Quan, who joined the MCU with his role as Ourobros 'O.B.' in the second season of Loki, previously worked with Jackman as a stunt coordinator for the first X-Men film back in 2000, but they have now reunited after Marvel boss Kevin Feige received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Jackman took to Instagram to share a photo of the pair with a heartfelt voice note, saying: "One of the many cool things about the [Wolverine] movie being released is so many moments are happening that are making me appreciate the 25 years that I've been playing Wolverine.

"And so the other day at the Walk of Fame induction ceremony for Kevin Feigy, I saw Ke Huy Kwan and of course, he won an Oscar recently [for Everything Everywhere All at Once] and his story is incredible, and his career is incredible.

"We saw each other and embraced because we worked together on X-Men. He was in the stunt team at the time working on that movie. First of all, he's incredible and that team was incredible and that's really where I learned a lot about how to do action movies and how to do stunts and it was just really cool to see him again and to reconnect."

Deadpool & Wolverine, which also stars Emma Corrin as the main villain, has proved to be a critical and commercial success thus far, with the foul-mouthed film already passing $650m at the global box office.

Deadpool & Wolverine is in cinemas now.
