In the clip, he can be seen giving his all in the gym, pushing himself to new limits.

Having portrayed Wolverine in a total of nine films, Jackman initially thought he had bid farewell to the character in 2017's Logan, directed by James Mangold. However, the persuasive efforts of his friends Ryan Reynolds and Shawn Levy convinced him to reprise the role once again.

Jackman's commitment to his physical transformation is no surprise, as he has consistently shown his dedication to the role of Wolverine. His personal trainer, Beth Lewis, who has been closely working with the actor, expressed her pride in his efforts. In a repost of Jackman's workout video, Lewis praised him as the 'Greatest of All Time' and commended his unwavering work ethic.

It's not just through his workouts that Jackman keeps fans in the loop. He actively engages with them on social media, sharing updates and insights into his preparation for the role. Even during the SAG-AFTRA strike, Jackman took to Instagram to share a photo of himself working hard with a kettlebell, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to becoming Wolverine once again.

Fans can mark their calendars for the highly anticipated release of Deadpool 3, which is scheduled to hit theaters on July 26, 2024. With Jackman's return as Wolverine and the integration of these beloved characters into the MCU, it promises to be an exciting and action-packed addition to the superhero franchise.

As we eagerly await the highly anticipated film, let's appreciate Hugh Jackman's dedication to his craft and the lengths he goes to in order to bring Wolverine to life once again.
