Talk quickly turned to X-Men Origins: Wolverine and future Wolverine projects. Will there be more Wolverine films? Does Jackman want to reprise the role again? Can he keep that tight, tanned, toned body....whew, slow down Betty....back on track - does he want to reprise the role of Wolverine after the release of the Origins film?

Hugh said laughing, “Absolutely, but we'll see how things turn out after May 3.”

Yes, by the end of opening weekend, 20th Century Fox will certainly know if the new X-Men Origins franchise is a hit. Hopefully propelling X-Men Origins: Magneto full speed ahead and also giving us a Wolverine sequel. But, would it be a direct sequel to the Origins prequel or a follow up to X-Men 3?

“It would be a sequel to Origins,” confirmed Jackman.

And what storyline would Hugh like to explore? As he has said before, the Japanese story lines are something he'd like for the character to delve into.
