Hugh Jackman's recent enigmatic remarks about his role in Deadpool 3 have fans waiting for the movie even more, just when they thought it wasn't even possible.

In a recent interview with the French magazine Le Parisien Jackman let it slip that he will have "a double role" in the highly anticipated movie, currently expected to arrive on November 8, 2024.

Nothing else is revealed at this point, but this piece of information, however small, is having the fans' grey cells working full time.

Proceed further on your own risk as some spoilers to Logan and Deadpool 2 are awaiting ahead, you've been warned!

So let's give it a thought, shall we?

We know Hugh Jackman 's iconic character Wolverine dies a hero death in Logan. So how's it even possible for him to return to his staple role in the upcoming Deadpool 3?

Considering the wonderfully meta nature and everything's-possible attitude of the Deadpool movies, there are quite a few ways to pull this off.

First of all, Logan takes place in 2029 whereas Deadpool 3 will presumably have an earlier setting. That's not to mention the ending of Deadpool 2 which suggested there might be more time-jumps in the future movies.

Moreover, let's not forget we live in the Multiverse era now. With Deadpool now part of MCU, versions of Wolverine might be not the only one antic the new movie will pull. Safe to say that's for the future to show.

Will this be a case of Wolverine clone, as in Logan? An X-Men version of Wolverine we've known and loved for more than 20 years?

A multiversal variant of Wolverine that is a villain? Something or someone else entirely? There are plenty of possibilities which makes it so fun to speculate.

There was even a theory making its rounds among the fans about the whole "Deadpool kills the FOX universe" thing. That might have Wolverine (some version of him) hunt Deadpool down to stop it.

That is of course if there will even be some leaping to FOX universe performed by characters.

Oh, the paths the fans' imagination takes sometimes. And as we sadly can't time-jump to the premiere we'll have to wait for the new and undoubtedly weird and fun news on the issue.
