Jackman introduced the idea of an Unforgiven-esque ending to director James Mangold during Logan’s development but was dismissed.
Mangold has spoken at depths about the ending, explaining how Logan dying to X-24 – the younger version of himself – was something interesting on numerous psychological levels.
Since the film’s release, Logan’s ending has been widely discussed among superhero fans, many praising Hugh Jackman’s final outing for giving the Wolverine a fitting final few moment.
“It was always floated that Logan would possibly die,” Jackman continued.
