Hugh Jackman ‘Would Love’ Wolverine To Be In The Avengers
X-Men: Days of Future Past star Hugh Jackman recently expressed to IGN that he would love to see his character Wolverine join the dream team of superheroes, The Avengers.
“I would love to see him as part of The Avengers,” said Jackman, about Wolverine possibly teaming up with Iron Man and Thor. “There’s a great dysfunction among that team, and I think Wolverine would fit right into that. He’d like that.”
When asked which of the Avengers he’d fight first, the 45-year-old Wolverine said that he would ultimately battle the big, green monster. “There’s no doubt he’d get in a fight with Hulk at some point. Those two bad, rage-filled characters are going to square off at some point.”
Nevertheless, Jackman continued, “It would be quite fun. I don’t know how much fun to shoot it would be because I’m sure I’d be on the worst end of it, but hey, he can heal.”
The actor added he’d like to see his character Logan go toe-to-toe with Robert Downey Jr’s Tony Stark in a movie.
The only flaw in his plan would be that different studios own the rights to certain Marvel characters. With 20th Century Fox maintaining the rights to the X-Men characters, Disney/Marvel Studios are the ones who have full control of The Avengers.
