    Wolverine

    Character » Wolverine appears in 16088 issues.

    A long-lived mutant with the rage of a beast and the soul of a Samurai, James "Logan" Howlett's once mysterious past is filled with blood, war, and betrayal. Possessing an accelerated healing factor, keenly enhanced senses, and bone claws in each hand (along with his skeleton) that are coated in adamantium; Wolverine is, without question, the ultimate weapon.

    What would you do if Hugh Jackman wasnt Wolverine anymore?

    Honestly, I'm not a fan of Hugh Jackman in the slightest and I'd love to see somebody else fill Wolverine's booties.

    It would suck because I think him as wolverine is probably the best thing about all the xmen movies, but james marsden is pretty cool as cyclops except yeah he is dead.

    I think Hugh Jackmans performance of Wolverine was far too... Human. Ya know? Plus he's too tall. So yea, I'd be interested.

    I'd accept that Hugh can't play Wolverine forever. I'd say he's got one more movie in him (unless they wanna do a Wolverine: The End movie) then we'll just have to accept new actors and a fresh restart.

    I wouldn't do anything, I like Jackman but eventually they'll replace him and that won't be such a big problem, comics change their writers and artists all the time so there's no reason not to do the same with movies.

    I would hope that they found a shorter guy that looked like Hugh Jackman, but of course they would have to make a new Wolverine movie just like they are with Spiderman and Fantastic Four and have already done with Hulk and Punisher, revamp city!!!!!

    Be upset because I don't like actor swaps. TDK and Iron Man 2. Even if they are for the better, it just irks me a little. 
     
    But then I'd hope they find someone who looks more like Wolverine. Short, stocky, hairy...

    Be really quite glad. Last stand and Origins just really soured his interpretation of the character for me. There are alot of other people out there who can pull off the built, hairy and badass lcharacter. Especially with the recent influx of new actors who seem to be bringing back the appeal of the grizzled action hero that we havn't seen in awhile. I'm sure theres another guy out there who can do what Jackman has and better, because lets be honest, you can act as a badass and then walk off the set and go to your 'Boy from Oz' audition. Or you just are a fucking badass. The latter of which I really want to see in future incarnations of Sniktbub.

    Eh I thought he was pretty good, I mean he managed to pull off the hair.. that's a big deal right there.
     All actors are replaceable like as was said earlier, its entirely possible to have a completely CG Wolverine in a movie. I'd just like a solo movie of his to be as good as I think it should be.
     
    Story and Direction generally make good movies, I seen some brilliant acting in terrible movies before, did it save the movie from being terrible? nope.

    Face it guys, there's gonna be a reboot 10 years down the road, and somebody's gonna replace him. But you have to be pretty talented to pull off a convincing feral runt (Wolvie is no longer a runt in the comics or recent shows thanks to Hugh, cool) like Hugh does.

    I'd welcome it, guy that played Toombs in Chronicles of Riddick would do way better. Just look at the scene when he has Riddick on his ship and is smoking the cigar along with his voice, oozes Wolverine IMO.

    Nothing really. Hugh Jackman rules but really there could be way better wolverines. People just get comfortable with actors playing roles and most people don't like change, but in the long run, they could find someone way better and who actually looks more like wolverine.

    I'd be ok with it. I'm not really a fan of Jackman, and I'm from Australia. He's getting a little too old to be playing a character who isn't meant to age.

    I would like it if Hugh Jackman wasn't Wolverine.  A youngish Charles Bronson would have made a good Wolverine.  Even Mel Gibson, during the Lethal Weapon years would have been a good Wolveine, he's got the look for it and this is coming from someone that doesn't even like Mel Gibson.
