‘I Knew Immediately It Would Work’: Hugh Jackman Recalls How Wearing Wolverine’s Yellow Suit For The First Time On Deadpool 3 Brought Him Closer To The Character
Before Deadpool & Wolverine, the only other time Wolverine’s yellow costume was depicted in live-action was in a deleted scene from The Wolverine, when Yukio gave him a case containing said costume. During Hugh Jackman’s run as Wolverine during the main X-Men film series when 20th Century Fox was still around, his character was slicing and dicing folks up in either civilian clothing or some kind of black leather getup.
“When I got in the yellow and blue, I knew immediately it would work. It felt amazing. I felt more grounded, deeper, connected than I ever had before in the 24 years.”
“I was astonished at how we never tried it and never looked at it, but when I see it, particularly with that cowl, I feel more than ever before me, Hugh Jackman, is lost, gone. It’s just Wolverine.”
Can’t say the same for the hood though. That did not look good on camera.
The hood itself was good but the CGI white eyes were off-putting.
It will get improved through time, through the movies, and viewers will get used to it.
