X-Men Origins: Wolverine (aka The Original Deadpool & Wolverine?)

Join us for this latest installment of Cape or Cap, where we dive deep into X-Men Origins: Wolverine!

This week, we're kicking off our "Ryan & Hugh Road Trip" visiting all the films that we felt led to their big 2024 blockbuster together Deadpool & Wolverine but more importantly divided the fandom. First stop: X-Men Origins: Wolverine—the explosive prequel that explores the beginnings of everyone's favorite adamantium-infused mutant, Wolverine. We’ll break down the plot, dissect the characters, and tackle the big questions:

• Is this good storytelling?
• How does it compare to other films, comics, and larger narratives?
• What was happening behind the scenes during the creation of this production and after its release?
• And as always, is this a "cape" or a "cap"?
