A.D. had a tweet blow up in nerd circles over the last couple of days. He noticed Hugh Jackman posting some stuff on Instagram that definitely hints at the possibility of him returning as Wolverine in a Marvel Studios project. A.D., like many fans, immediately started asking questions. Hugh Jackman posting Wolverine artwork? And then a picture of himself with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige? What could it all mean? Would he really want to do it? Is he too old?
Jackman played Wolverine from 2000's
X-Men to 2017's
Logan, and was supposedly done playing his iconic mutant character. With Marvel Studios getting the X-Men movie rights back after parent company Disney acquired Twentieth Century Fox, most fans have been assuming that Wolverine (and the rest of the X-Men) would be recast for a new series of X-Men films. That's probably still what's going to happen, but there are a couple of interesting angles this story could take.
