Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman to star in Deadpool III (2024)

[Set Harth]

^ Yep, and the only real reference to a prior X-movie in Logan is to the original film.

And he has the sword from The Wolverine.

Just catching up...

I didn't see the first two Deadpool movies, and to be honest I think its way past time for Hugh Jackman to hang up his adamantium claws. He was 31 when the first X-Men film came out, and he's 55 now - that's just pushing it too far, regarding a character who's not supposed to age.

I thought I was going disenjoy () them, but I absolutely loved them...

Watch Them, Watch Them
You Will See
Watch Them
They Are Filled With Glee
(and Naughtiness and such...)

I'm 56, and I have to come in the house and take a nap after an hour of yard work.

I am 67 (yesterday - no shill for birthday wishes!!!) and I just did this selfsame thing, after picking up brush and branches...I , too, need a celebrity trainer...or perhaps a Gardener...or, maybe a time machine!

it is a marked reversal of his clear prior practice of keeping Sony and Amy’s movies at arms length.

The money talked there, not story.

Well, the Sony situation is its own bundle of weird, with Sony being the clear odder younger sibling, so I don't hold Feige responsible for including Brock in the post-credits scene. (Nor do I mind that scene.)

How does “Hey Hugh, just signed off the DP3 script draft featuring you in an co-title role and it’s being couriered to you now. How about you don’t sign up?” make any sense?

Because that's a false timeline you made up?

He advised Jackman not to come back, but, since Jackman was enthusiastic for it, and it's a clear money-maker, he found a way to make it work. Makes sense to me.

Wolverine's not dead at the end of Logan anyway.

Well, he is, but he'll recover. X-24 had a fully functional healing factor in his blood, and some (a possibly tiny anount) of his blood would have mixed with Logan's, who is obviously a complete match.

It may take a little while, but he'll regenerate.

Sure, why not? This is supposed to be an infinite multiverse after all. Somewhere, out in the infinite multiverse, it happened exactly as you described it simply because you described it this way right now.

If you want to get really nitpicky and technical, which we probably do since we're Trekkies and comic book nerds, you could say that he's not "coming back" since he's playing a new version of the character.

 

[Tosk]

Coming back to the franchise. Just as Patrick Stewart "came back" when he appeared in Doctor Strange 2.

 

[JD]

I understand that's what most people mean when they say that.

 

[DarrenTR1970]

Someone on YouTube uploaded a brief IMAX clip that's an extended look at the diner scene as well as a fourth wall break regarding Ant Man/Giant Man's corpse.

Is X-24 coming back?

 

[Relayer1]

Is X-24 coming back?

It's not out of the question. I'd think that, his brain being completely scrambled by the adamantium bullet, it would grow back "clean" without whatever tampering and programming had been done. A revived X-24 would be a blank slate.

 

[Set Harth]

I guess I just assumed X-24 was dead at that point by the way the movie handles things, meaning I assumed his healing factor was not actually at the level of pre-trouble Wolverine.

Well, it was a hypothetical, yeah. Simplified hypothetical, definitely.

And humans are contradictory beings and change their minds every day. Multiple times.

But, it seems contradictory that the person with ultimate sign off would say “I advise you emphatically, don’t do this thing (that I’m going to rubber stamp in the relatively near future)”

Marvel Boss Kevin Feige Admits He Warned Hugh Jackman “Don’t Come Back” For ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ “I said, ‘Let me give you a piece of advice, Hugh. Don’t come back. You had the greatest ending in history with Logan. That’s not something we should undo.'”

I know Fox, not Disney, produced Logan but killing off/retiring the fan favorite characters and him not wanting them to come back might help explain why the Marvel movies are now "underperforming."

 

[HIjol]

Interesting advice by Feige...and pretty good surmising, @the G-man!

 

[Set Harth]

Wolverine getting killed by a tree stump is the greatest ending in history?

I honestly don't see what one has to do with the other. it seems like you're stretching more than Reed Richards with that one.

Marvel has always been about its characters. Certain characters are staples of its brand. Feige has allowed most of them to be killed off/retired/replaced with less popular characters. Now, he's telling the hugely popular actor who is famous for one of the most popular characters his studio owns not to come back because the story is over. As a studio head it is practically professional misconduct.

So telling Hugh to try to not compromise the artistic integrity of a good ending to a film is wrong?
