Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine Reportedly Returning For AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY

There’s a good chance that we will get to see Hugh Jackman pop his Wolverine claws again in Avengers: Doomsday.

While it’s fairly obviously to me that Jackman will return, inside scooper @MyTimeToShineHello, is saying: “Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine will return in ‘AVENGERS DOOMSDAY.’”

The scoop comes ahead of any official confirmation from Marvel Studios, but with Deadpool & Wolverine kicking open the multiversal floodgates this summer, Jackman’s return in Avengers: Doomsday makes a whole lot of sense, even if it’s not official (yet).

You can also expect Ryan Reynolds return as Deadpool, because those two are like two-peas in a pod, and together thwy will make Marvel and Disney a lot of money!

A lot of fan thought Jackman would be confirmed during the Avengers: Doomsday cast reveal, which listed 27 confirmed actors. But several other familiar faces from Fox’s X-Men universe did make the first round, including Patrick Stewart (Professor X), Ian McKellen (Magneto), Kelsey Grammer (Beast), Rebecca Romijn (Mystique), James Marsden (Cyclops), Alan Cumming (Nightcrawler), and Channing Tatum (Gambit).

There is more casting for Avengers: Doomsday coming. We’ll just have to wait and see whose names are going to pop up in the second round, which I assume will come at Comic-Con later this summer.

With characters from the Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four, and X-Men all converging in Doomsday, there’s still a lot left to reveal. Regardless, it’s not hard to image Deadpool and Wolverine and a bunch of other Marvel character rushing Castle Doom to take down Doctor Doom.

Joe and Anthony Russo are directing the film and Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on May 1, 2026, with Avengers: Secret Wars scheduled to arrive on May 7, 2027.
