Will Hugh Jackman Help the Next Actor Who Plays Wolverine?

It's hard to imagine anyone but Hugh Jackman playing Wolverine. Jackman, 57, debuted as the beloved X-Men character in 2000. He then returned in nine more movies.

He revealed whether he'll be involved when it's time to step away from the mutant character, and another person wears the Adamantium claws.

    Hugh Jackman Won't Help the Next Wolverine Actor

    In 2000, Jackman hit it big when he scored the role of Wolverine in X-Men. Since then, he's starred in six X-Men movies as the haunted mutant hero, including July's box office smash, The Wolverine.

    Project Big Screen asked Jackman if he would help the next person who takes on the role. His knowledge from over 25 years of playing the character would be invaluable.

    "I’m 57. I’m doing it till I’m 90," the actor said first. "So, you know, I’ll do a little time capsule for them. I’m not going to say anything to whoever plays him, ’cause no one said anything to me, which I really am thrilled about."

    The Broadway star continued with honesty about his lack of knowledge going into the first movie. "And I had not read the comics, so I was just coming to it fresh," the Oscar nominee said. "And I learned a lot over the years. Of course, I’ve got my own take, but it must be melding in with me in some way. I hope someone just comes in and does whatever the f--k they want and makes it their own."

    Who Is Writing and Directing the 'X-Men' Reboot?

    Jake Schreier is set to direct the X-Men reboot to integrate them into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The first movie will be released after Avengers: Secret Wars in 2028, according to Collider. Schreier already showed off his superhero chops directing Thunderbolts*.

    Lee Sung Jin, who created Netflix's Beef, and The Bear co-showrunner Joanna Calo are writing the script for the movie. Schreier, 44, explained why they're the best fit for the job.

    "When you go back and read X-Men [comics], there's ideology but also interpersonal drama, almost of a soap opera quality," he said. "Having writers who understand both how to drive ideology from personal stakes, if we get that right, that's what will feel most honest to what X-Men can be."

    Technically, The Fantastic Four: First Steps starring Vanessa Kirby, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, was the newest return of mutants to the cinematic universe. Its post-credit scene jumps forward four years, and Sue Storm gets a book to read to her toddler son. She sees Doctor Doom kneeling in front of her boy.

    There is a good chance Jackman will be involved with the future X-Men movies since there is no announcement of him stopping to play Wolverine. Deadpool & Wolverine already played with the character interacting with familiar and new X-Men characters through the multiverse.

    Tyler Mane played Sabertooth in the 2024 movie. Liev Schreiber previously played the same character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. There is still time to see which actors will step into the familiar roles that involve Wolverine.
