I wonder what the people at Fox think about this! According to our good friends over at Cinemablend, it looks like Woverine himself (Hugh Jackman) is playing the role of a younger version of Superman’s father! That’s amazing news!!! It would also explain why we haven’t seen Sup’s dad in the trailers while we have seen short glimpses of his mom. I guess they’re trying to keep Jackman’s cameo a secret.
The one bit of confusion I have in this story is that they seem to suggest, without being really clear about it, that Jackman with be a younger Jor-El, as opposed to a younger Jonathan Kent (which would make more sense to me). There’s no source listed in the story so I couldn’t follow it up. But man, that will be fun to see him in there if this is true. The Superman Returns excitement just keeps building!
