Hugh Jackman Responds To DEADPOOL's WOLVERINE Diss; Doesn't Rule Out A Big-Screen Rematch

In a new interview, Hugh Jackman gives his thoughts on his old buddy Ryan Reynolds' recent "Australia Day" promo, and hints that he'd be up for an appearance as Wolverine in a Deadpool sequel...

In a recent Deadpool promo, Ryan Reynolds took a few good-natured jabs at his old X-Men Origins: Wolverine pal Hugh Jackman and Wade Wilson's much maligned appearance in the movie. Yahoo! caught up with the Aussie actor at Sundance where he's promoting his new film, Eddie The Eage, and asked him for his take on the hilarious video.

“Love it. It’s just brilliant. I mean, I love Ryan, he’s a good mate of mine. He’s so fantastic,” Jackman replied - but couldn't help getting a little shot of his own in when asked if Wolvie would take the Merc With a Mouth in a fight. “A hundred percent,” he replied with a grin.

Much has been made of Jackaman's next appearance as the clawed mutant in James Mangold's The Wolverine follow-up being his last, but it sounds like he wouldn't mind taking another crack at Wilson in a potential Deadpool sequel. “I’ve never thought about it till now, but doing something with Ryan – he’s awesome – that’s always attractive to me. But I think you’ve probably got several other people lined up to play [Wolverine]… probably you,” he says, gesturing to his Eddie the Eagle co-star Taran Egerton. “I don’t think I’ve quite got the facial hair for it,” chuckled the Kingsman actor in response.

What do you guys think? Would you like to see Logan pop up in Deadpool 2?

I'd like to see a young actor for Wolverine. But they make him up to be much older than what he is. No one younger than 25 though.

I don't they they'll plan on replacing Wolverine for awhile with Gambit and Deadpool supposedly taking over as their bigger X-Men characters.

If there would be a Deadpool appearance in Wolverine 3 that'd be awesome!

It would be beyond dumb to not replace Wolverine as soon as possible. Do they not see the success of Avengers. Do they not see the excitement for BvS and Justice League? If you establish Deadpool, and Gambit, and Wolverine then it becomes magic when you put them all together in a movie. That being said it is Fox so who knows what they are going to do.

I've seen some reviews of Deadpool from that screening a while back, nobody has been confirming that Wolvie is in the movie, but everyone is saying expect a cameo we've all wanted. And it's not stan lee.

It would be rather fun to watch Wolverine kick the living shit out of Dumbpool!
I'd be up for that in the sequel.

The show has gone downhill but when we start a show we commit to it hoping it gets better

I often wonder if, once he's done playing the character at Fox, if he couldn't do an un-named appearance in a Marvel Studios film without ever popping the claws. Do a WWII flashback with Cap, have him be a fellow soldier who miraculously survives something that clearly should have killed him, and have him play it off.

Cyke, Nate Grey, Storm, Wolverine, Ice Man, Rouge, Colossus

I've put a lot of thought into this. I know it wouldn't happen, but I think it's perfect
