I'm really digging the realistic take on the yellow suit. I think it works well.

Also, I hope there's going to be a scene where he rips the sleeves off. Long sleeved Logan feels wrong πŸ˜‚

[–] TheManIsInsane 9 points 2 years ago

I was thinking the same exact thing. This looks to be based on John Cassaday's redesign from 2004 and that one leaves his forearms bare.

I thought Hugh said he was done. Must have imagined it

[–] winebaths 60 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think the dump truck full of cash convinced him otherwise

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That and maybe not needing to work out and/or dehydrate himself to be buff as hell for shots, if the body-covering yellow suit is anything to go off of.

[–] WaltJRimmer 36 points 2 years ago

If he doesn't have a topless/nude scene with Reynolds touching his chest for comedic effect, I'll be kind of disappointed. But really, I think he's doing this for a mixture of the tremendous Disney money and because he's friends with Reynolds.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He didn’t have to do that in the first place - he just wanted to. Hugh was really small in the first xmen movie and got bigger as they went along.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's because standards changed

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You must not have seen many 80s action movies.

Christopher Reeves was jacked!

I guess they had talked about doing this movie awhile back but it wasn't really possible at the time with everything going on with the rights to movies/characters. They never really thought this would have been possible, but once Marvel took control over everything, it became a possibility and Ryan went to Hugh with the idea. He was a little reticent on doing it because he thought Logan was the perfect ending for character, but they said that it wouldn't alter the timeline of what happened in the movie so he agreed to do it.

I guess Reynolds and Jackman are buddies too which probably made the convincing a lot easier.

That and the dump truck full of cash that @winebaths referenced probably didn't hurt.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Nice ! Thanks for the details

[–] ultimate_question 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My theory is that he's not actually playing Wolverine and him being in this movie is a big gag, like he's actually playing Deadpool's dad or some other character. I don't think any of the official announcements actually said anything other than Hughes Jackman is in it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Hugh Jackman has been kidnapped by Deadpool

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a child who grew up watching 80's and 90's cartoons, specifically the X-Men TV Series. This looks fucking amazing, and I'm here for it.

Alright, I'll come clean, I sang that out loud.

[–] cmbabul 2 points 2 years ago

I sang the following notes and rest of the song out loud

Saturday morning Gambit in a movie(done right) would be sick AF.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago

I can't imagine any other Wolverine than Hugh. It's crazy for how long and how many different universes he has contributed.

[–] FlashZordon 16 points 2 years ago

Oh my god Wolverine's suit exceeds my lofty expectations.

[–] Lordgeoffery 11 points 2 years ago

Hugh Jackman will always and forever be Wolverine. Perfection

[–] NOT_RICK 11 points 2 years ago

Great costume design

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Was that so hard? It looks great.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Looking like ketchup and mustard

What would Hollywood be without sequels...

Frick... You got me there :D

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

and remakes.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Probably about the same, just with less money.

Even got the claw covers on the gloves!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

But why's he got sleeves?

[–] pyromaster55 7 points 2 years ago

I love it. Apparently Jennifer Garner is coming back as Elektra as well.

Pretty excited about this.

Are we sure that’s Ryan Reynolds and not the T-Mobile CEO? 🀨

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Fuck yeah, they got Wolverine in the classic yellow shit. :D

[–] paddirn 1 points 2 years ago

Honestly, not as bad as I thought it would be, though it looks a bit weird around the hands. Maybe there’s some extra stuff in there for the claws, some sort of practical effect?
