Logan Co-Writer Says Deadpool & Wolverine Opening Scene Was a “Huge Compliment”
The pairing of Deadpool and Wolverine has delivered numerous unexpected moments in cinemas worldwide, earning over $1 billion and spawning a multitude of memes. The movie’s unconventional humor is evident right from the start, as Wade Wilson/Deadpool unearths the remains of Logan Howlett/Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) to demonstrate that he miraculously survived the somber ending of 2017’s Logan. However, upon discovery, it becomes clear that Logan has indeed perished, and his Adamantium bones are utilized for combat against a horde of TVA agents during the film’s opening credits. In an interview with IGN, screenwriter and co-writer of Logan, Michael Green, shared his response to Deadpool & Wolverine’s tribute, expressing that he was in no way offended by the movie’s playful subversion of the ending of his film.
