It's difficult to imagine modern superhero cinema without Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. His performance was universally judged to be one of the best things about 2000's X-Men, with Fox's X-Universe acting as a rough prototype for the MCU. Jackman's Wolverine was a near-constant presence throughout those movies, with his final turn in Logan proving to studios that an R-rated superhero film aimed at adults could be successful, thus helping pave the way for Joker.
