Hugh Jackman Wants Wolverine to Become an Avenger

Not only is Hugh Jackman shying away from his Wolverine retirement plan, the actor already has his eye on joining another superhero team.

“I would love to see him as part of the Avengers,” he tells IGN. “There’s a great dysfunction among that team, and I think Wolverine would fit right into that. He’d like that.”

“There’s no doubt he’d get in a fight with Hulk at some point,” he continued. “Those two bad, rage-filled characters are going to square off at some point. It would be quite fun. I don’t know how much fun to shoot it would be because I’m sure I’d be on the worst end of it, but hey, he can heal.”

For now, due to the Avengers rights belonging to Marvel Studios and X-Men belonging to Fox, such a crossover event is unlikely. We’ll have to be satisfied instead with X-Men: Days of Future Past, in theaters this week.
