Have you ever regretted turning down a role in your career?
No… but I’ve always wanted to play Wolverine

In 2021, Hugh Jackman rejected the idea of returning to the role he made so iconic. A year later, he announced his return as a character in Deadpool 3 . In an interview with Jakes Takes, the actor revealed that he had not spoken to Kevin Feige.
Let’s be clear – I realized before we were shooting Logan, I thought we had an idea. We knew what it was going to be, didn’t we? And I thought that was it. The fact that I’m entering my final season, which I need to make the most of, has really helped me. He’s still a character close to my heart – but I know it’s over. Say it to whoever you want. Please tell that to Ryan Reynolds. Because he doesn’t believe me, he thinks I’m joking.
While it’ll probably be a while before we see Wolverine on the big screen again, Marvel Studios’ latest movie was Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantomania , and we can still see it in theaters. The studio describes the film as follows: “In the film that officially kicks off Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, superhero partners Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) and Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) return to continue their adventures as Ant Man and Wasp. Together with Hope’s parents Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) and Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer), the family explores the Quantum Realm, interacting with strange new creatures and embarking on an adventure that will push them beyond what they thought was possible. Jonathan Majors joins the adventure as Kang.”
