Hugh Jackman will enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe alongside Ryan Reynolds in "Deadpool 3," due out in theaters Sept. 6, 2024.

Deadpool is one of several comic book properties that Disney acquired when it bought 20th Century Fox in 2019.

Jackman's appearance in Deadpool 3 will see him making his debut in the MCU along with the titular Wade Wilson, though it is currently unknown the size that his role in the upcoming film will be. The video showed a montage of Reynolds as he talks about the introspection and process that was going into the creation of the film, as it was important that the character's debut in the MCU was special. The video ends with a rendition of Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" with the word "You" replaced with "Hugh" as the Deadpool logo appears, before it is cut through by three Adamantium claws, followed by the reveal of the September release date.

Hugh Jackman to reprise Wolverine role in next 'Deadpool' film (CNN)

Ryan Reynolds just broke some Hugh-ge news in the movie world. The actor announced on Tuesday that Hugh Jackman will be reprising his role as Wolverine in ...

Deadpool was introduced in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” in 2009, but totally different than the smart-alecky take of the stand-alone movies. Wolverine was killed in the film “Logan,” so Jackman’s appearance will require some “We’re going to ignore lots of history” footwork, but they’re likely to have fun with it – just as they clearly did making the closing logo at the end of Reynold’s video. And terrifying. And I… “Every ‘Deadpool’ needs to stand out and stand apart. Adding that he wanted to make Deadpool’s first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (as this is the first “Deadpool” film to be produced following Disney’s purchase of 20th Century Fox) “special,” Reynolds said he sought out to “stay true to the character, find new depth, motivation, meaning.”

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine Brings Added Value To Ryan Reynolds ... (Forbes)

The third 'merc with the mouth' adventure, which will (at least somewhat) be part of the MCU, arrives 6.5 years after Deadpool 2.

Deadpool 2 earned $318 million domestic and $734 million worldwide on a $110 million budget, and an additional $6 million domestic and $45 million overseas (including $24 million in China) from the PG-13 Once Upon A Deadpool cut. I am hopeful that all parties will be smart enough to let Deadpool 3 stand on its own without resting on multiverse cameos or franchise-specific nostalgia (just as Multiverse of Madness was 90% ‘just’ a Doctor Strange sequel). It gives those indifferent to a third Deadpool a reason to care or be curious. I do wonder if the deal for Jackman involves a reigniting of the Greatest Showman IP, but bringing Jackman into Deadpool 3 is the very definition of an added value element. More importantly, they still want Logan to have monetizable value as ‘Wolverine’s last ride.’ Whether multiverse-hopping or non-continuity in-jokes, I’m guessing the Logan we meet in Deadpool 3 will either be an alternate universe version (maybe wearing the comics-accurate yellow spandex) or will merely exist between the continuities of Days of Future Past and Logan. Ryan Reynolds just dropped word, via an amusing self-mocking video, that A) Deadpool 3 (or whatever they end up calling it) will be opening theatrically on September 6, 2024 and B) will feature Hugh Jackman reprising as Wolverine.

'Logan' Director James Mangold Tells People to “Chill” After ... (Collider.com)

Hugh Jackman will star alongside Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool 3, which is set to premiere on September 6, 2024 and James Mangold reacted to the news.

The filmmaker has worked with Reynolds on Free Guy and The Adam Project, and with Jackman on the underrated Real Steel. Jackman will soon be seen in the awards contender The Son. The film ended with a shot of his grave. The only bright idea he had was the one he was going to execute. The latter film, designed as a Western drama in the vein of The Last of Us and Children of Men, became an instant hit, grossing over $600 million worldwide and scoring Jackman the best reviews of his superhero film career. Mangold directed Jackman in two solo Wolverine movies — 2013’s moderately well-received The Wolverine, and its Academy Award-nominated 2017 follow-up [Logan](https://collider.com/tag/logan/).

