Avengers: Endgame director Joe Russo wants Wolverine to fight THIS MCU character; Find Out

Marvel fans have been waiting to hear Marvel Studios announce their plans for the X-Men in the Marvel Cinematic Universe phase 4. The superhero movies production house has now rights to the X-Men, Deadpool, Fantastic Four and many other Marvel characters which were previously owned by Fox. While we wait for the highly-anticipated announcement, Avengers: Endgame co-director Joe Russo has been teasing Wolverine like never before. The director had previously revealed that if he had the chance to work on an X-Men character, it would be Wolverine.

Now, the filmmaker has revealed that if given a chance he would like to see the X-Men character fight against Thanos from Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. The last time we saw a character take on Thanos single-handedly was Hulk, in the first few minutes of Avengers: Infinity War. The green superhero failed to take down the Mad Titan. However, the Russo Brother wants to see Wolverine fight Thanos.

Speaking to IGN’s Up At Noon show, the director played a game of "What If" where he was asked which X-Men character would Joe save from Thanos’ snap. He said, "I’d love to see a fiercely motivated Wolverine going up against Thanos." He further explained that the snap did not evenly halve a group. Take Hawkeye for an example. He survived while his family disintegrated by the snap. Joe added that while turning the remaining X-Men to dust would upset fans, "It’s not our job to give the people what they want, it’s to give them what they need.” Imagine the emotions piled up in Wolverine when he would meet Thanos and they wage war.

It took all the Avengers to come together and Iron Man's sacrifice to bring down the Mad Titan in Avengers: Endgame. We wonder how their fight would end. What do you think? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
