Jackman recently spoke with Radio Andy on Sirius XM and said that the film won’t exist within Logan’s universe, noting, “All because of this device they have in the Marvel world of moving around timelines, now, we can go back because it’s ‘science.’ [laughs] And so I don’t have to screw with the Logan timeline, which was important to me, and I think probably to the fans, too.”
