After a long wait, Marvel’s Wolverine was finally revealed at the recent Sony State of Play event. The game’s development was thrown into uncertainty after Insomniac Games, the studio creating it, was hit by a major cyberattack in 2023 that leaked a huge amount of data. Fortunately, fans can now see that the game is still moving forward.
The State of Play event ended with a look at *Marvel’s Wolverine*, showcasing exciting gameplay and environments. They also announced that Liam McIntyre, an Australian actor, will play Logan, the character known for his claws. It’s interesting that another Australian will be taking on the role after Hugh Jackman, who famously played Wolverine for over 20 years in the movies. While McIntyre might not be as well-known as Jackman, he has a strong background in acting.
Liam McIntyre Takes on the Titular Role of Marvel’s Wolverine
No Stranger to the World of Video Games
John McIntyre is a voice actor who has worked on several popular video game series, including *Gears of War* and *Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order*. He’s best known for voicing JD Fenix, the son of Marcus Fenix, in *Gears of War 4* and *Gears 5*. Players of *Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order* may also recognize his voice as Taron Malicos.

I’ve played a lot of games featuring characters from franchises like *Gears of War* and *Star Wars Jedi*, and I think it’s awesome seeing an actor like McIntyre take on a role with so much history. This is the first time he’s stepped into shoes that fans already have a really strong idea about. Seriously, Hugh Jackman *was* Wolverine for so long, so a lot of us have expectations. It’s a little risky changing things up, but honestly, that’s what makes it exciting! It feels like this could be a whole new take on Logan, and I’m here for it.

Marvel’s Wolverine will travel to Tokyo, Canada, and the fictional island of Madripoor.
McIntyre May Look Familiar to History Buffs and TV Lovers
Liam McIntyre is known for his work in historical dramas, notably the Starz series *Spartacus*. He took over the lead role after the original actor sadly passed away, and it remains one of his most recognizable parts. He’s also appeared in *The Legend of Hercules* and had a recurring role on *The Flash*. Now, landing the role of Wolverine is a huge moment in his career, and fans are eagerly awaiting more details about *Marvel’s Wolverine* to see his take on the iconic, often-angry character.

Mystique and Omega Red will appear in *Marvel’s Wolverine*, but the actors playing them haven’t been revealed yet.
