Wolverine's MCU suit gets spotlighted in new CinemaCon merchandise.

Deadpool & Wolverine is set to arrive in theaters in a matter of months, taking the Marvel multiverse into some uncharted and unexpected territory. The film will not only bring 20th Century Fox's hit Deadpool franchise over into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it will once again feature Hugh Jackman as Logan Howlett / Wolverine, complete with a brand-new and comic-accurate costume. Outside of one photo released while Deadpool & Wolverine was in production, we have not gotten a major glimpse at the new Wolverine suit — until now. 

A new Deadpool & Wolverine promotional cup has been found at this week's CinemaCon convention in Las Vegas, giving distributors an early look at the movie theater merchandise that will be available for the film. The cup shows a new official look at Jackman in his Wolverine costume, complete with his claws.

How Is Hugh Jackman Returning in Deadpool & Wolverine?

At the moment, it is unclear exactly how Jackman's return in Deadpool & Wolverine will be explained, especially given the character's canonical death in 2017's Logan. Reynolds and Jackman have already confirmed that the events of the film will not undo Logan, and Reynolds has indicated that his biggest priority is to deliver a quality story.

"I always wanted Hugh to come back," Reynolds explained in a previous interview with Collider. "My first meeting with Kevin Feige when Disney bought Fox years ago, maybe three years ago, or three and a half, four years ago, I'm not sure, was about doing a movie with the two of us, a Deadpool Wolverine movie. And that was not possible at the time. And then Hugh just happened to call at that perfect moment and express that he'd be interested in coming back and doing this one more time. And the contents of that conversation, I'll let Hugh, because I know it's only inevitable that you and Hugh are going to speak at some point soon, I'm sure. I'll let Hugh answer that on his own. But he expressed interest in coming back, and then it was my job to take that to Kevin Feige one more time and sell it."

What Is Deadpool & Wolverine About?

In Deadpool & Wolverine, Deadpool will change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Wolverine. The film will also star Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Stefan Kapičić as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, and Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen in currently-unknown roles. Jennifer Garner is expected to reprise her role as Elektra from the Daredevil and Elektra films of the 2000s.

Deadpool & Wolverine is directed by Shawn Levy, with a script from Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.
