Who Plays Sabretooth In Deadpool & Wolverine

A crucial detail that further enhancesDeadpool & Wolverine’s Sabretooth is that he will be played by Tyler Mane, the same actor who originally took on the role in the Fox universe. This adds plenty more layers to the rematch between his villain and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, as it is reprising the exact same actor and character combinations that originally drew audiences in so many years ago.

Having Tyler Mane play Sabretooth inDeadpool & Wolverinealso serves some more practical purposes, as Mane obviously has experience in the role that ensures he’s a perfect candidate to bring Victor Creed to screens once more. Since thecast ofDeadpool & Wolverineseems so expansive, everyone in key roles needs to be able to embody the character they’ve playing expertly - and potentially in a smaller window of time, to keep things balanced - so choosing the actor who brought Sabretooth to screens for the first time to navigate his return serves as a practical move as well.
