With filming of X-Men First Class taking place in Georgia on Jekyll Island, we get some speculation that Hugh Jackman may have some involvement in the film as a cab driver claims to have driven the Wolverine star to report to the set.
Word from a taxi driver in Georgia seems to suggest that Jackman has already been on set at Jekyll Island where they are currently filming.
I drove Hugh Jackman from X-Men To the Airport this morning. They are filming on Jekyll…Cool guy!
The character is somewhat ageless as illustrated in Wolverine Origins, so for a film that is set in the 60s of the X-Men Universe, it is safe to say that he could make an appearance.
My concern is that while they were standing on the shoulders of those who worked before them, they were too busy figuring out if they could, they didn’t stop to think about if they SHOULD!
Ok, enough with my Jurrassic Park Goldblum rant…
I don’t know if I am upset about them potentially placing Wolverine in the movie, as long as he is in a cameo and just crosses paths with the characters.
The three X-Men films revolved around Wolverine already, and I was looking forward to some X-Films without him in it to have a lot more story that isn’t about Wolverine.
But if Jackman was brought in for a role or a cameo, he will be once again a part of an X-Film. And as much as I want to see something tie this movie in with the current films, I wish it wasn’t Wolverine.
