Check Out Hugh Jackman’s Surprised Response To The Spider-Man News And Professor X Rumors

Were you shocked by the recent Spider-Man/Marvel Studios news? Yeah, we all were, but it turns out the fans weren’t the only ones surprised. Hugh Jackman, who apparently didn’t have any inside knowledge of the Sony/Marvel negotiations, was basically blindsided by the news during a live interview for Chappie. Check out Wolverine’s charmingly off-the-cuff reaction above.

You can really see those wheels turning when he hears he news “Sony and Marvel, wow. Okay. Money, money, money. Is there some way I can make more money out of this?”

Jackman also recently addressed Patrick Stewart’s comments about Professor X being a major part of the next Wolverine movie…

“I’m not going to deny it. I’ve always seen it as a really important relationship, and we started with that and I think it’s a really important one. I think it would be really great to see it in the Wolverine movie, because we haven’t really explored it in the standalone Wolverine movies. So it’s not not not not not going to happen.” (via)

I’m assuming that last line was a joke, since the rest of the quote seems to confirm the Professor X/Wolverine team-up. Too bad charming drollery doesn’t always come through in text.
