Jackman played Wolverine for the first time inX-Menin 2000, and he never wore the yellow & navy blue suit in his entire run with the 20th Century Fox movies. When photos of the Australian actor on theDeadpool 3set in his suit were released, fans were celebrating the comic-accurate depiction of the character.
However, the latest scoop suggests that there might be a very sad reason for Wolverine wearing the suit in his multiversal adventure. If the rumors are true, Marvel fans are sure to shed some tears for the character in the theaters next month.

This version of Wolverine could be the last one remaining among the X-Men and join Deadpool in the adventure to seek some kind of retribution. According to the scooper, Cyclops andother X-Men in his universereportedly asked him to wear the suit always, which he refused. Now that he has lost all of them, he feels it is his responsibility to wear the suit.
Cyclops and the X-Men reportedly always begged this Logan to wear the yellow suit to fit in the group, but he never did.
After he failed them and they all died, now he feels it’s his responsibility to wear it in ‘DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE’.

Fans recalled how they were disappointed with Singer’s take on the comic-accurate suit. Many fans reacted to how Marvel was righting a wrong by bringing the yellow suit into the films.
I keep thinking about how comic book movies used to distance themselves from source material, like when Cyclops mocked yellow spandex.
