Logan Star Hugh Jackman wants Shah Rukh Khan to play Wolverine

Hugh Jackman‘s last ride as the Wolverine is up for a March 3 release. He’s leaving no stone unturned to make sure this turns out to be the best Wolverine/X-Men movie of all time. While everyone is eagerly awaiting the final Wolverine film, many are wondering as to who’d don the ‘claws’ next. Talking to Rajeev Masand, when he was asked if he would be comfortable seeing other actor playing the role that he had made legendary with his portrayal for 17 long years, Hugh replied, “I think I’ll be fine with it. I hope other people play it. May be Shah Rukh Khan could play it.” Yes! he said that. Exciting right?

He further added, “The comic book series is so good because you have so many people interpreting this role. I think there are six origin stories. I’ll be really interested to see how I feel about it. I want it to be really great. But I don’t want it to be that much better than me. Just a little bit is fine. But if everyone is like ‘oh thank god..now,’ I might find that little difficult.”

For those who don’t remember, in 2011, when Hugh Jackman was in India for FICCI Frames, Shah Rukh Khan was the one who hosted him and they had even set the dance floor on fire, along with Vidya Balan.
