Concept Art Reveals Alternate Designs For Henry Cavill’s Wolverine in DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE — GeekTyrant
Here’s another piece of concept art for Deadpool & Wolverine and this one reveals some alternated designs for Henry Cavill’s Wolverine cameo, aka The Cavillrine.
The art was shared by concept artist Wesley Burt on X, and he said: “This was a quite a fun one when it landed in my hands to do some concept-ing, more in the upcoming artbook for Deadpool & Wolverine.”
This was a fun cameo, one that fans would’ve liked to have seen more of. So, it’s cool that Cavill actually agreed to do it!
Director Shawn Levy previously talked about former Superman actor Henry Cavill, saying that the actor got sick because of having to smoke Wolverine’s cigar… all day on set.
The filmmaker said: “He kept that cigar lit and in his mouth for the entirety of the shoot day. I remember hearing the next day that Henry was sick to his stomach because he had been inhaling cigar smoke for eight hours straight, but never once did he waver.”
Levy also talked about Cavill’s Wolverine cameo in another interview with Variety, saying: “If we’re going to talk about him, we must call him by his actual credited name, the Cavillerine, which Ryan coined.
“I knew it was undeniable as soon as Ryan came up with that term. He said ‘yes’ right away because he knew it would be subversive and playful.
“It was also with a lot of affection for him and his body of work, and playing with his legacy as a DC hero now that he’s appearing as a variant of a Marvel hero.”
