Hugh Jackman’s Latest Post Has Fans Convinced Wolverine Is in Avengers: Doomsday

Fans of Marvel are speculating that Hugh Jackman will reprise his role as Wolverine in “Avengers: Doomsday”, based on his recent Instagram post showing him working out at the gym. In the video, Jackman is seen lifting weights under a trainer’s guidance, finishing an exercise with a grunt of “Ouch” before the trainer cheers. The lack of a caption in the post has sparked discussion about the purpose behind this intense workout session. Scanning through the comments section, it appears that fans are convinced they have uncovered some hidden meaning.

This evidence confirms he’ll appear in either ‘Doomsday’ or ‘Secret Wars,’ or maybe even both, according to one comment. Other fans hinted at ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ by suggesting Jackman should continue playing the beloved mutant until he turns 90. It seems many believe this indicates Jackman is preparing for a comeback in the Marvel universe. Here’s the actor’s recent post below:

After apparently retiring from the Wolverine role following 2017’s “Logan”, Jackman returned for this past summer’s “Deadpool & Wolverine,” partnering with Ryan Reynolds in the box office smash. While “Deadpool & Wolverine” garnered favorable reviews and earned over $1 billion globally, the future of both main characters is uncertain. As of now, Marvel Studios has not revealed when Deadpool or Wolverine will reappear. Reynolds is said to be working on a new project that would feature Deadpool teaming up with X-Men members.

Hugh Jackman Has Surprising Answer About an Avengers: Doomsday Appearance

In the upcoming movie titled “Avengers: Doomsday,” which is now being made, we see some of Hugh Jackman’s former co-stars from the X-Men series making a comeback. As of now, there are 27 actors confirmed for this film, including Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, James Marsden, Alan Cumming, and Rebecca Romijn, who will be reprising their iconic roles from the X-Men franchise. Additionally, Channing Tatum, whose character Gambit was first introduced in “Deadpool & Wolverine,” is also part of this star-studded cast.

It’s plausible that Hugh Jackman is simply maintaining his physique for personal wellness, but it’s hard not to notice the similarities with the character Doomsday. Since Doomsday demands a muscular build that suits Jackman, and Marvel has hinted at more Doomsday casting revelations, fans have been linking the dots. Given that Wolverine is a role that Jackman has previously played, and considering the MCU’s interest in Doomsday who has ties to X-Men, it wouldn’t be unexpected if Wolverine reappears, even if he portrays a different version from Deadpool & Wolverine. With many details about the film being secretive, Marvel Cinematic Universe fans have been guessing for quite some time about which other characters might appear. Given that Jackman’s Wolverine has already been incorporated into the MCU, he’s one of the top contenders viewers have been discussing.

Speculation about Jackman’s involvement in “Doomsday” is likely to continue until Marvel officially unveils the rest of the film’s extensive cast. Unfortunately, we don’t know when that might occur. Typically, Marvel Studios would use a panel at San Diego Comic-Con for such announcements, but they won’t be attending this year. Instead, we might hear about more cast members once “Doomsday” finishes filming and Marvel celebrates the event with another livestream of chairs (the previous one set records). Until then, fans eagerly await confirmation of Jackman in the “Doomsday” cast.
