But, to make that happen, The Greatest Showman star said he needed to make sure that nothing could “screw with the Logan timeline” before saying yes to Deadpool producer and friend Reynolds.“It’s all because of this device they have in the Marvel world of moving around timelines,” Jackman explained to Jess Cagle and Julia Cunningham on their SiriusXM radio show [as per Variety]. “Now we can go back because, you know, it’s science.

So, I don’t have to screw with the ‘Logan’ timeline, which was important to me. And I think probably to the fans too.”Jackman last appeared as the classic Marvel character in 2017’s Logan, which was touted heavily as his final outing in the role.
