Absent from the recent cast announcement, the Barside Buzz says Hugh Jackman will cameo in Doomsday but have a major role in Secret Wars. I think we all knew Jackman would show up somewhere again as Wolverine, or this variant of him from Deadpool & Wolverine. However rumors so far have always pointed to Secret Wars and not Doomsday. Now Daniel RPK says Jackman cameos in Doomsday only, but backs a big role for Jackman in Secret Wars.
Check it out,
Cyclops deserves the spotlight he has in the comics and X-Men '97 but never got in any of the live-action films. Wokverine will have a huge role in Secret Wars but looks like only a cameo in Doomsday so this film is the only chance for Cycplos to stand out before the reboot. https://t.co/ND3760H0Eo

Fair in terms of the character. However, I’m not the biggest fan of Marsden. Therefore, not sure I wanna see that Cyclops focus until the X-Men Reboot myself.

Are the names most obviously missing from Doomsday, the leads in Secret Wars? Cap Marvel, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Wolverine, Deadpool? I guess we’ll need to see who all ends up in Doomsday and how that film plays out.
I certainly would be shocked if Jackman isn’t in Secret Wars, let’s put it that way.
Not massive news this one, but currently pertinent to the Doomsday cast debate. Of course Daniel has also been saying that some actors not announced just haven’t locked deals yet. He named Tom Holland as potentially one of those. Whilst another insider Jeff Sneider says Doomsday and Brand New Day happen at the same time, explaining Holland’s absence.
What do you think of this rumor that Hugh Jackman will cameo in Doomsday but have a major role in Secret Wars? Thoughts below.
