Hugh Jackman Confirms ‘Wolverine 3’ Exit: No ‘Old Man Logan’ or ‘Avengers Vs X-Men’ Crossover

Hugh Jackman has teased that he is leaving his role as The Wolverine behind him for some time now, but now he has confirmed it. Jackman recently revealed that Wolverine 3 will be his final appearance as the character. That crushes all hopes of seeing an Old Man Logan, or an A vs X Avengers crossover with Marvel/Disney.

Earlier in the year, Hugh Jackman posted a picture on Instagram teasing Wolverine 3 as his last appearance as the character.

Hugh Jackman recently appeared on The Dr. Oz Show, where he confirmed that he was leaving the role after Wolverine 3 (via IGN):

“It is my last time. I kind of have in my head what we’re going to do in this last one. It just feels like this is the perfect way to go out.”

Jackman spoke to IGN last year about his time as Wolverine coming to an end:

“I’m sure they had the discussion. They didn’t mention it to me, obviously! [Laughs] Look, that’s inevitable, man. Anyone who thinks they're indispensable in this business is fooling themselves. But I feel unbelievably blessed to have this part. I never thought in a million years I'd get to play him seven times. Every day I walk on the set with the claws and the hair, I thank my lucky stars. I don't take any of it for granted.”
