As a seasoned gamer and movie enthusiast who has spent countless hours immersed in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), I can confidently say that the upcoming film, Deadpool & Wolverine, is shaping up to be a game-changer. The news of Disney’s aggressive Oscar campaign for Hugh Jackman, particularly in the Best Supporting Actor category, has me more than just a little excited.
The duo of Deadpool and Wolverine is making a strong push towards Oscar contention, with a fresh effort aimed at securing a nomination for lead actor Hugh Jackman. These two characters are set to vie in the typical Oscar categories where Marvel films usually compete (technical aspects such as art direction, sound, editing, costume design, and visual effects), but aiming for a major acting category is definitely generating buzz. Disney, known for their smart strategies in Oscar campaigns, is spearheading this effort.
According to Variety, Disney is planning to put Hugh Jackman in contention for Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars, as well as other award shows like the Golden Globes, SAG Awards, and Critics Choice Awards. On the other hand, Disney seems to be focusing more on getting Ryan Reynolds into the Best Actor category, particularly at the Golden Globes and its “Best Actor (Comedy or Musical)” section. Preliminary signs suggest that Deadpool and Wolverine will strive to secure a place in the various comedy or musical categories at the Globes.
Hugh Jackman has garnered four Golden Globe nominations (one win) and a single Oscar nod during his acting career. His most significant recognition during awards season came from Tom Hooper’s 2013 adaptation of Les Mis?rables, where he secured an Oscar nomination and won a Golden Globe. Nevertheless, fans often felt that Jackman was overlooked for other performances, such as his gripping role in Denis Villeneuve’s groundbreaking thriller Prisoners and James Mangold’s poignant X-Men film finale, Logan.
As a die-hard comic book movie enthusiast, I firmly believe that “Deadpool & Wolverine” deserved more recognition than it received at the Oscars. Hugh Jackman’s portrayal of Wolverine in this film was not just a repetition of his past roles, but a poignant exploration of a character who, after years of playing the X-Men’s resident mutant, is weary and tormented by his past failures until he is called upon by Deadpool for a heroic mission.
Marvel Studios almost secured its initial significant acting Academy Award with Angela Bassett’s Best Supporting Actress nomination for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Should Jackman manage to win the award, he would undeniably become the epitome of an X-Man.
The digital version of Deadpool & Wolverine becomes available for streaming on platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV+ from October 1st. On the other hand, you can purchase the 4K Blu-ray and DVD versions starting October 22nd.
