Karl Urban Replaces Jackman's Wolverine In Incredible X-Men Deepfake Video
As fans continue to campaign for actors to take on the role, The Boys star Karl Urban gets the Wolverine treatment in an incredible X-Men deepfake video. After making his screen debut with animated shows in the '80s and '90s, Hugh Jackman brought the character to life for the first time in live-action with 2000's X-Men, the debut outing of Fox's film franchise centered on the eponymous superhero team. Born as James Howlett, most of the X-Men films suffering from amnesia and going by the name Logan, struggling to find the truth of his identity and use his regenerative healing abilities and adamantium claws to protect the world.
Though some of the X-Men films scored decidedly mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike, Jackman would score rave reviews for his performance as Wolverine. Jackman's popularity in the role would see him get multiple spinoff movies, beginning with the poorly received X-Men Origins: Wolverine and continually with the generally well-received The Wolverine and concluding with the Oscar-nominated Logan. With the rights to the X-Men reverting to Marvel Studios following Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox, audiences are gearing up for the arrival of the team and Wolverine in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and one fan has their own idea of who can take on the mantle.
