Ryan ReynoldsandHugh Jackmanare suited up for Marvel.
As Reynolds, 46, and Jackman, 54, both posted a still image of themselves in character as Deadpool and Wolverine to their respective Instagram Stories on Monday, the pair were spotted filming scenes for the movie in London.
The photos show Reynolds completely immersed in his red-and-black Deadpool costume, while Jackman appears as his longtimeX-Menseries lead Logan / Wolverine in a bright yellow jumpsuit with blue accents. In one snapshot, Jackman donned sunglasses and could be seen smiling as he and Reynolds chatted, while another image showcased Logan getting angry — with CGI claws presumably on the way.
The new Wolverine look shows off a costume that more closely resembles the character’scomic book originsthan what Jackman often wore across his past nine onscreen appearances as the character.
“Don’t blink,” both men simply wrote as a caption to their respective Instagram Stories, including small animations of their characters below the photo as well.
