Marsden’s Cyclops was criminally underused in the 2000s X-Men trilogy (particularly The Last Stand) and Deadpool & Wolverine can take a jab at Fox for wasting such a pivotal character. The film may even give a scene-stealing moment that fans will be happy with. It remains to be seen whether the speculations turn out to be true when the film hits theatres next week.
Ryan Reynolds Will Forever Remember Hugh Jackman’s Humility On X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman first met on the set of 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Jackman was already a superstar at the time having starred in highly successful X-Men films. However, the actor’s humility and grace in the film’s production blew away Reynolds.
In an interview with The New York Times, the Deadpool star revealed that Jackman had a very optimistic and friendly attitude on set. This changed Reynolds’ attitude toward the industry and people, reminding him that one can be highly successful in life while also being kind and productive. He said,
Hugh probably had the biggest imprint on me because one of my earlier jobs was to play Deadpool in his movie, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and I will never forget seeing what it looked like to lead and produce a movie with humility and a level of graciousness that I frankly had never seen in this business before.
It really was an antidote to cynicism for me at the time — I remember thinking, ‘Oh, you can be successful and content and really good at what you do, and you don’t have to be some tortured schmuck who’s willfully hurting themselves to find some kind of vaporous artistic truth’.
The duo have developed a great friendship over the years and have now reunited for Deadpool & Wolverine. The film will also star Emma Corrin, Matthew Macfadyen, Leslie Uggams, Rob Delaney, Morena Baccarin, and many others.
Deadpool & Wolverine will hit theaters on July 26, 2026.
