Since the Fox acquisition, it seems to be only a matter of time before the MCU brings mutants into the fold, and with the finality of 2016s Logan, it appears as though Marvel will have to look outside of Hugh Jackman and his iconic work on the character.
Playing Wolverine since the early 2000s, Hugh Jackman had clearly established himself as one of the most beloved comic book adaptations of all time, bringing humanity to the raw physicality of Logan, and leaving massive shoes to fill for whoever takes on the role next.

“So many times people come to me like, ‘hey man, heard the Wolverine news, that pretty cool.’ No, I don’t know anything about it.” Radcliffe stated, “Like, I appreciate that somebody is clearly going like ‘Wolverines actually short in the comic books, you should get a short guy to do it!'”
Radcliffe continued, “But I don’t see myself, I don’t see them going from Hugh Jackman to me. But who knows? Prove me wrong, Marvel.”

It is clear that fans have formed an affinity for Radcliffe portraying Wolverine, but it seems as though Marvel isn’t close to announcing just who will take on the beloved character.
