The Entire Wolverine Story Finally Gets Explained

- Published: 29 November 2019
- Making sense of the X-Men timeline can be complicated, but when you focus just on Wolverine, the story gets a little easier to follow. From his bloody origin tale to his fateful final movie, here’s Wolverine’s cinematic story explained.
The first chronological glimpse we get of the boy who grows up to become Wolverine is in 2009's X-Men Origins: Wolverine, where we learn that his name isn't Logan at all. It's James Howlett. Logan is actually the surname of the man who murders James' father in 1845, which causes James' mutation to activate, pushing bone claws out from between his knuckles. Enraged, James kills Logan, only to almost immediately learn that the man was actually his biological father.
Young James flees his home along with his half-brother, Victor Creed, who possesses the same mutant healing ability as James. That healing factor not only makes the boys practically impossible to kill, but also slows their aging, keeping them looking relatively youthful as they fight side by side through every major war over the next hundred years. In 2013's The Wolverine, we see that he spent some of this time in a Japanese POW camp in 1945. While he's there, James saves the life of Japanese officer Ichirō Yashida from the bombing of Nagasaki, an event which will prove important many years later.
In X-Men: First Class, Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr, soon to be known as Professor X and Magneto, find themselves up against Nazi mutant Sebastian Shaw and his team of superpowered henchmen. Realizing they'll need some help to bring Shaw down, the duo uses Cerebro to find new mutants and form a team of their own, so in a zippy montage set in 1962, they recruit a handful of young mutants who wind up as the, well, first class of X-Men.
Not everyone is eager to join up, though. When Erik and Charles walk into a bar, a cigar-smoking James Howlett tells them that he's not interested, using some language that insured the movie would be a hard PG-13. Keep watching the video to see the entire Wolverine story finally gets explained!

Which movie with Wolverine do you think is the best?
Wolverine origins or logan
The wolverine
The one in Japan is the best
LOGAN
@jerinho LOL :)
When he goes back in time, to help Charles become who he is. Xmen days of future past
Hugh jackman has been my favourite actor since van hell sing, still a great actor!
So this is what happens when you live for more than two hundred years
LOGAN VAI
:)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
I cried so fucking hard when Wolvy died at the end of Logan. I’m ashamed to say the actual deaths of relatives never even managed to illicit such an outpouring of tears...except when my childhood dog Kasha died, nothing can match how much I cried when that happened...but she lived til 17 1/2 so I can’t ask for much more than that...even tho I’d love to have been able to give her that nifty healing factor
Anyway, point is (sheesh went on one helluva tangent there lol) Logan was by far and away the best x men related film and by a wide margin
Charles killed X-Men??? what??😨😨
In comics wolverine killed all his allied mutants becoz he was being brainwash.
Wolverine=Hugh Jackman❗️
Then who the heck is sabortooths father?
Logan was easily the best movie in the X-men series. And the only one I could take seriously. The Wolverine (2013) would be a runner up.
Just one more X-men movie with Hugh Jackman 🙏🏻🙏🏻
0:47
This video literally blew my mind. All those movies. How did they do it? Somehow it all came together.
And then Deadpool saved him 🤔
After huge Jackman only Karl Urban is perfect for logan
hugh jackman should continue making wolverine movies
A HUGE BUZZ KILL ENDING. :( :( :(
Charles's xavier dies 2 times first in xmen 3?

I know in Logan it was mentioned the rest of the X Men were dead ,but I was wondering what happened.
I didn't know that Professor X had killed the rest of the X-Men with his powers I totally missed that part in the movie.
You JUST KNOW know they going to make a movie out of that storyline though!💰
Gets explained????? Where in the video you explained what everyone was confused about? Like how he got admantium claws back, how he got capture. You basically told what everyone already knew.
The witches and wizards of Harry potter are far scarier and should be destroyed.
What’s the sequence? Can somebody give the movie sequence. Thanks!
Wait, if Logan already had metal claws why did he need that atamantium procedure done?
You forgot you forgot wolverine in the second fc movie
Wow , thats nice explanation , now please someone please list all the movies in same chronological ordered as explained .
Respect to Hugh Jackman. You Sir are a legend.
This video does a pretty good job explaining Wolverine's timeline. Lots of people still don't know that Wolverine's death was prophesized in The Wolverine. Even though they never make it clear, I believe Logan takes place in the same timeline as Days of Future Past several years after Wolverine regains his memories.
How is Xavier alive?
I could never be so thankful.
They couldn't figure out the anti gravity hair though in X24
"Do you know what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightning?
Same thing that happens to everything else"
10% chance of death and some badass scars?
Wolverine can't die.. Not a fan of the last one.. so because he lives for two centuries of whatever he got old and his power stopped working because it a man to him Wolverine's power prevents disease anything like that he doesn't age you stopped aging at the age of 35 I think it was I hate how they Twisted Logan round and how you got like poison from them antium that's crazy if you look up his stats that would never happen but I guess it's the movies and I got to change it over to somebody else but not a fan of Logan
Great video!
How is this an explanation. Complete 10 min waste.
can't we just resurrect logan and have hugh jackman play him until he dies? :( .... i know wolverine will lijkely return but not played by jackman.....hugh jackman owned that role hands down
👀
NightCrawler opening X2 was Epic...
But wolverine never died, because there is a lot of timeline. Especially that maybe in this timeline that wolverine died someone from another timeline rivive him or help him to live again
There is a cut scene from Logan which has Deadpool come to Logan’s grave.
But... LOGAN movie isn’t supposed it happens in another universe/world?? I think the film director said that
Its 2 late for explanation
Wait 1 M views
what about that short clip where deadpool find his grave?
Definitely don't check out my amature page ... It's not ok thanks. xx
Then Deadpool shows up to Logan’s gravesite lol
Wow thx i was behind on all xman movies.
No one in the world can replace hugh Jackman
I interpret that "heart in his hand" prophecy differently. I think Yukio was seeing a vision of later in that same movie when Logan was removing that mechanical parasite thing from his own heart. He literally had his own heart in his hand, there was blood everywhere and his heart stopped for quite a while afterwards.
Sweeeeet. Thank you.
