With Logan set to hit theaters in just a couple of weeks, a lot of the buzz has surrounded Hugh Jackman's departure of the classic Wolverine character. The star has played Wolverine since the year 2000, and this is supposed to be his last ride.

People seem to forget that another X-Men legend is featured in Logan.

Charles Xavier has been played by Sir Patrick Stewart multiple times since the original X-Men film, and he's one of the oldest actors in the franchise. Don't be quick to judge him by his age though, as the legendary actor is now teasing that he may still ride again as Professor X.

When ET was speaking with the two actors, they were asking Jackman about saying goodbye to his character. He made it clear that he was definitely done with Wolverine, but Stewart revealed that the same isn't necessarily true for him.

"Hugh has raised the flag that says goodbye. I haven't done that yet."

There's little doubt that any fan would complain about seeing Stewart reprise his role as Xavier at any point. He portrayed the X-Men leader perfectly, and many would love to see him back.

Logan hits theaters on March 3, 2017. Make sure to let us know whether or not you're hyped for the film with our Anticipation Rankings below!
