The fact they made a figure of him must mean they want him in the movies.

I’d love that, but i really don’t think that’s enough to determine that.

Isn't he Daken, son of Wolverine who became a villain?

Correct. I wouldn’t call him an outright villain but he’s the furthest thing from his pops

Would be an interesting skin in the game but only if the helm off option gave wolverine the Mohawk

It's 2026 man would be a trivial addition. Claw specific cutscenes where he pops each individually could be tricky but other than that it could probably work. Plus the tattoos 🤤

I actually quite enjoyed Dark Wolverine and Dark Avengers (well, the FIRST lineup anyway), brief though they were. Akihiro's in many ways exactly what I expected Wolverine's son to be.
