Marvel's Feige didn't want Hugh Jackman to return as Wolverine

As Hugh Jackman is all set to make his return in a titular role to Marvel's Deadpool & Wolverine, MCU's boss Kevin Feige recalls that he was not keen to bring Jackman on board.

Feige said he did not want to ruin the satisfying farewell the actor got in Logan (2017). He told, as reported by Deadline, the Empire that Jackman, “had the greatest ending in history with Logan. That’s not something we should undo.”

The 2017 swansong film gave a conclusion to Wolverine that satisfied both Jackman and his fans.

Jackman, however cleared his mind in a long drive, and told Ryan Reynolds that if he wants him, he will be in for the project.

The film's trailer showed Wade Wilson/Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) seeking the help of a reluctant James Logan Howlett (Hugh Jackman) to save his world.

Deadpool & Wolverine is directed by Shawn Levy, is written by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Teese, Paul Wernick, Zeb Wells and Shawn Levy. The film is backed by Kevin Feige, Ryan Reynolds, Shawn Levy and Lauren Shuler Donner.

The star cast of the film also includes Emma Corrin, Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni and Matthew Macfadyen. That apart, cinematographer George Richmond, editors Shane Reid and Dean Zimmerman, and music composer Rob Simonsen make up the technical crew.

Deadpool & Wolverine is slated to be released on July 26.
