With the announcement of Insomniac Games,’ Marvel’s Wolverine fans are wondering who will voice Weapon X. The most iconic portrayal of Wolverine so far has been by Hugh Jackman, and that’s the actor most associate with the hero. So, given that the Wolverine game will be a major PS5 exclusive (though it might be a while until it comes out), will Sony pull out all the stops and have Hugh Jackman be the voice actor in Insomniac’s Wolverine?
Who will be Wolverine’s voice actor in the Insomniac game?
Though Hugh Jackman did provide the voice for Wolverine in X-Men Origins: Wolverine and X-Men: The Official Game, it’s been 12 years since he has acted in a game. So, it’s unlikely Hugh Jackman will be the voice actor for Wolverine in Insomniac’s game.
The most likely candidate for Wolverine’s voice actor in Insomniac’s Wolverine is Steve Blum. He’s been Logan’s voice across multiple productions and media formats for almost 20 years. So far, Blum has played Wolverine in:
- X-Men Legends
- X-Men Legends 2: Rise Of Apocalypse
- Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
- Spider-Man: Web of Shadows
- Wolverine and the X-Men
- Hulk Vs.
- The Super Hero Squad Show
- Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2
- Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Video Game
- The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes
- Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Infinity Gauntlet
- Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
- Marvel Super Hero Squad Online
- X-Men: Destiny
- X-Men (Marvel Anime)
- Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
- Marvel Super Hero Squad: Comic Combat
- Marvel Mashup: Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends
- Ultimate Spider-Man
- Marvel Super Heroes 4D
- The Avengers: Battle for Earth
- Marvel Heroes
- Deadpool
- Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.
- Lego Marvel Super Heroes
- Lego Marvel Super Heroes: Maximum Overload
- Marvel Disk Wars: The Avengers
- Fortnite Marvel Powers United VR
- Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order
Given how many times Blum has voiced Wolverine, it’s highly likely Insomniac will reach out to him for its game.
