Predicting How 2017’s Biggest Movies Will End

10. Professor X Dies, Logan Lives Out His Days In Peace - Logan

A lot of fans are convinced that they already have the ending of Hugh Jackman's final Wolverine movie, Logan, figured out.

Jackman can be seen digging a grave in the trailer, which most people reasonably believe to be for Patrick Stewart's Professor Xavier, given the rather ropey shape he appears to be in throughout the movie.

Whether or not this scene itself is a misdirection, it seems likely that Xavier will die before the end of the movie, possibly even sacrificing himself to save X-23 (Dafne Keen) and ensure that Logan can live out the remainder of his life in peace.

It would be a fitting and emotional (if not particularly surprising) end, and exactly the sort of send-off Jackman's consistently brilliant work deserves.
