Because his whole comeback as wolverine has made him a huge sellout. He kept going on for years about how important Logan was and that he would never come back. Then he did, for a bucket of cash, for a film not 1/10th as good or impactful as Logan.
Ok_Will_30382025-11-23 03:06
That's because Ryan Reynolds begged him to. Ryan really wanted a Deadpool and Wolverine movie.
remerdy12025-11-23 03:24
He literally said even back then he'd consider coming back for the MCU
Puzzled_Influence9852025-11-23 02:57
These tweets never capture the tone of whatever question these actors are responding to. For all we know he was making a joke like you said
Turbulent-Brain-67702025-11-23 02:59
You guys love this AI shit. They used AI for luke skywalker and it was awesome. Of course I’d like to recast Wolverine, who wouldn’t but if they need to use a little AI to make things look better or more smooth who gives a fuck. Ai cgi same fucking thing. It’s not like he’ll be wolverine still in the next phase but if they NEED IT SO HE CAN RUN ON ALL 4’s like he did in Deadpool and Wolverine… again who gives a fuck
_Levitated_Shield_2025-11-23 04:59
...When was Luke Skywalker ai?
FigureArty2025-11-23 03:00
This seems like a joke.
Sorta of how they put Tarkin and Leia in Rogue One.
JorryckMassani2025-11-23 03:19
Thankfully/unfortunately/terrifyingly they've gotten much better at it by now.
Scary-Oil69982025-11-23 03:59
That’s not ai
_Levitated_Shield_2025-11-23 05:03
It's really bugging me that seemingly more and more people are confusing cgi with ai.
Scary-Oil69982025-11-24 15:15
People need to do more research on ai
nowhereman1362025-11-23 03:01
I kinda wish they would be done with Xmen entirely. Or at least the established cast. Xmen in the MCU should be entirely new cast
MurderinAlgiers2025-11-23 03:07
Thats literally what they're doing
JustADutchRudder2025-11-23 03:12
Well they should be newer and faster and 1 letter greater. YMen.
eagc72025-11-23 03:33
This is meant to be their final round (Expect for Ryan and maybe Hugh)
Considering this is a saga about the multiverse it makes sense why they wanna play with the Foxverse for a little while.

"'Until your 90!"
DJfunkyPuddle2025-11-23 03:41
Until your 90 what?
Particular_Archer4992025-11-23 03:44
Fuck me...
I'm leaving it because I deserve the ridicule.
legion_XXX2025-11-23 03:05
Deadpool and wolverine was 90% CGI anyway with his scenes and outfit.
FlyingTrilobite2025-11-23 03:27
Massive difference between intentional, artistic CGI and AI prompted slop.
legion_XXX2025-11-23 17:04
Wasn't super serious, just pointing out how bad the mask and final fight looked.
TomBromeo2025-11-23 03:06
I just finished watching this week's Graham Norton Show where this quote was snipped from. It was a quick talk show joke related to (I think) the amount of work it takes to keep his "Wolverine physique".
TheIratePrimate2025-11-23 03:08
It's a joke.
NATHAN3252025-11-23 03:08
"X is reportedly returning/appearing in Y as Z" yall cant we have anything saved for the theater?
monitoring272025-11-23 03:12
obviously a joke any other interpretation is ridiculous
Muroid2025-11-23 06:04
I get that writing sometimes muddles tone, but people really do constantly post quotes of the most obvious jokes anyone has ever joked and then ask whether the person was joking or not.
elmostrok2025-11-23 06:40
Meh. I'd understand if we lived in cultural bubbles or we were all identical, but not everyone speaks English as a first language. And you'll say, what does language have to do with this? Well, as a bilingual, I can say there's definitely a difference in how jokes are delivered, different tones, and different cues. (Hell, I often see Americans and Brits saying their respective humor is different.)
This is one of the reasons I've never been against "tagging" stuff with "/s" or "/jk" (or whatever else). Sometimes, the person reading simply lacks all the necessary knowledge to read the text as a joke. Jokes are meant to be shared by all, not a select few that get to nudge each other as they mock those who didn't "get it".
bunnybeehb2025-11-23 08:47
I think as long as he gets his cut, he couldn't care less.
deep_fried_cheese2025-11-23 03:15
It’s not that serious
esar242025-11-23 03:16
I mean if he wanted to donate his voice for AI on disney media then I don't mind, considering JEJ did exactly the same and we can hear his voice again in FN even after his death.
AceofKnaves442025-11-23 03:19
Hugh deserves to finally see his dream come true and be an Avenger. Him and Tobey finally sharing the screen would also complete what was supposed to be a plan over twenty years ago as Hugh was supposed to cameo in the first Spider-Man.
sketchampm2025-11-23 04:02
He also said his dream is to fight Ruffalo’s Hulk.
AceofKnaves442025-11-23 04:04
He’s absolutely earned the right to live out those dreams. He’s given so much to the character and carried the flag for the X-men for so long. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.
sketchampm2025-11-23 04:09
Yup. I’m here for it.
Amity_Swim_School2025-11-23 03:29
Bit cheeky to count First Class as one of his “ten films”
SeedMaster268012025-11-23 03:45
Obviously he is 💀
worldwarzack2025-11-23 03:53
Reddit hates AI, we get it. Not sure it’s going anywhere though. Hugh isn’t far off here. It’s a possible reality lol
Less_Age41642025-11-23 04:47
I just find it's hard to hold a single bit of sympathy, especially for the people in Hollywood. When the whole "learn to code" thing was going on when people were expressing concerns for their job security.
Now because it's Hollywood that's livelihood that could be impacted. I'm supposed to care
_Levitated_Shield_2025-11-23 05:00
It's not a possible reality since Hugh is open to returning for the role.
Till you're 90.
worldwarzack2025-11-23 03:55
The comments in denial of his outlook of AI shows how much of an echo chamber Reddit is lol. Nobody is saying these things in real life
chewywheat2025-11-23 04:15
To be fair, even if not a joke, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine is in so much movies that it may as well be true.
JENOVAcide2025-11-23 04:15
I heard Hugh laughing as I read it
epicface13992025-11-23 04:37
Until he's 90
_Levitated_Shield_2025-11-23 04:57
It's painfully obvious he's joking, come on.
notanewbiedude2025-11-23 05:35
I think he's insinuating there that he'd say yes to avoid them using AI instead.
LowAd81092025-11-23 07:29
Looks like Wade was wrong. He'll work past 90.
mql2832025-11-23 08:48
Mostly a joke, especially from these people at internet posting random ai stuff that wanna make us believe lol
Fares265972025-11-23 09:46
Even if he isn't joking, which he obviously is, if he were to consent for an Ai version of himself to be made, then that's his choice, nothing wrong with it.
Edit: upon further thought, if it were to be used to keep him as Wolverine, meaning no other actor would be cast in the role after him, then that would suck, and I don't think he should be up for that.
