Deadpool Co-Creator Teases Hugh Jackman's Possible Return as Wolverine Opposite Ryan Reynolds


There is little doubt that people are still holding on to hope that Hugh Jackman would eventually return as Wolverine in a future film. So what are the chances that the mutant will team up with Wade Wilson? Deadpool co-creator Rob Liefeld has teased on the possibility that Jackman will eventually agree to return as Wolverine in the future and it would be opposite Ryan Reynolds.

Liefeld recently spoke to Comicbook.com during the outlet's Quarantine Watch Party of Deadpool. Interestingly, the comic book artist admitted that he still believes that Jackman could come back as Wolverine, albeit not immediately.

"I don't like to speculate on things that can't possibly be, but I'm stubborn enough to believe that as the years go by, as we get more distance, that maybe in ten years, that we'll see [them together]," Liefeld said. "Even though I have been told, by Hugh and by Ryan, that he's moving on, to my face, minds change. Time passes, things change."

Jackman has already stated that he has no intention of reprising his role as Wolverine. Nevertheless, Liefeld strongly believes that the Logan actor might eventually change his mind.

"I am still holding out on the fact that there is still that opportunity, that they will share the screen at some point now that Ryan has found the Deadpool we all intended him to be," Liefeld said.

We can't really blame Liefeld for being so hopeful. After all, the idea of Jackman's Wolverine and Reynolds' Deadpool being in a movie together is a welcome one for fans. For now, it's best not to get your hopes up but also, let's keep our fingers crossed.
