Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are currently performing a dance. The two hollywood stars celebrate something that the advertising industry likes to call PR ping pong referred to as. One of the two gives a high-profile template via social media, the other responds accordingly. We already experienced this when the supposed name of Deadpool 3’s official title was chosen. Actually, the Australian actor had nothing to do with any of this. Hugh Jackman now expressed what finally made him return to this Hollywood superhero circus.
Hugh Jackman postpones retirement as a superhero
Actually, 2017 should definitely be over. The story seemed both narrative and IRL (“in real life”) wolverines, the most famous and popular hero of the X-Men, told. Hugh Jackman literally hung up his infamous adamantium blades and enjoyed the quiet retirement of being a former Marvel superhero. But things turned out differently.
In an interview, the Australian Hollywood star recently revealed why he changed his mind. Despite being asked time and time again by fans, film producers and Ryan Reynolds himself if he would consider returning as Wolverine, he was completely indifferent. In particular, the friendly producer and leading actor was apparently very pushy in this endeavor. “He asked every 5 seconds”.
That’s why Hugh Jackman decided to return as Wolverine
The reason why the 53-year-old Australian changed his mind is very simple and completely understandable. Well, “I’m going to punch Ryan Reynolds in the face every single day,” he clarifies in the interview. Here we are again PR ping pong. A corresponding reaction from Deadpool aka Ryan Reynolds should only be a matter of time.
By the way, Deadpool 3 is supposed to be released on November 06, 2024 in Germany start. Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds are expected to engage in both verbal and physical engagement during the planned filming. Until then, apparently, the numerous fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe can continue to look forward to a heated PR battle between the two main actors.
