and maintaining the timeline of the Multiverse.
Deadpool 3 hits theaters on July 26, 2024.
