Who should be the next Wolverine?
The Marvel Cinematic Universe's (MCU's) greatest achievement in adapting Spider-Man to the big screen was providing a version that drew from multiple comic book incarnations that had not previously been filmed. Therefore, the Spider-Man played by Tom Holland was very different from those played by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
Whoever succeeds Hugh Jackman as Wolverine (when the character eventually joins the MCU), their interpretation of the character should be very different from Jackmen's. The only way to compete with Jackman, who has become a legend in part, is to make this version of the character distinct from his.
Colin McCormick revised the following on September 8, 2022. As further evidence of the mutants' impending arrival in the MCU emerges, viewers can't help but wonder which of their favorite mutants will make an appearance. To find Hugh Jackman's worthy successor in the role of Wolverine is the most challenging casting decision that remains. There have been several suggestions for who could play the legendary X-Men character, but a few stand out as intriguing options.
Keeso, Jared
Here we see Jared Keeso indicating the direction of Letterkenny. Some viewers hope the new Wolverine will be more respectful of his Canadian heritage. For this reason, it would be exciting to see Canadian actor Jared Keeso take on the part.
Here Are 9 Memes That Capture Wolverine's Essence Keeso is the brains behind and star of the successful Canadian comedy series Letterkenny and its offshoot, Shores. He's perfect for the part of the rough-and-tumble tough guy who can yet crack a joke or two.
Said Anthony Starr. In the premiere episode of Season 3, we meet Homelander, Maeve, and Starlight from The Boys. Others would prefer to see another Australian actor take over Hugh Jackman's role as Wolverine. As the wicked Homelander on The Boys, Anthony Starr is quickly rising in popularity as a TV actor. He's proven he can portray a villainous superhero, but it's easy to picture him as a good guy like Wolverine. Starr's ability to portray anti-heroes was on display in the series Banshee.
Dr. Zahn McClarnon
In Dark Winds, Zahn McClarnon wears a police uniform and raises his head. One concept for the new Wolverine involves recasting the character as a member of Canada's Indigenous community. It could be an intriguing method to give the character a fresh feel and go into his history in novel ways.
As Echo's dad in Hawkeye, Zahn McClarnon made a cameo in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Given Marvel's record of recasting performers, he would be an excellent choice for Wolverine. He can command attention with just a few carefully chosen words.
To the best of my knowledge, Logan Marshall-Green Screaming in Upgrade, Logan Marshall-Green It seems like Logan Marshall-Green is always only one role away from breaking out into the big time, but he hasn't found it yet. He is no stranger to the big screen, having played both leading parts (in horror films like Upgrade and The Invitation) and supporting ones (including a brief appearance as the original Shocker in Spider-Man: Homecoming).
Marshall-Green possesses a tough-guy charisma that may make him a great Wolverine. If the MCU opts to maintain Wolverine on a team rather than as a solo character, he might easily blend in.
Wes Goggins Walton
Similarly, Walton Goggins has already appeared in the MCU as the villain Sonny Burch in Ant-Man and the Wasp, but he was shamefully underutilized. However, he possesses the ideal wild man persona to serve Wolverine well.
Ranker presents the ten worst events in Wolverine's life. In Justified, he played a charming yet deadly character, and in The Righteous Gemstones, he displayed his comedy chops. Many people who love the character of Wolverine would be pleased to see an actor with similar hair and height.
In the role of Daniel Radcliffe A Trailer for "Guns Akimbo," Starring Daniel Radcliffe With Weapons Instead of Hands Fans have long speculated that Daniel Radcliffe would make a great Wolverine due to his grizzled portrayal in the underrated survival film Jungle and his uncontrollable wrath in the more recent Guns Akimbo.
Radcliffe is an actor who will always be identified with his role as Harry Potter. However, taking on another iconic character like Wolverine may show audiences a different side of Radcliffe and open doors to new creative opportunities.
In this case, Brad Pitt.
In the early stages of Deadpool 2's production, Brad Pitt was being considered for the part of Cable. In the end, he had a brief cameo as the Vanisher, but he could have easily played another grizzled, ass-kicking X-Man.
In Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, directed by Quentin Tarantino, Pitt won an Academy Award for portraying a ruthless, emotionless badass. Pitt would be a good choice to play an older Wolverine if Marvel decides to cast one after Logan's success.
Ben Affleck is a possible out-of-the-box pick. With his current commitment to the Batman character in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), Affleck is unlikely to embark on any other comic book roles. However, Affleck's more sinister turns in films like Gone Girl and The Town indicate that he could make a fantastic Wolverine.
Batfleck's wrath was the best part of the character, whether displayed openly in his ruthless aggressiveness as the Bat or latently in Bruce Wayne's more subdued parts. You may bring that struggle with you as you play Wolverine.
Theroux, Justin
A teary-eyed Justin Theroux from the show Leftovers Portraying Wolverine's inner struggle is a crucial component of the role. This demands the actor to have a strong grasp of non-verbal cues, which can be difficult to master.
According to Ranker, these are the ten worst things Wolverine has ever done. But as his roles in David Lynch's surrealist flicks Mulholland Drive and Inland Empire demonstrate, Justin Theroux is fantastic in such roles.
In the words of Joel Edgerton, For It Comes At Night, Joel Edgerton acts in the shadows. In recent years, Joel Edgerton has risen to prominence as one of the most accomplished performers of our time. He may easily achieve the Wolverine look by growing out his beard.
Moreover, his captivating turns in recent hits like It Comes at Night, The Gift, Warrior, Loving, and Black Mass have demonstrated that he can evoke the whole gamut of weathered emotions necessary to play Wolverine.
