Speculation is buzzing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) fandom as reports surface about Karl Urban potentially reprising his role as a variant of Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in the highly anticipated ‘Deadpool 3’.
Best known for his roles in ‘The Boys’ and ‘The Lord of the Rings’, Urban’s rumored involvement adds an exciting dimension to the upcoming film’s casting.
According to Giant Freakin Robot (GFR), a trusted source in entertainment news, Urban is set to join the MCU once again, this time as a different character – a variant of the iconic Wolverine. This rumor has gained traction despite Urban’s previous stint in the MCU as Skurge in ‘Thor: Ragnarok’, demonstrating the flexibility and creative liberties inherent in the superhero genre.
The prospect of Urban embodying Wolverine’s variant character in ‘Deadpool 3’ aligns with recent rumors circulating within the fan community. Just a week prior, industry insider Daniel Richtman hinted at another surprise casting involving Daniel Radcliffe as yet another Wolverine variant. These reports, though unconfirmed by official sources, fuel anticipation and speculation among fans eager to see how the MCU will incorporate the beloved X-Men character into its expanding multiverse.
If these rumors hold true, ‘Deadpool 3’ promises to deliver a multiversal adventure unlike anything seen before in the superhero genre. With Ryan Reynolds reprising his role as the irreverent Deadpool and the confirmed return of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, the film is shaping up to be a star-studded and wildly imaginative addition to the MCU.
