Hugh Jackman Confirms DAYS OF FUTURE PAST After-Credits Scene For THE WOLVERINE
While it was expected, Hugh Jackman has now confirmed that The Wolverine does indeed feature and after-credits scene which will lead into the events of Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past. Hit the jump to read his comments in full!
There were rumours not too long ago of Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart shooting a scene together for The Wolverine which would lead into X-Men: Days of Future Past. Well, whether or not that is indeed the scene is unknown, but Jackman has at least now confirmed that there is in fact an after-credits stinger which sets up Bryan Singer's X-Men: First Class "inbetweequel". "There's a lot of great actors in it, and if you stick around to the end of the credit of The Wolverine, you're going to get a really nice little Easter Egg for what Days of Future Past has to offer...which we can't reveal!" So, it seems Fox are taking a page from Marvel's book! What would you guys like to see in this scene? Be sure to ound off with your thoughts in the usual place.
Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before.
