“We have a script. A full script,” Jackman tells Collider. “To tell you, two days ago I got that the full finished—well, it’s not finished, but we’re getting super close—as you can see by the rate of my facial hair. That might give you a good clue that perhaps…yeah, it’s sooner rather than later.”
“Also, the pecs are expanding as well,” Kingsman star Taron Egerton, Jackman’s co-star in Eddie the Eagle, added in to signify Jackman’s readiness for the super hero role.
As for when the final Hugh Jackman Wolverine movie will begin filmin – that’s to be decided.
“I don’t have a firm date yet,” Jackman says. “My thing and I’ve told you and I’ve told everyone, it’s my last one, for me I want it to be perfect, so the moment I know it’s perfect, bang, we’ll go.”
Wolverine 3 is set for release March 3, 2017.
