In Deadpool and Wolverine, many mutants and superheroes had their moment in the spotlight. Marvel Studios’ latest film paid homage to a host of characters that, following Disney’s purchase of Fox, are unlikely to be seen on the big screen anytime soon. While several characters stood out, others didn’t even make an appearance.
Such is the case of Liev Schreiberwho played Sabretooth in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. In an interview with US outlet Collider, the actor spoke about his experience in the franchise and his absence in the latest film starring Logan and Wade Wilson.
“I was really surprised that we had so many fans, and I was really surprised that people were campaigning for me to be in the new Deadpool movie. (…) It’s amazing. I can’t tell you how it feels when people think about something you did and appreciate it so much that they want you to do it again.”
Despite rumors that arose during filming about his possible appearance, the version of Victor Creed that we finally saw in Deadpool and Wolverine It was Tyler Mane, who had already played the character in the first installment of X-Men and returned 24 years later to reprise the role.
Despite several notable absences in the film, the third installment of Deadpool It has undoubtedly been a tribute to a series of films that, although not all were well received by critics, have left an important mark on the memory of fans.
