Hugh Jackman confirms Deadpool 3 will take place before Logan. 'I did tell him that it took place before [Logan], so I wasn’t gonna screw with the claws popping out of the grave.'
Ahead of production start for Shawn Levy and Ryan Reynolds' upcoming Marvel Studios film, Hugh Jackman reveals Deadpool 3's Wolverine timeline, specifically how it relates to Logan. In 2017, Jackman wrapped up his stint as Wolverine in Fox's X-Men franchise via James Mangold's Logan.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Jackman had been consistent with his stance on the matter until August 2022 when it was announced that he was reprising Wolverine on Deadpool 3. Still, questions about how Wolverine's upcoming MCU outing will affect the events Logan, including whether it will undo the mutant's death. In a new interview with The Empire Film Podcast, however, Jackman effectively resolves the mystery by revealing Deadpool 3's Wolverine timeline.
"He was actually really cool about it. I did tell him that it took place before our movie, so I wasn’t gonna screw with the claws popping out of the grave. So he was relieved by that, and he totally got it. He thought it was a good idea. None of us wanted to screw with that. I was really proud of that movie and what we did, and it felt perfect. And actually, for five years, I was really, honestly, I can tell you, I was kind of a hard done, I was like, this was it.
In a separate interview, Levy also teased Wolverine's Deadpool 3 role, pointing out the incredible chemistry between Reynolds and Jackman. This results in new ideas for the movie's screenplay which he says would be fun for the audience to see when the movie finally comes out. As a partnership that took years in the making, hearing Levy and Jackman's updates is extremely exciting.
As beloved and critically acclaimed as Logan is, it makes sense that Levy, Reynolds, and Marvel Studios are setting Deadpool 3 before its events. Perhaps, Wolverine's experience with the Merc-With-A-Mouth can even explain some of the choices he made in his swan song film, especially since the upcoming threequel is already confirmed to involve time travel.
