Deadpool & Wolverine Director Shawn Levy Details How Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds Embody Marvel Heroes

As a die-hard Marvel fan, I cannot contain my excitement for the upcoming “Deadpool & Wolverine” movie. The prospect of seeing Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman finally share the screen as these iconic characters is truly a dream come true. The hype surrounding this film is palpable, with impressive box office predictions and potential records being broken.


The highly anticipated film “Deadpool and Wolverine” is almost here, with just a few days left before its theater debut. Marvel enthusiasts are buzzing with anticipation as they prepare to witness Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman share the screen for the first time in a meaningful way. This long-awaited collaboration is expected to deliver strong box office numbers and potentially set a new record for the best opening weekend ever for an R-rated film. In celebration of the upcoming release, ComicBook had an exclusive interview with Jackman, Reynolds, and director Shawn Levy. During their conversation, Levy spoke about how perfectly the actors embody their respective Marvel characters.

As a gamer, I can relate to the question about how much of the actors have become their iconic characters like Wolverine and Deadpool. When Brandon Davis from ComicBook brought this up, I pondered and answered, “That’s an intriguing query.” In my opinion, there are numerous actors who have donned the capes and masks of Superman, Batman, Spiderman, and we have two exceptional ones: Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. They’ve truly embodied these characters; it’s hard to picture anyone else in those roles.

“These men are unique in their own ways. For Ryan, his quick wit and fast thinking, as portrayed by Ryan Reynolds, is truly extraordinary and perfectly fits the ‘Merc with the Mouth’ character. Hugh Jackman, on the other hand, has a different kind of depth. Despite his gentle and kind demeanor, he harbors a hidden darkness within him.”

“If you keep something hidden for a extended period,” Reynolds quipped. “Once it’s revealed, it’s unleashed fully,” Levy added.

“Reynolds described a terrifying moment: Hugh charging towards him with claws unsheathed at high speed.”

“Instead of requiring therapy, Jackman quipped, you have a character like this one. ‘That’s the gem from the press conference,’ Levy added.”
