New Deadpool & Wolverine Trailer Reveals First Official Look at Sabretooth

Marvel has officially unveiled supervillain Sabretooth in Deadpool & Wolverine via a new trailer that teases a rematch years in the making.

The new trailer, below, shows Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine chomping at the bit to stick his claws into long-running rival Sabretooth, with the Merc with a Mouth cheerleading from the sidelines.

Sabretooth, played by Tyler Mane, was of course one of the first mutants seen in the X-Men movies. In the 2000 X-Men film, Sabretooth was little more than a Magneto henchman who had a brief scrap with Wolverine in a snowy forest. Now he’s back in multiverse shenanigans over 20 years later — and he seems just as angry.

In the trailer, Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool references this lengthy gap before offering a few words of advice while pulling CGI swords out of Wolverine’s rapidly healing body. Wolverine and Sabretooth then sprint towards each other before the trailer ends.

Warning: The below contains potentially MAJOR SPOILERS for Deadpool & Wolverine. Seriously, you've been warned!

This trailer isn’t fans’ first look at Sabretooth in Deadpool & Wolverine, as leaked set photos offered a glimpse at the fight back in December last year. One image showed Deadpool carrying Sabretooth's severed head, suggesting Sabretooth's time in the MCU may be short-lived.

There’s plenty more speculation about what to expect from Deadpool & Wolverine, the only MCU movie of 2024, based on what we’ve seen so far. It comes out July 26.
