Australian actor Hugh Jackman showed off some of his insane fitness routine to return to playing the mutant Wolverine.
The 55-year-old star will return to his most famous character in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, a production directed by filmmaker Shawn Levy scheduled for release on July 26, 2024.
Filming for ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is over. Jackman shared on Instagram a video he made at the time of his work on the production, with him pumping iron to regain the ripped physical shape characteristic of the most popular member of the X-Men group.
Watch the video:
In the caption of the post, Jackman celebrated the work of his personal trainer: “When I was returning to being Wolverine, my friend and trainer Beth Lewis was always by my side. Just like your faithful assistant Andy!”
Jackman also included a hashtag in the caption with the release date of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, “#26deJuly”.
“Yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, daddy!” exclaimed actor Channing Tatum in the comments section of Jackman’s post.
“This effort will pay off! Enjoy your freedom now!”, celebrated one person. “You look huge!” said a third.
“My childhood hero has aged so well,” someone else posted.
Jackman played Wolverine for the first time in ‘X-Men’ (2000), then made five more ‘X-Men’ and three solo films for the mutant. He made a cameo in a photo in ‘Deadpool’ and had an old scene with his presence included in ‘Deadpool 2’.
At the beginning of last January, Jackman had shared several photos on Instagram showing some of his daily meals, with several records of his lunches, to stay in shape during the reshoots that ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ went through a few weeks ago.
