The movie Logan in 2017 has finalized a phase of the X-Men franchise with the death of Wolverine and the last X-Men film of Hugh Jackman. Hugh Jackman has been sticking with this character since the first X-Men movie in 2000. Since then, the figures for Wolverine has been tied with him in the mind of every audience.
While Logan has given a satisfying ending for the old generation of X-Men to prepare for the next phase of the franchise in the MCU, fans are still wondering if there is any chance that they can see Hugh Jackman as Wolverine on the big screen ever again, especially when Disney bought Fox last year along with the right to use X-Men characters.
In a recent interview, Hugh Jackman said that would have continued as the Wolverine if X-Men was in the MCU 7 years ago, but it is too late now as he "knew it was the right time for me to leave the party".
"Totally. Honestly, Marlow, if seven years ago that had happened I’d be like, “Oh yeah!” but I knew it was the right time for me to leave the party—not just for me, but for the character. Somebody else will pick it up and run with it." Hugh Jackman said in an interview.
Only if Disney bought Fox earlier so we can see Wolverine fight along with other characters such as Hulk and Ironman. Now, if Wolverine ever appears in the MCU, the character will be played by another actor and the fans will have to get used to it.
Also, in the Phase 4 plan of MCU, there is no X-Men movie or series on the list. So even if in the slim chance that X-Men is going to merge with the MCU, the fans still have to wait for at least a couple years more to see it happens.
