- Marvel's Wolverine voice actor Liam McIntyre says Logan doesn't know "where his rage comes from".
- The Spartacus actor notes that Logan is dealing with amnesia in Insomniac's upcoming title.
- However, he admits that Logan’s “bottomless rage” is sometimes necessary to protect other mutants.
Marvel’s Wolverine voice actor Liam McIntyre has opened up about Logan’s emotional journey in the game in a now-deleted interview with Deadline. According to McIntyre, Logan is dealing with amnesia in Marvel’s Wolverine, and “He doesn’t know why he feels the way he feels or where this rage comes from a lot of the time.”
Reddit user KekanKok shared the deleted Marvel’s Wolverine interview on the GamingLeaksandRumors subreddit, expanding on how McIntyre approached a “younger” version of the roughly 200-year-old Marvel legend.
The Deadline interview explains that Marvel’s Wolverine begins with Logan having lost most of his memory. Naturally, he doesn’t understand where his rage stems from. As seen in Marvel’s Wolverine story trailer, the game will feature memory rooms to help Logan regain pieces of his memory.
The Marvel’s Wolverine voice actor notes that Logan’s uncertainty about his personality and memories adds humanity to his character, allowing the game to showcase that “beneath the claws and healing factor is a character struggling with the question of who he is supposed to be.”
Of course, the actor also admits that Logan’s “bottomless rage” in Marvel’s Wolverine is necessary to prove a point, saying, “Logan wants to protect people who cannot protect themselves, and perhaps most importantly, he doesn’t particularly like the person he can become when that rage takes over.”
Insomniac and Sony have been promoting Wolverine in gameplay trailers as someone who isn’t exactly a hero with the “I ain’t no hero. I’m Wolverine” tagline. But McIntyre says Logan is actively trying to become a better person and break free from the feral nature that has defined him in the upcoming action-adventure title.
The Spartacus actor draws comparisons with Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine portrayal, admitting that it isn’t his “shoes to fill”, and concluding the Deadline interview with a lingering question: “When you put that controller down, what do you feel? Are you going to feel something? Is it going to mean something?”
Marvel’s Wolverine releases in just over a month, on September 15, 2026, exclusively on PlayStation 5 consoles.
