Does he return one last time as Wolverine? - Deadpool & Wolverine shatters Marvel’s box office with $1.33B global haul
Deadpool & Wolverine has smashed box office records, becoming Marvel’s highest-grossing film ever. The movie earned $1.33 billion worldwide, far surpassing previous franchise highs. Its success has reignited speculation about Hugh Jackman’s future as Wolverine—especially with another major Marvel project, Avengers: Doomsday, on the horizon.
Hugh Jackman last portrayed Wolverine in 2017’s Logan, a role many believed was his final outing. Yet he returned for Deadpool & Wolverine after persistent persuasion from Ryan Reynolds and the film’s creative team. The actor’s comeback delighted fans, and his performance contributed to the movie’s record-breaking run.
While Deadpool & Wolverine has set a new financial benchmark for Marvel, attention now turns to Avengers: Doomsday. Jackman’s potential return remains unconfirmed, but his recent comments and the Russos’ track record keep fans guessing. The film’s production team has yet to address the rumors directly.
