The actor debuted as Wolverine inX-Men (2000) and continued to make appearances in several franchise entries, including some dedicated to his character. His final Wolverine performance in 2017’s Logan is what helped Jackman achieve the world record for "longest career as a live-action Marvel superhero," which he held with Sir Patrick Stewart, whose appearance in Doctor Strange 2 should have now made him the sole recordholder. Now that the X-Men are nearing their introduction in the MCU, however, people are starting to wonder who might succeed Jackman in the role.
