The cast of the next
Wolverine movie (which will feature Hugh Jackman's final appearance as the clawed mutant) has been steadily growing over the past couple of months, but other than the returning Patrick Stewart, we have no idea who everyone from Boyd Holbrook to Richard E. Grant are playing. However, thanks to
Nerdist, we now know that Logan is going to square off with the Reavers.
For those of you unfamiliar with the team, they're a group of cyborgs (including the likes of Lady Deathstrike and Skullbuster) that are best known for their criminal activity, and their hatred of mutants. The site goes on to speculate that it could be Grant who is playing their leader, Donald Pierce. Beyond that, they throw out some theories that both the Hellfire Club or Essex Corp. could be the "global enterprise" backing them, but nothing beyond the fact that Wolverine will fight the Reavers appears to be concrete information as of right now. Regardless, this is an interesting choice of villains.
The site also mentions that
"we’ve heard small rumblings that Liev Schreiber might be returning as Sabretooth," so who knows how much he'll end up being involved here! What do you think?
