And his latest response to the rumors likely won\u2019t convince anyone that he\u2019s outside the loop.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Though Tom Holland and <a data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/story-behind-mark-ruffalo-absolutely-120512066.html\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Mark Ruffalo are arguably the biggest secret-spoilers;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mark Ruffalo are arguably the biggest secret-spoilers<\/a> within the MCU\u2019s ever-growing stable of actors, Jackman\u2019s completely tongue-in-cheek response here may put him in the same conversation, even if his words themselves didn\u2019t give anything away. Here\u2019s what he told Adam Lupin in an interview shared on <a data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DX9oAnKmbQ2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Instagram;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Instagram<\/a> when asked about it all:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I have no idea what you&#8217;re talking about. What is it? Dooms-what? Who knows?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If that answer was given by someone&#8217;s great-grandmother, I could possibly see it as being a legitimate response. But given the gigantic, poop-noshing grin on Jackman&#8217;s face, and the general sense of &#8220;I&#8217;m laying this bullsh-t on thicker than all the sheep&#8217;s wool in all the lands,&#8221; I just don&#8217;t think he&#8217;s being entirely on the level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I&#8217;m far from alone in that respect, as the comment section for the above post is filled with doubts about his authenticity, as well as hype over seeing him back in the role following the chaos of Deadpool and Wolverine. Here&#8217;s a smattering of those replies:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"mb-4\">\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Just check his biceps. If they\u2019re swole, he\u2019s in \ud83d\ude02 &#8211; @andersonmmusic<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He\u2019ll be in it. Can\u2019t have Xavier, Magneto and Cyclops in the teaser trailer without having Wolverine in the movie &#8211; @cameron17171<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Yes \ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25 it&#8217;s totally a yes \ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25 &#8211; @kiki88213<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Is he shredded but doing a movie where he doesn\u2019t have to be? Cause if so\u2026 he\u2019s in it &#8211; @samhelfilms<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He&#8217;s very bad at lying \ud83d\ude02 &#8211; @donny.cos<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\ud83d\ude02Yeah because he&#8217;s not MARK RUFFALO and doesn&#8217;t enjoy ruining movie plots &#8211; @foy.the.fox<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Bro could\u2019ve just said \u201cI didn\u2019t get a call\u201d, HE\u2019S DEFINITELY IN IT &#8211; @rene.vr30<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I do love that an <a data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/celebrity\/articles\/hugh-jackmans-looking-less-wolverine-162955508.html\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:actor being ripped in everyday life;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">actor being ripped in everyday life<\/a> has now become a strong indicator that he or she is likely portraying a comic book superhero or villain. Because it almost always works out to be entirely true. Maybe not so much in the \u201880s and \u201890s when things weren\u2019t always taken to extremes, but absolutely these days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Given that we&#8217;ll see James Marsden back in Cyclops mode, on top of all the other OG X-Men stars returning for Avengers: Doomsday, I would be baffled if the Russo brothers make it all the way through that movie without bringing Jackman&#8217;s Wolverine out. It&#8217;s the kind of decision that would definitely need to be stressed and confirmed well ahead of time, as opposed to this elongated span of &#8220;Will he appear? Won&#8217;t he appear?&#8221; guessing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The only way I&#8217;ll believe that the Aussie actor isn&#8217;t in Doomsday is if Robert Downey Jr. himself publicly states that he&#8217;s also going to portray Wolverine on top of playing Doctor Doom. Beyond that, my expectations are set in stone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Avengers: Doomsday will claw its way into theaters on December 18, 2026. Like a Wolverine claw. Because he&#8217;s in the movie.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
