The farewell of the famous actor was perfect, but Jackman is not yet ready to hang up his claws.

Not much is known about Deadpool 3 other than Hugh Jackman’s appearance, but the new film it will certainly mark a change in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It sounds like the movie will likely see a version of Wolverine that fans haven’t met before; whether that means a Wolverine from another universe or a Wolverine before the events of Logan remains to be seen. In any case, some time travel is possible.
Deadpool 3 is expected to start filming in May 2023.
