Along with that, another interview with Jackman plays with the recent talk about Patrick Stewart’s Professor X showing up in the next solo Wolverine movie.

First up is the video of Jackman getting news of the Spider-Man deal. This comes from ScreenCrush, as the site was in New York talking to Jackman about Chappie.

It’s fun to watch Jackman be as gobsmacked as some of us were when news of the Spider-Man deal first broke.

Then there’s the talk JoBlo had with Jackman, in which the actor was asked about Patrick Stewart’s comments about returning to the role of Professor X for a Wolverine film.

That’s not a full confirmation by any means, but it doesn’t do much to scuttle the talk of seeing Patrick Stewart reunite with Jackman for another go on the Wolverine sequel.

The Wolverine 2 is scheduled to be in theaters on March 3, 2017.
