Will Hugh Jackman Back Out From ‘Wolverine 3’? Actor Won't Sign Off Until The Script Is Perfect

Hugh Jackman revealed that "Wolverine 3" will have an "Old Man Logan" storyline a few months ago.

This was confirmed by Patrick Stewart, who will be reprising his role as Charles Xavier or more known as Professor X, in the upcoming sequel.

"I'm really looking forward to Hugh Jackman getting old," the 75-year-old English actor said. "You know, damn him. He looks so great! So I'm hoping to see him covered in prosthetics, you know? And then he'll make me look better if that's the case," he added.

Since "Wolverine 3" will be the last film of Hugh Jackman as Logan, many fans are eager to find out the status of the movie. During a recent interview with Collider, the 46-year-old actor revealed that they are halfway through the script.

"I'll be really honest with you, the actual script in its full form we're up to about Page 60. Obviously there's a treatment, so it's not fully done yet, we're not fully there," he said.

The Aussie heartthrob also talked about t he special relationship of Wolverine to Professor X.

"Patrick does figure in it that's for sure. I think it's a really important relationship but I want to see signs of that quasi-father/son sort of relationship that has not been seen before, and sides of particularly Professor X that have not been seen before. So we have some really, really cool ideas," he explained.

Although Hugh Jackman confirmed that he will be doing "Wolverine 3," there's still a chance that he will back out. According to the website, the actor won't officially sign off if he doesn't like the script since this will be the last time that he's portray the iconic mutant. 

"I'm saying 'but' and I'm sounding a little cagey because this is the last time I'm playing him, and I have just made the commitment to myself, really, and told everyone that until that script is perfect, until it is that perfect way to sign out, I'm not gonna start shooting," he said.

Hugh Jackman revealed that if the script turns out right, then they will start shooting "Wolverine 3" next year since he is already training and preparing both mentally and physically for the role.
