Deadpool & Wolverine | New Final Trailer

Wolverine's comic-accurate mask in Deadpool & Wolverine will mark an important change not only for the MCU, but possibly for the DCU as well. Hugh Jackman's return as Wolverine in Deadpool & Wolverine marks the tenth time the actor portrays the iconic mutant on the big screen, yet it will be the first time he wears Wolverine's yellow suit and mask in live-action. Although the mask hasn't been featured in any trailer or spot, promotional material for Deadpool & Wolverine has confirmed that Jackman's Wolverine will wear it at some point, and that it includes comic-accurate white lenses.

It took 24 years for Wolverine to wear the classic suit and mask for the first time on screen, not precisely because of each X-Men director's refusal to feature the costume, but mostly because the superhero genre was unprepared for faithful recreations of comic book suits throughout most of Fox's X-Men movie franchise. Whereas black leather suits were the boldest look the X-Men could sport back in the early 2000s, audiences can now easily accept colorful costumes and animated white eyes in 2024. However, one famous character's mask still needs to pass the same test as Wolverine.
