So here is my second Wolverine film idea and cast. Now the second film would be the Weapon X storyline because, let's face it was not done right in X Men Origins. This was part of last year's Wolverine Fan Cast, but there will be changes, not to mention in Endgame. Remember how Captain America went back in time to be with Peggy after returning the infinity stones? That means we could see Cap in this film depending if Chris Evans would be down to come back. The MCU won't be the same without him and RDJ. That's another reason why I'm not excited for Phase 4. Still, I am excited for Spiderman, Black Panther, Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Widow, Falcon and Winter Soldier, Loki, What If, Fantastic Four Reboot, and X Men Reboot.
Now the Weapon X is a fan favorite Wolverine Storyline, and it has been adapted before but not at its best, though. In the second movie, we would see Wolverine get the adamantium, and now it's likely the adamantium will be from Wakanda. Then it's expected the Super Soldier serum will be involved too, which is how Wolverine gets more powerful. Also, in this film, we would see Wolverine in berserker mode, visit him at his best and lose his memories and past to the weapon x program. Also, a heartbreaking ending to his relationship with him and Silverfox and his meeting his future arch-enemy Sabertooth.

The film would be in the 60s during the Civil Rights Movement, The Vietnam War, and the Cold War. Weapon X is a secret government project creating super-powered beings like mutants into the military. They have mostly tested on mutants turning them into weapons with torture and many more horrible things. Team X is a Black Ops team put together by Weapon X to take out enemies of the United States. However, SHIELD and many others think Weapon X is actually torturing people just to create their own soldiers and have them enslaved, bending on just killing whatever they are told. In the film, Wolverine still lives in Canada and lives with Silverfox. They are happy together, and Wolverine is about to pop the question if she mars until Sabertooth comes along and he kills Silverfox, and Wolverine hunts him down. They fight, and Sabertooth is working for Weapon X and is told to get Wolverine for the Weapon X Project. Once Wolverine gets the adamantium inside of him, The Professor, aka Truett Hudson, wipes out his past memories and doesn't know who he is. I'll explain more after I show my fan cast in the film.
Here's my fan cast for the second Wolverine film.
Scott Eastwood as James Logan Howlett/Wolverine
The film is set sixty years after WW1, and Wolverine hasn't aged a day and happily lives with Silverfox until she gets killed by Sabertooth sent by Weapon X to recruit Wolverine. Wolverine and Sabertooth fight, but Sabertooth wins, and Wolverine is taken to Weapon X and, given the adamantium, becomes more violent and more powerful. Wolverine loses his memories due to the Weapon X experiments caused by the Professor, so he has forgotten everything about his past, Rose O'Hara, Silverfox, Dog, The Invaders, and his own name. Wolverine joins Team X, but he later sees that he doesn't want to be part of it anymore. He escapes Weapon X. He meets Dum Dum Dugan at first in the film, and they become friends, but after he loses his memories, he tries to attack Dugan until Captain America shows up and stops him. Wolverine meets Cap and his wife, Peggy Carter. They believe that Weapon X is performing horrible experiments on innocent people and creating an army of killing machines. Wolverine tells them everything about Weapon X, he joins them, and he gets his iconic suit in this film designed by SHIELD. We would see Wolverine struggling to remember his past, but he decides to move forward with his life and live by his new name Logan and only thinks of the future.
Tayna Beatty as Silverfox
Silverfox has a more significant role in the next film. She lives with Wolverine, and they both have a happy life together until Sabertooth comes and kills her. Like many comic book readers and people who watch the X Men TV series or films, we know Silverfox isn't dead. She's part of Weapon X, too, and she forgets who Wolverine is, and so does he, but it will end with the two fighting and it ends with her death but as she dies he remembers her and she does as well.
