When we think about Wolverineautomatically comes to mind Hugh JackmanThe Australian actor has become one with Logan and will be one of those characters that, as the years go by, we will never forget. However, Jackman thought he would never get this role.
In an interview with Entertainment Weeklythe actor revealed that he was quite pessimistic when he auditioned for the role of Wolverine in X-Men. He thought it was going to be a waste of time, as he believed the actor had already been chosen before his audition. However, Kevin Feigewho is now Marvel’s top dog, invited him to dinner before taking him to the airport to make sure that all was not as lost as he imagined.
“I said, ‘Kevin, we all know I’m not going to get the part. You don’t have to cook dinner. ‘ But no, he sat there and had a steak dinner with me and then drove me to the airport. I’ll never forget that. That was the nicest thing. I thought, I’ll never see him again.”
During the interview, Feige said that the role of Wolverine was a close call. Initially, Jackman was rejected by several members of the production, but the production company Lauren Shuler Donner I still thought he was the perfect man for the role.
In fact, initially, it was going to be Dougray Scott who would play Logan, but due to fate, Tom Cruise forced the actor to stay filming Mission Impossible 2which led to Jackman finally being chosen to become one of the most beloved mutants by the public.
