Franchise Detours Episode 67: ‘Logan’ (feat. film critic Catherine Gonzales)

The claws are out and the adamantium is gleaming as we dive into the final chapter in the Wolverine trilogy. Hugh Jackman’s iconic portrayal of the mutant hero faced a bumpy road in his solo films. But was 2017’s Logan, featuring returning The Wolverine director James Mangold, worth the wait?

Fans wondered if they’d ever see the character’s true potential on the big screen. Fortunately, Jackman’s determination to bring Logan’s story to a fitting conclusion paid off. In Logan, we witness an aging, world-weary Wolverine confronting his past and grappling with his own mortality.

Film critic Catherine Gonzales joins us to dissect the gritty world of Logan. We’ll explore how it ties into the broader X-Men universe, the character’s journey throughout the franchise, and the film’s impact on the superhero genre. Moreover, we’ll weigh in on Wolverine’s return in Deadpool 3.

Join us as we celebrate the Wolverine’s final and most poignant outing, discussing the legacy of Logan and its place in cinematic history.
