Deadpool & Wolverine Confirms One A-List Marvel Hero Is Definitely Dead

Deadpool & Wolverine Confirms One A-List Marvel Hero Is Definitely Dead

As a long-time fan of both Deadpool and Wolverine, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions as I watch “Deadpool & Wolverine.” The opening scene where Deadpool unearths Wolverine’s bones is a stark reminder of the end of an era, as we bid farewell to Hugh Jackman’s iconic portrayal of the clawed mutant.


Between Ryan Reynolds’ humorous quips and the intricate collapsing of the Marvel 20th Century Fox universe, “Deadpool & Wolverine” offers much to dissect in this engaging addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Firstly, it is essential to establish which version of Wolverine (portrayed by Hugh Jackman) appears in this film, following his departure at the end of “Logan” in 2017. To put it simply, the movie swiftly confirms that the aforementioned Logan has indeed met his demise – and even incorporates a dance number using his skeleton as a macabre prop.

In an exceptional opening scene for a Deadpool film, we meet up with Wade (Reynolds) once more. He unearths Logan’s bones, who was last depicted being interred by X-23 (Dafne Keen), in a previous farewell ceremony. Disregarding the sanctity of the dead, Wade brandishes Logan’s skeleton aloft with an air of nonchalance. The somber and melancholic Logan from the past, who drove a limo and got emotional over “Shane” references, has met his end. However, the Secret Wars may have other plans and alter this outcome.

Could Old Man Logan be brought back from death in Secret Wars?

Although Hugh Jackman’s return as Wolverine in future MCU films is uncertain, it’s possible that the Logan character from “Logan” could be resurrected. In “Deadpool & Wolverine,” the TVA reveals the ability to rewind time. Why not use this power to prevent the woods battle from James Mangold’s film and keep the original Wolverine alive? It’s worth mentioning that in the comics, multiple Wolverines have existed at once, causing chaos wherever they went. This duo of immortals could potentially play a larger role in whatever plans Kevin Feige has in store.

Could Wolverine encounter the one who has been deceased for the last seven years and is now allegedly revived, leading to more destruction with his claws? This scenario wouldn’t be a challenge for Jackman since he has portrayed multiple versions of Wolverine throughout the films, including acting against himself as X-24 in “Logan.” With whispers of Wolverine featuring in “Avengers: Secret Wars,” it’s possible that Jackman may return to the role earlier than anticipated.
