Hugh Jackman NOT signed for X3

Taken from AICN when they were at comic con interviewing the stars!

This is the last one... Hugh Jackman (Van Helsing) came out with Kate Beckinsale, Richard Roxburgh (Dracula), Stephen Sommers (Director), 2 brides of Dracula (model lookin' hotties), Will Kemp (Wolf Man), Shuler Hensley (Frankenstein's Monster) and Kevin Jay O'Connor (Igor) joined him up on stage.

Of course, being Comic-Con, the X-Men fans dominated. He was asked about doing an X3 and he said he loved the character of Wolverine, but wouldn't commit to the public that he'd be in X3 as he's not currently contracted to do it. Guess 20th Century Fox is going to have to fork out the moola to resign Wolvie... if they hold out, they're astoundingly stupid. Hugh Jackman IS Wolverine and a big part of the success of the first two X-MEN films.

I know its early, but this is still bad news! I can't imagine anybody else taking the reins as Wolvie cept Hugh!
I hope he isnt becoming snobby and holding out for more moolah! If so then his rep will go down!

[EDIT: noticed the mistake in my title]

I hope so.

Open up the wallet FOX and give us what we want. :)

Also maybe you should edit the title to read X3 to prevent any confusion. ;)

No offense, but have you checked James Cameron's portfolio over the last few years? Titanic... Expedition: Bismark, a documentary about Bismark and erm, Ghosts of the Abyss, another documentary, this time about Titanic... and in 3-D!!! What makes you think he could have made Terminator 3 any better? Imo it was still a good film, although that whole distributed computing skynet virus crap was lame.

Ghosts Of The Abyss was brilliant. Did you see it at I-Max?

and, hey, you may not like Titanic but it is a well made film with class! Not that this will make an impact, but Titanic is the only film ever to break the $1 Billion mark at the box office.

Cameron is a master filmmaker

The title of the thread is wrong it was meant to read X3. ;)
