In the present world of superhero films, it is extremely challenging to maintain secrets. The uncountable set leaks, reports, and sometimes even the official trailers significantly spoil the movie. Recently, it was also observed inDeadpool & Wolverinewhere the appearance of Dafne Keen’s X-23 fromLoganwas spoiled in the trailer itself. However, Hugh Jackman was highly impressed how unlike,Deadpool 3, 2017’sLoganmaintained its big twist.

Logan, directed by James Mangold is a highly revered film for being a praiseworthy swansong to Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. The 2017 movie, partially inspired by theOld Man Loganstoryline, presented one of the best surprises when we spotted Logan’s clone as X-24. Nobody expected that we would see Hugh Jackman facing himself as the big bad in his swansong.

Following the mammoth success ofAvengers: Endgame, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has developed some unique aspects that don’t sit well with many fans. Besides rampant set leaks and almost accurate insider reports, the Kevin Feige fortress also gives out a lot of stuff through its trailers and uncountable TV Spots.

Before the release of the much-hypedDoctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness, Marvel Studios put out numerous footage that spoilt a massive chunk of the film. Very recently, the fans were also disappointed whenDafne Keen‘s X-23 was spotted in theDeadpool 3trailer. But on the contrary,Logan‘s big twist of a Wolverine clone (also played byHugh Jackman) being the antagonist was not spoiled before the film’s release.

The fans were utterly shocked to get the big reveal at the theaters as it was not even slightly teased in the promotional materials. Hugh Jackman, in an interview withCollider, stated that it was amazing how the audience did not get spoiled before checking out the film. He also thanked his cast and crew, who did not reveal anything beforehand.

Yeah actually now that I think about it, I mean there’s a lot of secrecy around these things and everyone tries to protect it, but it’s kind of actually amazing. I suppose that when we were shooting it, I was shooting both parts so I played both, so if I turn up on set everyone just knows I’m playing that.

That’s a good point, I’ve gotta give props to the crew and the cast, no one spilled the beans. I hadn’t thought about it until just now. But it’s fun being in screenings and watching people gasp. They do not see it coming.

Although we were almost certain that Dafne Keen’s X-23 fromLoganwould appear inDeadpool & Wolverine, it would have been better to enjoy it for the first time on the big screen. Nonetheless, Kevin Feige stated that they had their reasons to spoil the extended cameo appearance.

Deadpool& Wolverineis filled to the brim with many intelligently incorporated cameo appearances by many unexpected celebrities. While all of them were kept as secrets, Marvel Studios played a bizarre move by confirming Laura aka X-23’s appearance in a trailer, released one week before the film’s release.

In an interview withVariety, Kevin Feige shared that it was never their original intention. He justified the revelation by stating that Dafne Keen wanted to attend the premiere of the film. On top of it, he also explained that the revelationconfirmedthe audience about the presence of an emotional core in the cameo-filled extravaganza.

Ultimately, when Kevin Feige checked the final trailer, he felt that“it was great”and it also ensured a red-carpet appearance forThe Acolyteactress. Nevertheless, it can be undoubtedly stated that ardent fans still love the pre-Avengers: Endgameera or theLogan-esque hidden cameo where we could enter the theatres unspoiled. It contributed to a more lasting impact of the surprises witnessed on-screen.
