Daniel Radcliffe, a fan-favorite pick for Wolverine in the MCU, sports the iconic claws in a new Marvel fan trailer.
In a new Marvel fan trailer, Daniel Radcliffe debuts as the latest recruit for the role of Wolverine in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), offering a glimpse into how he could embody the character of Logan.
Hugh Jackman is coming back as Wolverine in Deadpool 3, which is expected to come out this summer. However, it seems like Jackman’s return will only happen once. This leaves us wondering who will become the new permanent Wolverine.
Although audiences eagerly anticipate Jackman’s portrayal of Logan donning the iconic Wolverine costume in Deadpool 3, the world remains in suspense regarding the future inclusion of Wolverine in the MCU.
In the interim, KH Studio has unveiled a new fan trailer for The Wolverine, showcasing Radcliffe as a potential successor to Jackman’s character following Logan’s passing in the 2017 film.
The Wolverine trailer seamlessly blends scenes from both X-Men: Days of Future Past and the original 2013 film, The Wolverine.
Additionally, the concept introduces Daniel Radcliffe’s Wolverine engaging in interactions with Ryan Reynolds‘ Deadpool, offering fans an intriguing glimpse into this potential crossover dynamic.
Will Daniel Radcliffe Actually Be Wolverine In The MCU After Hugh Jackman?
He told ComicBook in 2022:
“So many times, people come to me like, ‘hey man, heard the Wolverine news, that’s pretty cool.’ No, I don’t know anything about it. Like, I appreciate that somebody is clearly going like ‘Wolverine’s actually short in the comic books, you should get like a short guy to do it!'”
But I don’t see myself, I don’t see them going from Hugh Jackman to me. But who knows? Prove me wrong, Marvel.”
Later, he said in a Vanity Fair lie detector test:
“No. Yes. I got buff because I am obsessive, and I want to… You’ve seen my parents, they’re like insane fitness people. So that’s just been passed on. But no. No Wolverine. Flattered, but no.”
During a lie detector test, Daniel Radcliffe indicates truthfully that he won’t be portraying Wolverine in Deadpool 3. Therefore, fans shouldn’t expect to see him in the role in the upcoming movie.
