Daniel Radcliffe will take on the role of Wolverine in an upcoming Marvel Studios film. Titled “The Wolverine,” the film promises to bring a new take on the beloved mutant superhero, with Radcliffe set to make the character his own.

While many fans were initially skeptical about anyone stepping into the shoes of Hugh Jackman, the actor who played Wolverine for nearly two decades, Jackman himself has expressed excitement about Radcliffe taking on the role. In a recent statement, Jackman shared his excitement, saying, “I couldn’t be happier to be passing the claws to someone as talented as Daniel Radcliffe. He’s an incredible actor and I have no doubt he will do the character justice.
