Hugh Jackman teasing a Huge Announcement on Thursday

*TigerClaw* · 11-26-2018, 01:49 PM

It looks like Hugh Jackman is teasing a huge announcement on Thursday. He will make this announcement during the Today Show. So I have no idea what it could be. I hope its something Wolverine related.

It won't be, but it'd be awesome if it was Wolverine-related.

My hope is that he joins the MCU on some project.

Either way, it's interesting, because he has to know the type of speculation this will attract. The biggest fandom he is involved with is Marvel and him and Ryan have been teasing the collaboration a lot during these last few weeks. At this point, I don't need to see him in a film with Deadpool. I mean, Logan was such a great sendoff for his time as Wolverine, but I'd gladly look forward to it, if that is what they announce.

Good for him, whatever it is. Always seemed like a great guy.

It's possible that he has filmed some new stuff as Wolverine in the "Once Upon a Deadpool." Because after that... time's up.

That could be possible. But I hope it isn't that.

That seems a lot more plausible than announcing Deadpool 3: Hugh Finally Said Yes.

I would almost bet the farm on it. And Jackman is huge into charities... that a lot of the proceeds from "Once Upon a Deadpool" are going to cancer foundations (plus Jackman is a cancer survivor himself), put two and two together -- Reynolds finally found a way to wear Jackman down and appeal to his good nature.

Kind of stupid, though, since it's for the PG-13 movie. Unless... hm... is there any way this has all been a ruse and it's not PG-13?

I kinda doubt that. They probably want to appeal to the mommies and daddies who somehow accidentally took their little tykes to see the first Deadpool and then were offended when he said "fvck" more than the acceptable once that all family-friendly PG-13 films naturally allow.

I’m wondering if he’s going to star in a stage adaptation of The Greatest Showman or if he’s returning to Broadway. Maybe he’s going to release an album.

None of that would be "huge" news. Or news he would think would be huge to people at large.

Let's face it. He's always been associated with Wolverine since day one. He's done a lot of work outside of playing Wolverine. So by having it a be huge announcement. It can only mean its something related to Wolverine.

It has to be. No ifs, ands. or buts. One way or another. We can expect some type of announcement that may involve Wolverine and Marvel in some capacity. Given that Disney will be owning Fox.

What if the announcement is a Wolverine Series on Disney+?

Well Deadpool isn't in continuity with the X-Men fox universe right? I remember reading Disney planned to continue R rated Deadpool. If that's true Disney may decide just to incorporate Deadpool into the MCU and have that be the first official adventures of mutants in the MCU. In that case I don't see him being Wolverine again for the movie, maybe as a cameo.

If he were to announce that he's in Once Upon a Deadpool. It would be kinda a let down. Since that movie is just a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 with added footage in between. and even if it was. It would probably be just a cameo. and not a part that's vital to the film.

I want this announcement to be something that's related to Fox, Marvel, and Disney.

Deadpool is in continuity with with whatever the current rights holders want it to be. Until the Fox acquisition is completed by Disney that means it's Fox and the Fox-Men, of which Hugh Jackman's Wolverine is a part of.

There's 0 chance this would be a new Wolverine movie, as it would neither make any sense for Fox to be announcing new X-Men movies right now that will just get killed by Disney when the deal is complete in a couple of weeks OR for Jackman to treat any such farcical thing as "huge news."

100% chance this is Wolvie in "Once Upon a Deadpool."

It's totally unclear how much new footage will be in this movie. It could be a ton.

That would be stupid if that what it turned out to be. But it be nothing more then a glorified cameo. So I hope for something bigger then that.

A quick cameo wouldn't be "huge news" either. Plus if it was just a quick cameo they'd probably keep it secret until the movie came out.

For all we know it could be a bromance with Deadpool and Wolverine meeting up and time-traveling through the events of Deadpool 2, 1, or even other Fox-Men movies.

You underestimate how huge Greatest Showman was. A stage adaptation would be a lot bigger news than him showing up in Deadpool, especially since it's only supposed to have 15 minutes of new footage so it wouldn't be much of him.

They said that, in a moment, to keep the howling wolves at bay.

It isn't true.

Proof being, the current Powers-That-Be are re-selling a "TV Edit" version of a movie everybody already saw 6 months ago and already bought on Blu-ray. Just to prove that they can get your money FOUR times (once this comes out on disc and digital), and that people will still throw them a parade for it.

After that, WHY would Disney/Marvel want to gamble on R-rated comic book movies, after seeing it proven that you can gut them, re-sell them, and STILL make billions? Simple answer, they won't. There's no reason to. "Family-Friendly", all-day, forever.

Nice job, suckers!

Hope you liked "Logan" and the first two Deadpools; that ride's over.
