The speculation is swirling among fans as they dissect the recently dropped teaser trailer for Deadpool 3, with many believing they’ve caught a glimpse of Daniel Radcliffe possibly portraying a variant of Wolverine.
While Hugh Jackman’s classic yellow-suited Wolverine made a brief appearance in the trailer’s final moments, eagle-eyed viewers have spotted another character earlier on who bears resemblance to the white-suited Wolverine variant known as Patch. In Marvel lore, Patch is an alias used by Wolverine during undercover operations in the fictional island of Madripoor.
Fans have been quick to point out subtle differences between this variant and Jackman’s iconic portrayal. Some note differences in height and hairstyle, sparking theories that it might not be Jackman reprising the role. Speculation has led to suggestions that Daniel Radcliffe could potentially be the actor behind this variant, though nothing has been confirmed.
Audience members on CoveredGeekly’s social platforms have been buzzing with theories, with some pointing out the shorter stature and different hair of the variant compared to Jackman’s Wolverine. Others have proposed actors like Rob McElhenney for the role.
Interestingly, in the Deadpool 3 Super Bowl spot, Ryan Reynolds can be heard mentioning “Deadpool and a Wolverine,” fueling speculation about the presence of multiple Wolverine variants in the film.
While the details remain speculative for now, fans eagerly anticipate Deadpool 3’s release on July 26, 2024, to see if their theories prove true.
