Hugh Jackman not sure about X4

Lauren Schuler Donnor and Bryan Singer are both interested in an x-4, this we already know. Today we learn that Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman, isn’t too sure that the movie will have his involvement but is optimistic about Wolverine 2 and First Class 2.

When asked about whether or not Jackman could see a sequel to X-MEN 3: THE LAST STAND happening, he replied:
“I don’t see it. I can only see one movie ahead. I’m pretty sure I’m well into the second half of this match. I don’t know exactly when the end is, but I only go one at a time. If this [THE WOLVERINE] is the last one, fingers crossed, man, I just hope we finally get that hole in one…”When asked about whether or not Jackman could see a sequel to X-MEN 3: THE LAST STAND happening, he replied:

So I guess he’s realized he’s played the character for over 10yrs now and plans at some point to hang up the claws, which is fine with me. Obviously at some point he’d have to retire from the role but I love Jackman and his portrayal of Marvels favorite mutant, and with a heavy heart I have to understand that if he believes that it’s time to pass the mantle to another actor after, hopefully, accomplishing his goal of finally delivering an awesome Wolverine movie then it’s probably true.
Personally I’d like them to re-cast the entire X-men roster and give it another try at a modern day X-men tale, rather than delivering the 20+ yr old storylines they’ve been using. Yes, a REBOOT. Hopefully something more Sinister.
when does the X-Men proporty go back to Marvel? to have xmen and spiderman show up in the marvel movies would be awesome
when fox stops making x-men movies and sony stops making spiderman movies then marvel gets the rights back…they have a specific amount of time in between movies to get started with something before the rights revert to marvel
From what I understand…the contract apparently only runs out if Fox stops making X-movie (or FF movies) for a set amount of time. So…until Fox is hurting for cash, it’ll probably never happen. They’ll just keep rebooting.
thats quite sad the only way we will get it done properly is when all rights revert back to marvel…
I guess the xmen 1st class reboot cant factor in at all then ? So they themselves cannot have another wolverine I take it….
entire movie franchise is upside down at least marvel done it properly with avengers and all the spin off films. its a shame sony/20th century fox will never lot go of the cash cow that is spiderman/fantastic four and even dare devil….guess in 20 years time we may have another reboot :) Big shame they cant all hold hands and work together…
