Marvel fans are buzzing with excitement as a new Wolverine trademark filing has appeared online, fuelling hopes of a solo MCU movie centred on the clawed mutant. Hugh Jackman’s iconic portrayal of Wolverine has remained one of the most beloved characters in Marvel history, and his return in 2024’s Deadpool & Wolverine reignited anticipation for his future in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
New Wolverine Trademark Hints at Future Project
The latest trademark, spotted on Justia Trademarks, lists “Wolverine” under categories like motion picture films and multimedia entertainment content. Alongside the filing is a formal logo displaying the name “Wolverine”, sparking widespread speculation among fans about a potential solo movie or series.
While some believe this could point to an upcoming Wolverine MCU movie, others caution that trademark filings are routinely renewed and may not be tied to a new project. Regardless, social media has been flooded with reactions. Comments such as “Wolverine series/project right after Secret Wars hype” and “GOAT getting content soon” show the excitement surrounding the possibility.
Hugh Jackman and Wolverine’s MCU Future
Although Hugh Jackman’s future as Wolverine has not been officially confirmed, Marvel Studios reportedly wants to retain him in the role after his appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine. With Jackman now officially part of the MCU canon, fans are hopeful that the studio will give him a chance to star in a solo movie or mini-series before retiring the character.
Upcoming Wolverine Appearances
Wolverine’s next confirmed project is the animated X-Men ’97 Season 2, scheduled for release next year. For live-action, rumours suggest he may appear in Avengers: Doomday (2026) or Avengers: Secret Wars (2027). However, Marvel Studios’ planned X-Men reboot, directed by Jake Schreier, reportedly won’t focus on Wolverine, potentially leaving room for a standalone film featuring Jackman’s version of the character.

Will a Solo Wolverine Movie Happen?
The combination of a new trademark filing, Jackman’s MCU return, and Marvel’s ongoing expansion of the mutant universe makes a solo Wolverine project plausible. Fans remain hopeful that the studio will give Wolverine a dedicated storyline, allowing Jackman to have one final hurrah before a new MCU Wolverine is introduced in the broader mutant saga.