The “Deadpool” star first appeared as the character in 2009’s widely panned “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” which was the first “X-Men” spinoff to focus on Jackman’s character. So it’s unclear how he’ll appear in “Deadpool 3.” But the character is best known for repeatedly breaking the fourth wall — on film and in the comics — and as Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige recently told Variety, [“Anything’s possible in the multiverse.”](https://variety.com/2022/film/news/elizabeth-olsen-wanda-return-marvel-alive-marvel-kevin-feige-1235384359/) The last time X-Men fans saw Jackman as Wolverine was in 2016’s R-rated “Logan,” directed by James Mangold.

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine will be in 'Deadpool 3.' Here's why that's ... (The Washington Post)

Ryan Reynolds has some big news: His Deadpool is not the only X-Man set to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Wolverine is coming with him.

21 is any indication, this Marvel team-up is in the right hands. There are plenty of options to justify Jackman’s Wolverine now walking in the land of the Avengers. Is that the loophole that will bring Jackman to the MCU? By the time “Deadpool 2” came along in 2018, Reynolds had separated himself from an X-Men movie franchise that was withering in the shadows of what Marvel Studios was accomplishing with the Avengers. This is the multiverse era at Marvel Studios right now, where alternate universes and alternate versions of heroes is a thing. Disney’s Marvel Studios had become the dominant creator of movies based on Marvel comics characters, and Reynolds’s “Deadpool” movies over at Fox were the only thing that could stand up to their might. Let’s not forget that in 2018’s “Deadpool 2,” a post-credits scene featured Deadpool getting his hands on time travel technology. Jackman’s Wolverine died very dramatically and in R-rated fashion in James Mangold’s “Logan,” a movie meant to be a swan song for a beloved portrayal of one of the most popular comic book characters ever. In a social media video Tuesday, Reynolds made the announcement of Jackman’s return to the X-Men movie world — which was especially shocking considering the character had died in 2017’s “Logan.” Reynolds proclaims a case of extreme writers block while preparing for “Deadpool 3,” which is set to arrive in theaters Sept. He realizes he’s now in the superhero movie big leagues at Marvel Studios, and maybe not quite ready for the moment, but he says he did have one idea. He then spun off into his own “Deadpool” movie in 2016, creating a bloody and R-rated corner of superhero cinema, which was unheard of at the time. Yes, Reynolds always has a way of throwing in songs you’d never expect to hear in a superhero setting.

The MCU Latest: Hugh Jackman Returns as Wolverine in 'Deadpool ... (GQ Magazine)

Meanwhile 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' is confirmed to have a 2 hour 41 minute-runtime, making it the longest MCU film after 'Endgame.'

[James Mangold posted](https://twitter.com/mang0ld/status/1574907829239939072) a cheeky GIF of Wolverine being killed in his movie, which many interpreted as a sign of frustration over the character’s return, though he clarified his stance in a [follow-up tweet](https://twitter.com/mang0ld/status/1574932521875173377). The Deadpool 3 news comes the same day as a major departure from another Marvel project. [video uploaded to his Twitter](https://twitter.com/VancityReynolds/status/1574865217141481477?s=20&t=pOZagP2cNBTQmwGFR1jPGg) shows Reynolds explaining that he had to miss the D23 Disney expo because he was too intensely focused on developing the third Deadpool film, which will be the character’s monumental first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In true Reynolds fashion, the video is set up as something emotional and triumphant—quintessential superhero stuff (well, barring him reading a Deadpool comic on what seems to be the toilet)—only for him to reveal that when it comes to new ideas for the franchise, he’s completely gassed. (The video also serves as a release date announcement: September 6, 2024.) [In a second video](https://twitter.com/VancityReynolds/status/1575101936700772355?s=20&t=pOZagP2cNBTQmwGFR1jPGg), the two actors poked fun at questions about the in-universe logistics of the X-Men hero’s return, since Wolverine died in 2017’s Logan. But that film featured a much different version of Deadpool, one lacking the character's signature costume and whose mouth was eventually sewn shut, cutting off his endless stream of quippy, fourth-wall-breaking wisecracks.

Eagle-eyed viewers have pointed out that the clips seemed to be filmed at a very familiar location.
