Some fans wish for Jackman to play his iconic role should he really appear in the 2019 film. However, Disney has yet to complete its acquisition of 21st Century Fox, which owns the “X-Men” characters, the report said.
Meanwhile, other fans believed that his appearance in the “Avengers” movie is a hoax. They found out that Jackman’s films were transferred to the television section of his Wikipedia page.
The now-deleted entry for “Avengers: Endgame” showed Jackman will play another superhero, Deadpool. Because of this, some fans concluded that his upcoming appearance is nothing but a rumor caused by someone tampering with the actor’s Wikipedia page.

Okay, I've got it now.
All of Hugh Jackman's film roles have been moved to "Television" on his Wikipedia page. Which leads me to believe that someone's fucking with his Wiki to get Marvel fans to lose their minds.
This whole Hugh Jackman/Avengers: End Game thing's a hoax. https://t.co/Z3TGW0fx58