Travis Fimmel as Victor Creed/Sabertooth
Now Sabertooth would be the main villain of the film, and this is a character that needs to get done right. I liked Liv Tyler as Sabertooth, but I felt the character was weak, and the texture was just forgotten in later films. In this film, Sabertooth is getting his moment to shine as this guy is a killing machine, and he is part of Weapon X. He's also part of Team X, and he views Wolverine as a rival. It's also revealed he has a healing factor and a slow aging body. Also, we would see Sabertooth's origin, and let me tell you, he had a horrible life, too, being locked up in a basement by his father. Later in the film, Sabertooth, Omega Red, and Lady Deathstrike are the ones of Team X who are still part of Weapon, and all three of them want to kill Wolverine. The film would have an epic fight between Wolverine and Sabertooth and would end with Sabertooth being defeated and locked away by SHIELD. Sabertooth would return in a future X Men film, being part of the Brotherhood of Mutants.
Matthias Schweighofer as Christoph Nord/Maverick
Christoph Nord, aka Maverick, is a mutant from Germany and is part of the Weapon X program. Son of a HYDRA and nazi Agent, Christoph swore to atone for his father's horrible crimes and joined the Weapon X program. Christoph changed his name to David North and was named Maverick. He's also part of Team X but later goes against them after he begins to see what the Weapon X's true purpose is and remembers his vow to atone for his father's crimes. In the end, he joins SHIELD and takes them Agent Zero.
Yuri Kolokolinkov as Omega Red
Omega Red is a mutant from Russia recruited by the Weapon X program; in his past life, Omega Red was a serial killer locked away in a solid prison. At one point, the Russians tried to recreate the Super Soldier serum, and the KGB had Omega Red as their first test subject, but it didn't turn out the way they planned. Omega Red killed everyone and escaped. He was captured by Team X and made a member of the team. Afterward, he grew an intense hatred for Wolverine the most as he was the one defeated and got him in Weapon X. Omega Red would be killed in the end by Captain America and John Wraith, but John would die in the fight, though.
Jesskia Van as Yuriko Oyama/Lady Deathstrike
Lady Deathstrike is a mutant from Japan. She had an abusive father who was a former Japanese pilot during WW2. After years of abuse, she unlocked her mutant powers and killed her father; she ran away and was recruited by Professor Truett Hudson to join Weapon X and make her more powerful. She joins Team X, and she, along with Sabertooth and Omega Red, are the only ones who remind on Weapon X.
Andre Holland as John Wraith/Kestrel
John Wraith is a mutant who can teleport anywhere, and he is a member of Team X. John was recruited by the Weapon X program. He became friends with Wolverine, Silverfox, and Maverick. Near the end, John sides with Wolverine to take down Weapon X, and he dies in the future, taking out Omega Red. Unlike X Men Origins, where he was just killed by Sabertooth just like that, in this, he dies taking out Omega Red like a champ.
Jackie Earl Haley as The Professor/Truett Hudson
Truett Hudson, aka The Professor, is head of the Weapon X Program, and he is the one who gives the adamantium to Wolverine. He also wiped out Wolverine's memories along with Silverfox, and he's previously done it to Sabertooth, Maverick, Omega Red, Lady Deathstrike, and Wraith. Truett Hudson actually was the one who started the Weapon X program, which was initially called Weapon Plus but changed to Weapon X. The Professor's goal was to create a new group of super-soldiers that would serve as black ops for the government. He was given complete control of the program, but he only uses mutants because he believes mutants should be weapons for the government, and his secret motive was to create his own army. The Professor would be the secondary villain of the film. He is killed in the end by Wolverine.
Graham McTavish as Abraham Cornelius
Abraham Cornelius is one of the creators of the Weapon X program. He gives Wolverine the adamantium. His true motivation is to use the Weapon X program to create his own group of soldiers to take control of the government and takedown SHIELD, who are suspicious of Weapon X. Abraham is shown to be anti-mutant believes mutants should be used as weapons and not treated as people. He is killed in the end by Silverfox.
Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America
After Endgame, Steve did go back in time and stay with Peggy, so yeah, we're never going to see Cap and Wolverine together in the modern timeline. So this the closes, we will get to a Captain America and Wolverine team-up. Also, by the 60s, Steve would be in his late 30s or early 40s, so he can still be Cap. Now I don't know if Chris would ever come back, but he has said he's down to come back if anything comes up. So Cap's role is that he and Peggy suspect the Weapon X Program is doing something wrong, and Cap learns they are using what's left of the super-soldier serum to create more super-soldiers, but they are making them into enslaved people. Captain America and Wolverine fight but the two in the end team up to take down Weapon X, and Cap gives Wolverine his suit designed by SHIELD to help Wolverine. Also, at the end of the film, since this Cap is from the future, he offers Wolverine a card that says Logan/Wolverine Avenger. So Cap recruits Wolverine to the Avengers even before the Avengers formed.
Haley Atwell as Agent Peggy Carter Rogers
Peggy Carter would return now married to Steve Rogers and they have two kids a son named James Michael Rogers (Named after Bucky and Peggy's Brother Michael) and a daughter named Sarah Amanda Rogers (Named after both Steve and Peggy's mothers) She and Steve are both agents of SHIELD and they are sign to investigate Weapon X because of strange active there as well rumours of them use cruel methods on mutants and turning living people as weapons of war.
Neal McDonough as Dum Dum Dugan
Dum Dum Dugan would be back and him and Wolverine have a long history with each other in the comics. Dugan is now retired from the Howling Commandos and now works for SHIELD. He meets Wolverine at a bar and two of them hit it off and become pals but after Wolverine looses his memories he almost tries to kill Dugan but Cap saves him. Dugan is also putting together a new organization called SWORD that will work with SHIELD but will deal with other major threats.
Now thats my cast for my second Wolverine film and now here are my ideas for the film
10. Learn from the mistakes of X Men Origins Wolverine.
Now we all hate X Men Origins Wolverine it is one of the worst X Men films out there. They butchered the Weapon X Storyline, they ruined Gambit and Deadpool, and it was just full bad writing. If Marvel does the Weapon X storyline they need to get it done right and learn from the mistakes from X Men Origins Wolverine.
9. Don't Waste Team X or its members.
Now this one thing a lot of fans hated was Team X was in X Men Origins Wolverine brought into the film just to kill them off and waste them. Don't even get me started on Deadpool and Gambit. Now in the film Team X plays a bigger role in the film we have more screen time with them and we would see them fight as team but they don't get along. Team X rooster is Wolverine (Who does get called Subject X), Sabertooth, Silverfox, Maverick, Wraith, Lady Deathstrike, and later Omega Red. This team none of them are fond each other but by the end when Wolverine leaves Team X so does Wraith and Maverick. Silverfox, Sabertooth, Lady Deathstrike, and Omega Red remain but in the end they are defeated but not before Silverfox redeems herself before she dies. In this film Team X every character would get a moment to shine in the film.
8. Give us a Wolverine and Captain America Team Up and reveal some shocking stuff.
Now this something many fans wanted to see is a Captain America and Wolverine team up movie. Now I think Chris will likely not comeback but hey anything is possible and since the second film is set in the 60s Steve Rogers can still be Captain America and it would make sense to have SHIELD and Captain America involved with the Weapon X. Now in the comics its been revealed that Project Rebirth is what started Weapon Plus and they could add this into the film were we learn that Captain America is the creator of Wolverine and he inspired the Weapon X program. Except unlike how Cap got his powers, people mostly mutants are tortured and go through so much horror to get their powers.
7. Give us a proper Sabertooth.
Now Sabertooth is another X Men character that has not been right or has been wasted or forgotten by Fox's X Men Series. Now this version is more like the comics and also I would say look at Kilmonger and Heath Ledger's Joker for inspiration for this character. Sabertooth in the film he's already part of Weapon X and he wants the adamatain in him but it's given to Wolverine instead. Sabertooth kills Silverfox but we learned he didn't she was taken to Weapon X and in the film we do see Sabertooth's origin and its pretty messed up. Sabertooth is one X Men Villain that needs to get his moment to shine and be an evil bad ass who's actually really cool. Not to mention him and Wolverine hate each other to passion even after their memories are wiped they still hate each other.
