He played Wolverine for twenty-four years, a tenure that redefined what a franchise anchor could be - and then outlasted the franchise itself, returning in 2024 to cross into the MCU long after the original X-Men films had closed.

I was there for three weeks before I shot a single thing. And that first day of shooting... I was so nervous, man.

It's always the suit's fault. Never the actor.

I think every male at some point thinks about playing James Bond so it was not right then, but it may be right if it comes back.

About this person

Hugh Michael Jackman was born 12 October 1968 in Australia and started in theatre, playing Gaston in Beauty and the Beast in 1995 and earning a Laurence Olivier nomination for Oklahoma! in London in 1998. X-Men in 2000 made him Wolverine, the role that would shadow and define his career through 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine. Between those films he worked steadily - Kate & Leopold, Van Helsing, The Prestige, Australia, Real Steel, Prisoners - and sang his way to awards: a Tony in 2004 for The Boy from Oz, an Oscar nomination and Golden Globe for Les Misérables in 2012, a Grammy for The Greatest Showman soundtrack. He hosted the Tonys four times and the Oscars once, won an Emmy for the 2005 Tony telecast, and returned to Broadway in 2021 as Harold Hill in The Music Man. In 2019 he was appointed a Companion of the Order of Australia.
