The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a well-oiled machine, one that consistently puts out new content in theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription. There are a ton of upcoming Marvel movies in development, including Jake Schreier's X-Men film. And a new rumor about that film is that a major member of the team won't be included: Wolverine. Although I honestly get the logic.
Fans who spent years watching the Marvel movies in order have been not-so-patiently waiting for mutants to join the fun. Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox finally opened the door for this, but the studio hasn't rushed to get out a new X-Men movie. According to scooper MTTSH (via CBM), the Thunderbolts* director isn't going to include Wolverine in his developing blockbuster. I have to assume this is thanks to the legacy of Hugh Jackman as that character, a role that he's still playing to this day.