6. Give us an epic fight between Wolverine and Sabertooth
Now these two characters have one of biggest rivalry out of all marvel characters. Wolverine and Sabertooth need to have a really good epic battle to the death and its bloody and even gory too. These two need to have a great fight scene that will make every Wolverine fan happy.
5. Give us tragic romance ending to Wolverine and Silverfox relationship.
Now as many have read the comics or watch the shows, this film would end the relationship between Wolverine and Silverfox. It's very tragic because they were living a happy life until Sabertooth came and killed Silverfox but he didn't and Wolverine try to kill him but he lost. Wolverine and Silverfox get recruited to the Weapon X Program and they both have their memories wiped out. When they see each other they don't remember each other and sadly by the end they do start to remember each other but Silverfox dies redeeming herself because she's very loyal to the Professor at first but then sees what he's actually doing it. She dies in the end in Wolverine's arms for real this time and they both remember each and thats another sad ending. Wolverine's got a tough love life and also there is a tree at their home that Wolverine craved James and Fox with a heart shape craved around their names.
4. Let's see Wolverine go full berserk.
Now this is something we got to see when Wolverine escapes Weapon X you see him go berserk on anyone who's trying to stop him. Wolverine would go full killing machine in this film until he escapes Weapon X and later is stop by Cap.
3. Wolverine finally wears his iconic costume.
(Google Image)
Yes, the costume would be in the film and he gets it from SHIELD after he joins Cap, Peggy, and Dugan. The costume would be his brown and yellow outfit, at first he doesn't know what to think of it but when he tries on it the mask helps enhances his senses and the suit also protects body from bullets and blades. The suit is also design by Captain America himself.
2. Set up Wolverine's children like his sons Daken and Jimmy and daughter Laura.
Now we all love Daken and Jimmy but they never made their big film debut but hey we got Laura in Logan. I think it's time to interduce Wolverine's sons Daken is Wolverine's son from his Japanese wife from WW2 and Jimmy is Wolverine's son from Magda Magneto's wife from the Ultimate Universe. I still want to see Laura though in the MCU but I really want to see Wolverine's sons in future films too and they are fan favourites as well. Like for a mid credit scene we get a scene of Wolverine going to Japan and one is a professor of the Weapon X Program taking some Wolverine's blood and planning to create a clone of him and its called X 23. For Daken and Jimmy it's applied after Weapon X and Silverfox's death he travel around the world and he met Mariko Yashida, Japanese wife and that around the 2000s or 90s he met Magda and one night stand with her which resulted in Jimmy.
1. Set up Wolverine to join the X Men and the Avengers.
Now I have strongly suggested that Wolverine shouldn't be in the X Men film or tv series till third film or third season. Because the X Men films need to be more about the X Men and the X Men that weren't at their best in Fox's films. Now I would have the ending of the second film would have Cap give Wolverine a card in a small envelop and when Wolverine's is leaving he opens it and the card says Logan/Wolverine Avenger. Wolverine gets an Avengers even before the Avengers are formed because Cap went back in time remember in Endgame so he likely knew about the future so he gives Wolverine a card to set him up to be an Avenger.
Now for the X Men, Wolverine does save mutant children from Weapon X and it's revealed that one of them is Xavier and that is the first meeting of Wolverine and Xavier which is why years later Xavier would remember Wolverine as the man who saved him from Weapon X and wants to recruit him to the X Men and return the favour for saving him from Weapon X.
So's that my fan cast and ideas for my sequel Wolverine film let me know what you think? Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts on my second Wolverine Movie Fan Cast and Ideas.
