Taron Egerton as Wolverine, opinions? : r/Wolverine
May 18, 2023 - Not at all a fan of the Egerton or Radcliffe fan castings. They’re both very boyish and I don’t buy them as intimidating. Dan’s a great actor, underrated in anything, in large part due to people only seeing him as Harry Potter. Taron is also great, especially in Black Bird, but neither have the look or the intimidation factor.
