Jackman’s return as the adamantium-clawed mutant comes as a surprise to some, especially after a March 26 report from Popverse indicated that Wolverine was absent from the Avengers: Doomsday cast reveal during a lengthy Marvel Studios livestream. The report had left fans questioning whether Jackman’s time in the MCU was over after his brief but memorable stint in the R-rated Deadpool & Wolverine. However, this latest update suggests that Wolverine will play a role in the Multiverse Saga’s next big event, set to hit theaters on May 1, 2026.
The image shared on X shows Jackman in a battle-worn Wolverine suit, hinting at the intense action fans can expect. Avengers: Doomsday is already generating buzz with a star-studded cast, including Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, and Tom Hiddleston as Loki, among others. Jackman’s inclusion adds another layer of excitement, especially given the multiverse’s role in bringing together characters from different timelines, as noted in a recent Wikipedia entry on the MCU’s Multiverse Saga.
