Hugh Jackman is reviving 'Wolverine' for the first time since 2017, and the fitness transformation looks a little different at 55. In an interview with People, Jackman was joined by Ryan Reynolds, who witnessed it all for their upcoming film, 'Deadpool & Wolverine.' 'Just the sheer relentlessness that you dedicated yourself towards stunts, choreography,' Reynolds said of Jackman.
You hit your marks in those fight scenes with speed and confidence, the likes of which I have never seen. I don't care if you were 25, 35, 45 or 55. It was lightning.' Reynolds emphasized that watching Jackman perform 'looked like a clinic on stunt work' and was 'one of the most impressive things I've ever seen in my life.' Jackman thanked his co-star for his compliments.
When I came back to it, it was really fun, and I was thrilled. My body was a little sore at the beginning, but I was thrilled that my body was still responding. And I realized how good it is for your brain,' Jackman said. The actor admitted the hardest part of getting in shape for the film wasn't the workouts or the dance training, but the diet. Jackman explained that, in the past, he was required to 'bulk up' to portray 'Wolverine,' which wasn't easy on him.
When Hugh Jackman is coming at you at 150 Australian miles per hour, you feel like there's no way you're not going to be dead in four seconds. And I will never forget that.
