10 Huge Movie Returns Nobody Ever Expected (THAT ARE FINALLY HAPPENING!)

10. Hugh Jackman As Wolverine - Deadpool 3

After an absolutely perfect and hugely emotional send-off in James Mangold's Logan, Hugh Jackman seemed very much happy to wave goodbye to his time as the X-Men's legendary anti-hero.

He'd put in a hell of shift since debuting as Logan/Wolverine in that first 2000 entry. And after playing the character on a whopping nine different occasions over the subsequent 17-years, it looked like it was finally time to pass the adamantium claws to another actor.

But in one of the biggest casting shocks of recent times, Ryan Reynolds' years of pestering his pal to unleash his inner Wolverine one more time finally paid off in September 2022.

Not only that, Jackman will be reprising his most famous role in a damn Deadpool movie opposite Reynolds' 'Merc with a Mouth', with the third entry in the franchise also seemingly set to bring back a number of other famous Marvel faces (but more on that later!).

And if that already wasn't enough of a reason to get excited about Deadpool's first-ever appearance as part of the MCU, the first images (via Deadline) of Jackman and Reynolds wandering around a set together have also revealed the return of Wolvie's iconic yellow suit.

What a time to be alive!
