DEADPOOL 3 Photo On Hugh Jackman's Camera Roll May Confirm Plans For Comic-Accurate Change To Wolverine

We've seen a lot of Wolverine's suit in set photos for Deadpool 3, but an image inadvertently shared by Hugh Jackman may confirm plans to make a big change to the clawed mutant's appearance on screen.

To beat the paparazzi to the punch, Marvel Studios shared a first look at the Merc with the Mouth and Wolverine suited up in Deadpool 3 when cameras were rolling last year. Since then, we've seen a fair bit of the duo on set together. 

You shouldn't need us to tell you that both characters look like they've stepped straight off the page, something which has been cause for celebration among Logan's sizeable fanbase. The character has never worn a comic-accurate costume on screen, with the closest we've come to seeing that being a deleted scene from The Wolverine (and even then, he just looked at it).

The only real issue for fans is the fact Hugh Jackman's clawed mutant is wearing a costume with sleeves. That's never been the case on the page and, as great as the suit looks, they stick out like a sore thumb. 

There have been rumblings online that it's to protect the actor's arms from being exposed to the elements for too long due to his previous battle with skin cancer. Last month, however, one of social media's many scoopers claimed the sleeves will eventually be torn off. 

Today's, that's possibly been confirmed by a photo spotted on Jackman's camera roll. The actor shared a screenshot on X seemingly without realising what he'd done and, while it's blurry, a shot of the actor hugging co-star Ryan Reynolds shows him suited up without the sleeves. He also has a slightly less stylised version of Wolverine's gloves on.

Is this a cause for celebration? It depends on how much you care, but we'd say Jackman's Wolverine now looks even more badass. Take a closer look below and let us know what you think in the comments section.

Alongside Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, Deadpool franchise vets Karan Soni (Dopinder), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al), Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), Stefan Kapicic (Colossus), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead), Shioli Kutsuna (Yukio), and Rob Delaney (Peter) are all confirmed to return in Deadpool 3.

Emma Corrin is expected to play Cassandra Nova, while Matthew Macfadyen will likely take on the role of a TVA agent named Paradox. The trades have confirmed that Jennifer Garner will reprise her role as Elektra, with Wesley Snipes, James Marsden, Famke Janssen, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Dafne Keen, and even singer Taylor Swift among those rumoured to make cameo appearances in this Multiversal adventure. 

Deadpool 3 is set to be released in theaters on July 26, 2024.

@bobevanz - it’s ok if it doesn’t matter to you. It’s just little things like that that fans of the comics like and it makes us enjoy the visual look of the character just a little bit more. Does it ruin or make the movie better? Most likely not.

Dude, it’s Hughe FUGGIN Jackman… the sleeves are coming off, the shirts coming off, pants will most likely get torn down to his tighty blueys. Dude gets paid to make women wet and men feel insecure… and you just know he has a contract that says his naked butt needs at least 1 minute of screen time.

@slickrickdesigns - I remember HJ posted a video of him lifting 400lbs during his workout/training for this movie. IDK if there's an eventual recasting for his role when we get the X-Men movie(s). But, HJ works hard, and with mad dedication to his Wolvy role.

@TheloniousJay - he’s the original Marvel Studios Super Soldier Steroids, I mean serum user and set the standard for buffness for the MCU.

I do think this makes more sense. It seems weird a suit like this wouldn't be made with sleeves. Especially since previous versions of this incarnations costumes have had sleeves. It makes sense he'd start with them, then just lose them in a fight.

Has no one noticed how a majority of the suits in the MCU are actually vest?

@HammerLegFoot - no one but you. You're the only one. Of the millions of people who have watched the MCU films, many of them multiple times, some of them MANY times, you are the one and only person to have made that observation.

Gotta give it to Jackman, the guy played the role for over 25 years now and always dedicated his body to it. Despite health scares and obviously being tired of the workout.

Many actors are allegedly assholes and he might be one of them (I don't know) but the guy has put a lot more work into this role than anyone else in theirs. Huge props.

@Blergh - By almost all accounts Hugh Jackman is one of the nicest people working in Hollywood, obviously you never know for definite but he definitely has a good reputation and I think his dedication particularly to this role is a huge part of that!

Prefer jackman kept sleeves on for his health condition of cancer if he didn’t have this problem he would have gone sleeveless from start maybe

You keep saying the sleeves "stick out like a sore thumb" and I'm starting to wonder if you know what that saying even means because they absolutely don't, they're actually a very minor change. If they were bright red then yeah, you'd be right.
