7 actors who could replace Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in the MCU
By Cody Schultz
Tyler Hoechlin
Tyler Hoechlin would be a perfect selection for the role of Wolverine for many reasons, even if it might be an unexpected choice. Throughout his career, Hoechlin has demonstrated his acting range and physical prowess in various roles, making him a strong candidate to take on the iconic character.
One of Hoechlin’s most notable performances was his role as Derek Hale in Teen Wolf. Playing a werewolf required him to be in peak physical condition, and Hoechlin delivered with his intense and brooding portrayal of the character. He brought a depth and vulnerability to Derek that made him a fan favorite, and his performance was a key part of the show’s success.
Hoechlin has also shown his ability to play iconic superheroes, having taken on the role of Superman in the CW’s Arrowverse. He perfectly embodied the character’s strength, bravery, and compassion, while also bringing his own unique interpretation to the role.
As Wolverine, Hoechlin would be able to bring a similar level of intensity and physicality to the character. His experience in playing a werewolf and a superhero demonstrate his ability to handle the physical demands of the role, while his acting talent would allow him to bring depth and complexity to the character.
With his time as Superman nearing a possible end, we’d love to see Hoechlin join the MCU and the role of Wolverine be an amazing opportunity for him to make the jump from DC to Marvel — and a major win for fans!
