Hugh posted photos being shaved after Deadpool 3 finished filming. But he forgot to take out the other photos in the set. Look at who is on the left -- wearing a black evening gown, with padded shoulders, short blonde hair & the ruby/diamond earrings!  |

Looks like this was posted from a screenshot of a picture hugh sent on someone else’s phone. Whoever helps handle his social media. |

Photos while still filming--    It must have been a very cold day for filming, they were wearing special long fluffer coats! Had filming not been delayed by the 4-month long actors strike -- they would have been filming these scenes in early October, as originally planned. Jo |

It looks like the issue between the creatives/actors versus Disney has not been resolved -- insofar as the final film version to be released is concerned, including what might be included in the home video.
An R-rated film that Disney is trying very hard to de-claw to PG-13!
What is wrong with Disney?? Is Bob Iger being pushed because he made the wrong decision to buy FOX at such an expensive price without fully appreciating that their adult orientation in their studio movies contrast too deeply with the infantilized Disney filmmaking ( the princesses, the adaptation of stories for the very young, etc, the fairy tale-ish legacy )?? His streaming goals was to provide all kinds of entertainment for all sectors of society ( to be profitable) , regardless of age. Now he seems not able to take in that the larger sectors are adult enough to appreciate real-life issues in their film choices. War is a terrible social phenomenon...and we all know the horrors of it. You cannot change its nature by making a movie that puts it in a less-horrific frame!
I hope Disney eventually realizes that they cannot infantilize the world (including the mature sector) -- realism is part of our lives.

Hopefully, Hugh et al will get their stand upheld vs Iger & Feige ( I think Feige has no choice but to support his boss & the shareholders who are insisting on DEI.

If you were Iger and Feige -- would you want to risk casting numerous unknowns to get your projects going -- when you know that having done that recently -- it started the downfall of the recent Marvel films??
Maybe Hugh knows that and is holding the fort?
Will there be some compromise?
Hugh probably cares less than Disney/Iger/Feige would.

I think downgrading the paygrade is very insulting for someone who has already established the character so well that it is now identified with him more than many other actors are in their roles. You downgrade a paygrade if you cut down the role ( which he may not agree to). But I cannot understand Disney's viewpoint. If the presence of a star-grade actor assures its tremendous success at the box office, why hesitate to pay him what he is worth. Increasing the back-end is not the same as having confidence the actor can deliver front-end! I think an actor like Hugh Jackman knows his value and is only asking for what is right and what is fair!
Iger is a weatherman by background - he knows now where the wind blows - he is contending with an actor like Jackman who knows he is the most versatile actor around( film & stage) with a reputation for his professional discipline! Feige should know better!
So, if this is all true -- the appearance of Hugh Jackman in future MCU films is now in question?

Is Disney now experimenting with casting the role with another actor? Why the rush of suggested replacements like Daniel Radcliffe/Taron Egerton/Henry Cavill -- ha -- they may have had their successes in their previous iconic roles -- but Wolverine is a differnt matter. And for 24 years, it is identified with Hugh Jackman. Per James Mangold, HJ gave the role an "incredible masculinity and strength" - can those 3 do that? Can they deliver the level of acting that HJ has given the role? They may come much cheaper - but what will the box office look like? Feige should know better. But it seems he has to kowtow to his boss Iger  Jo |

Does he continue to observe his "Wolverine" diet until all filming requirements are met? They are expecting reshoots in May.

So many rumors on the attempts of Iger & Feige to create female variants of original male characters ( such as Magneto & Wolverine). Here's an interesting exchange on the issue in general.
A debate about WOKE --
The reply is perfect! What Iger & Feige are trying to do by creating female variants (Wolverine/Magneto) of original male creations and destroying the artistic integrity.
That response drew many LIKES (close to 800).

If it is all about preserving artistic integrity -- Hugh Jackman is standing up for his principles.
Who cares if he no longer cares to continue his Wolverine saga after DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE?
