Mark Millar Declares Taron Egerton Will Be the Next Wolverine
James Howlett born in the Northwest Territory of Canada in 1832 was a mutant with healing powers & claws in the X-Men Comics & movie series. Wolverine had bone claws for the early years of his life till the death of his love, Kayla.
Kayla was killed by Victor, James’s brother so to take revenge Logan agreed for an experiment which introduced Adamantine in his skeleton.
Before he got the experiment procedure started he asked William Stryker to write the name tag with “wolverine” thus came to be known as Wolverine.
Wolverine his memories were partially erased on purpose by William Stryker to use his DNA for his experiment but he flew the facility & went on a run.
Logan leads the X-Men team for many years after being discovered by Xavier & team earning a reputation for himself & he also took care of Charles Xavier in his old age.
Later in the series, he finds a daughter X-23 takes her under his wing & causing Zander to chase him eventually killed him.
He was killed by his own clone X-24 as over time the Adamantine skeleton poisoned his system which leads to failure of his healing mechanism.
Wolverine died in peace saying, “So, this is what it feels like.” These were his last words.
Actor
Wolverine was played by Hugh Jackman from the very beginning of the movie series in 2000. But now that the older version has died & there is a slight chance of introducing X-Men to MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe).
