Jackman, returning as Wolverine, described the backstage frenzy. “I was right there watching the footage when the crowd began chanting, ‘One more time, one more time.’ I ran backstage and told the stage manager, ‘If you don’t play the footage again, they’re going to tear Hall H apart,'” Jackman recounted. The audience’s enthusiasm led to an impromptu replay of the film, adding to the event’s excitement.
The screening was a star-studded affair, with notable appearances from Dafne Keen, Jennifer Garner, Channing Tatum, Wesley Snipes, and Chris Evans, all reprising their roles as iconic characters from the Fox universe.
