One of Wolverine’s best suits in Deadpool and Wolverine cost $100,000 to make despite being on screen for all of 10 seconds
There was a whole bunch of [variants]. One of the storyboard artists, he was a huge comic book fan and he gave us a list of 10 of them… There were so many,” editor Dean Zimmerman told ComicBookMovie.com’s Josh Wilding.
Zimmerman, though, pointed to “time and budget issues” as a contributing factor behind why we didn’t get the unnamed Wolverine variants (Deadpool and Wolverine’s production was affected in 2023 by the actor and writer strikes).
Here’s a perfect example: that brown and tan [suit], we spent about $100,000 building that. They’re expensive… We had to get a little economical with what we could come up with and do. ‘Hugh, can you take your shirt off and be bolted to a cross? Yeah, I can do that. No problem.’… ‘Can you be an old man? Sure.'”
