Wolverine in Avengers? Hugh Jackman’s 8.5-hour just Wolverine breathing video sparks Doomsday rumours

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has always thrived on secrecy, surprises, and fan theories. But a recent development has truly set the internet ablaze: Hugh Jackman, the iconic Wolverine, might be part of Avengers: Doomsday—or so fans believe, thanks to a rather peculiar video.

In honour of National Stress Awareness Month, Marvel Studios released an unexpected and unusual video. It features Hugh Jackman as Wolverine—not slicing through enemies or snarling into battle, but simply… breathing.

The clip, posted on the studio’s official YouTube channel, is an 8.5-hour-long loop of Wolverine-style breathing. That’s right, no dialogue, no action, just a shirtless, muscular Jackman doing nothing but breathing for hours.

While this might sound like an unconventional way to promote mental health awareness, MCU fans saw it differently. To them, this was more than a quirky stress relief technique. It was a major clue.

“MCU fans are buzzing with excitement and theories again,” the article reads. “This time, it’s all about Hugh Jackman possibly joining the cast of Avengers: Doomsday.” The video triggered instant reactions online, as many viewers began speculating that the character’s return is imminent.

The fan frenzy was immediate and intense. One person commented, “I’m taking this as confirmation that Hugh will be in Doomsday.” Another fan joked, “They’re doing everything except announcing him in Avengers: Doomsday.” Some even speculated that Marvel had Jackman hidden away until they could bring out his “official character chair for the film.”

The current cast of Avengers: Doomsday already includes a powerhouse of talent. Names confirmed include Robert Downey Jr., Pedro Pascal, Chris Hemsworth, Florence Pugh, Paul Rudd, Sebastian Stan, Vanessa Kirby, and Channing Tatum. However, fans continue to crave more, particularly legends like Jackman.

“The funny and over-the-top reactions didn’t stop there,” the article continues. Because Wolverine and Deadpool are often paired in fan imaginations—thanks to the off-screen bromance between Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds—many couldn’t resist making jokes involving the two.

One popular comment read, “Definitely what Deadpool listens to while going to sleep.” Another added, “Are we all just waiting for Hugh and Ryan to finally admit they’re in a relationship?” Fans clearly adore the duo, both on and off screen, and would love to see them together in Doomsday.

Still, not everyone is ready to celebrate. One cautious fan noted, “If someone shows up in Doomsday, there’s a chance they might be killed off.” Another joked more darkly, “Maybe we should hope they’re in the one after.” This added a touch of realism to the otherwise enthusiastic fan theories, reminding everyone that Marvel has a reputation for shocking twists and emotional gut-punches.

So, is Hugh Jackman officially in Avengers: Doomsday? As of now, Marvel hasn’t confirmed anything. “Whether Hugh Jackman is actually in the film or not remains unconfirmed,” the article concludes. “But Marvel’s clever use of Easter eggs and cryptic content continues to keep fans guessing—and watching.”

One thing is certain: with Marvel’s track record for surprise reveals, and Avengers: Doomsday shaping up to be a major cinematic event, the speculation only adds to the hype. Whether it’s a red herring or a hidden teaser, the 8.5-hour breathing video has done its job. Fans are hooked.
