The years-long public “feud” between Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman is an appropriate way to advertise their upcoming film, as Logan and Wade Wilson will likely share a similar dynamic on the big screen. When the two are matched up in the comics, they often have a love-hate relationship. Actually, “love” might be too strong of a word. They butt heads plenty, but they also have to team up more than once, leading to often hilarious results.
That relationship, anchored by the chemistry between Reynolds and Jackman, looks like it will be at the center of the upcoming film, which is scheduled to be released in theaters on July 26. The two previous played the same characters opposite each other in 2009’s “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” — a critical flop that famously butchered the Deadpool character in the eyes of fans. Marvel Studios has a real chance to do the iconic comic book duo justice in 2024, but there’s a lot we still don’t know.
