Hugh Jackman 'Bulking' Back Up with Massive Meals for Wolverine Role in Deadpool 3

Reprising the role of the mutant superhero Wolverine means putting the pounds back on for Hugh Jackman. Along with many hours spent in the gym, Jackman has also been increasing his daily calorie consumption to further increase his size. Showcasing just how much he's been scarfing down in preparation for his Wolverine return, the actor posted an image on Twitter revealing the kinds of meals he's been eating each day.

"Bulking," Jackman says in the tweet. "A day in the life. Thank you Chef Mario for helping me stay healthy and properly fed whilst .. Becoming. Wolverine. Again."

Jackman's eating up to six meals on each day, and as Variety reports, it totals up to more than 8,000 calories per day at this point. That includes 2,000 calories worth of black bass, another 2,100 calories of Patagonia salmon, two chicken burgers that add another 2,000 calories, and two grass-fed sirloin steaks, each of which would add yet another 1,100 calories each.

Back in January, Jackman spoke about getting back into Wolverine shape for Deadpool 3 while on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. He said at that time he was building up toward consuming more than 6,000 calories a day, noting that he had gotten up to 4,000-5,000 at that point. Now it looks like Jackman has surpassed that number and then some.

Jennifer Garner Sets Elektra Return After Nearly 20 Years in ‘Deadpool 3’

Teeing up an inevitable “sai-ke” pun for Ryan Reynolds, Jennifer Garner is set to reprise her role as the sai-wielding superhero Elektra in Marvel Studios’ “Deadpool 3.”

Hugh Jackman is also reprising his performance as Wolverine for the movie, which is rapidly becoming a multiverse mash-up of bygone non-MCU Marvel movie characters. Garner first originated the role of Elektra Natchios in 2003’s “Daredevil” with Ben Affleck, which was a modest hit, and returned to headline 2005’s “Elektra,” which flopped.

In 2021, Garner told the Hollywood Reporter that she wished both of those films had been produced by Kevin Feige as a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. “It’s such a shame, honestly, because once Kevin took over everything there was elevated: the writing, the direction, the comedy inside of the stories they were telling,” she said. “And I did not have that experience.” Most recently, Garner starred in and executive produced the limited series “The Last Thing He Told Me” for Apple TV+.

Shawn Levy, who just directed Reynolds and Garner in 2022’s “The Adam Project,” is helming the film, from a script by franchise mainstays Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. Matthew Macfadyen (“Succession”) is also joining the cast, and Morena Baccarin, Karan Soni, Brianna Hildebrand and Leslie Uggams are returning from the previous two “Deadpool” films, which were made by 20th Century Fox prior to Disney’s acquisition of the studio. “Deadpool 3” will also be Marvel Studios’ first R-rated feature, in keeping with the franchise’s DGAF approach to superhero storytelling. It’s current scheduled to open on May 3, 2024.
