After Hugh Jackman’s return as Wolverine in the MCU, many are still confused about who would play Wolverine after the untitled ‘Deadpool 3’ movie. Since many names are coming as the front runners, Dacre Montgomery says playing Wolverine is not on the cards for him. Read on to see what he has to say about it.

In a conversation with The Daily Telegraph, Dacre Montgomery reveals he wouldn’t take on the role of Wolverine because he wouldn’t want to do it an ‘injustice’. He says, “I feel like it is an amazing opportunity as a newcomer in the Australian acting world to craft my own story, to craft my own path and journey and Hugh has been a really amazing advocate of mine. I almost wouldn’t want to do that whole scenario injustice by trying to step into that space”.
