Hugh Jackman Turned Down Offer To Return As 'Wolverine' For The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Despite having been such an iconic actor to play Wolverine on the big screen, Hugh Jackman has rejected an alleged offer for him to return to MCU movies.

'Logan', starring Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, was undoubtedly one of the greatest farewells of a major movie character in recent years. Taking advantage of the great influence that classic westerns left behind, James Mangold directed this twilight film of superheroes that managed to sneak into the Oscars Awards with a nomination for best adapted screenplay.

But 'Logan' was more than just a movie, it was a way for Hugh Jackman to say goodbye to a character he had been playing for 17 years and this last movie allowed him to shine in a special way. And of course, with this brilliant farewell, who would want to return?

And indeed, it seems that Hugh Jackman does not, because as reported by 'We Got This Covered', the Australian has apparently refused to bring Wolverine back to life.

This offer for Jackman to return as Wolverine would have come from the executives of Disney and Marvel Studios and their intention would be to relaunch the movie universe of the X-Men, to include them in their extensive MCU. Some rumors that have been circulating on the Internet almost from the first moment they joined together were that Marvel was going to recover the rights of the mutants after the purchase of Fox by Disney.

There are many prospective actors who could take over from Hugh Jackman as Logan, who was supposed to have retreated from this role which is now definitely the case as he himself has confirmed after having rejected this alleged new offer from Disney. But who could really take over from a role that has become so iconic as a Hugh Jackman portrayal?
