The new film of the most beloved anti-hero started filming a few weeks ago and the leaks have not been long in coming. Just yesterday we shared the first images of Ryan Reynolds on set, but the information you will learn today may blow your mind. From CanWeGetSomeToasta medium with a reliable history of reporting on future productions of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, revealed the suit that Wolverine will wear in Deadpool 3.
As you surely know, the presence of Wolverine is one of the biggest novelties of Deadpool 3. Last year, Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds confirmed that the anti-hero will be joined by the X-Men icon. It was, in fact, one of the most important news in the world of entertainment during 2022.
However, it seems that Marvel Studios does not want to miss the opportunity to present Wolverines in an unforgettable way. After all, it is the character’s debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – just like Deadpool.
According to the aforementioned medium, Wolverine will wear in the legendary yellow suit in Deadpool 3. Yes, the one that captivated millions through comics and, of course, in the animated series of the 90s.
If the report is correct, those led by Kevin Feige would be fulfilling a great wish from the fans. Ever since Wolverine first appeared on the big screen in X Men (2000), the public has been waiting for the moment when Hugh Jackman dons such iconic clothing. Sadly, at Fox they never made the dream come true.
Why didn’t Wolverine wear the yellow suit sooner?
During 2020, James Mangolddirector of Wolverine (2013) and Logan (2017), explained the reason Wolverine never wore the yellow suit on the big screen. Apparently, the clothing did not fit the tone of the productions. In addition, they did not want a suit to become a key object to drive the publicity campaign of the films.
“Sorry. He never wore it. We didn’t even do a version of the outfit. Anything related to his character, as I understand it, would prevent him from donning a self-promoted uniform.”
Now, at that time Mangold was very clear that, when Wolverine was relevant again in the cinema, he would surely use the yellow suit. “I’m sure the next incarnation of Wolverine will go there. [vestir ese uniforme]”.
Mangold’s suspicions were not wrong. In 2020, Disney had already closed the purchase of 21st Century Fox after disbursing 71.3 billion dollars. The rights to the X-Men and Deadpool himself therefore became managed by Marvel.
The filmmaker knew perfectly well that the mickey mouse publicity machine uses any nostalgic element that can attract the interest of the audience. For that reason, we shouldn’t be surprised if we see Wolverine’s yellow suit in Deadpool 3. This feature film is the first of the antihero in charge of Marvel Studios.
If the strikes of the writers and actors become an obstacle, Deadpool 3 will be released on May 3, 2024.
