Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds can be seen in action in the latest teaser for “Deadpool & Wolverine.”

At long last, Hugh Jackman has reverted back to his Wolverine persona.

The latest teaser for “Deadpool & Wolverine” from Marvel Studios debuted on Monday, showcasing video of Jackman donning the Wolverine suit for the first time since “Logan” in 2017. After being chosen for a task by the Time Variance Authority from “Loki,” he teams up with Ryan Reynolds’s character, Deadpool.

In the opening scene of the teaser, Deadpool approaches Wolverine in a bar, asking for assistance and letting him know that his “world” has fallen apart.

The guy played by Matthew Macfadyen exclaims, “This Wolverine let down his entire world.” Deadpool is told by Wolverine that he is not a “hero,” and the two fighters engage in combat in front of the wreckage of the 20th Century Fox emblem.

The first time the famous appearance of Wolverine from the “X-Men” comic books has been included into a live-action movie is when Jackman’s character wears a yellow outfit. In a sequence where Wolverine bemoans his suit, the first “X-Men” film, which came out in 2000, parodied anticipation that he would don such an ensemble. 

A new teaser for “Deadpool & Wolverine” suggests MCU ties.

After Disney acquired 21st Century Fox in 2019, which held the film rights to “X-Men” and “Deadpool,” Deadpool will also appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the first time in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” The teaser released on Monday suggests possible crossovers with the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe. Deadpool and Wolverine are seen leaping into what appears to be one of Doctor Strange’s portals, and there is also a glimpse of what appears to be a massive Ant-Man helmet.

The teaser also has a joke on Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige in true “Deadpool” fashion. “Deadpool declares, ‘Cocaine is the one thing that Feige said is off limits,'” pointing to worries that the R-rated series could be muted under Disney. Deadpool broke the camera earlier this month during a sneak peek of the movie at CinemaCon after yelling, “Suck it, Fox! Disneyland is where I’m heading.”

Jackman’s much awaited return to Wolverine, who perished at the end of “Logan,” will take place in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Because the “Logan” ending was so final, Jackman stated for years following that he never expected to portray Wolverine again. However, he shocked supporters by announcing he would play the same role again in 2022. The actor later admitted to CNN’s Chris Wallace that he “really thought I was done,” but he was drawn back to the role of Deadpool played by Ryan Reynolds.

When Wolverine’s shadow appeared in the first “Deadpool & Wolverine” teaser trailer, which aired before the Super Bowl in February, fans were left waiting for his arrival. However, the trailer ended with the title before Wolverine appeared on screen. A member of the Time Variance Authority, which regulates time flow, is portrayed by Macfadyen (“Succession”) among the other cast members.

Will the ending of “Logan” be undone by “Deadpool & Wolverine?”

There are some who are worried that “Deadpool & Wolverine” may ruin Wolverine’s heartbreaking death scene from “Logan.” However, Jackman and Reynolds have already said that the ending of the 2017 film will remain unchanged.

In a September 2022 video with Jackman, Reynolds clarified that “Logan” takes place in 2029. Completely unrelated item. Not addressing that, Logan passed away in “Logan.”

The statement in the teaser about “this Wolverine” might possibly suggest that Jackman is portraying a distinct character from the one shown in “Logan.” Marvel has previously shown, in the films Loki and Spider-Man: No Way Home, that different iterations of its heroes exist in other realms.

With the studio’s last release, “The Marvels,” a significant box office setback in November, “Deadpool & Wolverine” will be a crucial litmus test for Marvel to determine whether superhero fatigue has set in among moviegoers. The movie “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” which positioned Jonathan Majors to play a villain similar to Thanos as the next big bad guy in the Marvel universe, likewise did poorly at the box office in February 2023. After being found guilty of beating his ex-girlfriend, Majors was later let go by Marvel.

Date of “Deadpool & Wolverine”‘s release “Deadpool & Wolverine” is slated to be the only Marvel Studios picture released in 2024 and opens in theatres on July 26.
