Hugh Jackman first portrayed Wolverine in the original X-Men (2000). Since then, he has played the clawed bad ass over 5 more times and has become on of the most recognizable superheros around. Sadly, all good things must come to an end. A little while ago Jackman announced that Wolverine 3 will be his final time to wear the claws. While The Wolverine 3 is set for release in 2017, it is time to start preparing for the inevitable, recasting the most iconic actor to play a superhero. But I see a lot of these names thrown around online on who SHOULD play Wolverine, but these are the people I think SHOULDN'T take the role. Now watch me shoot down all of your choices because no one can play the role better than Jackman.

A reboot of the diminishing mutant movie series is in the works as Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine heads for retirement and a studio's $4 billion franchise sits in flux.
A reboot...YES
Make Deadpool the start of the rebooted X-Men Universe and you are bloody well set
They need to make their Universe R-Rated because it's the only way to stand out from Marvel and DC's Universes by bringing the audience something they won't get off them
As I sat through X-Men: Apocalypse, I felt every ounce of the eight film series' decade-spanning mythos weighing on me. At this point, it's inescapable...
I agree with you on most points, however I feel that Apocalypse was so out of place in this movie. In a movie named Apocalypse, he wasn't the best part of the movie.
All nine X-Men films are ranked from worst to best, spanning the franchise's history from the original 2000 picture to the latest release with X-Men: Apocalypse. Which film comes out on top and which is the bottom of the barrel?
I would like it if he stayed on for some future Deadpool films...maybe in his yellow costume.
Tom Hardy would be the next perfect wolverine, even hugh jackman suggested him
I could do Hardy, but he would have to beef up to Epic proportions. Don't know if he's up for that.
Shia, Carl and Scott and Jake could absolutely pull this off also, they can act and with the proper training, I can see the feral side in them. Easy.
Are you kidding me? Your reason for not wanting Hardy is ill-informed and juvenile. He didn't just walked out on the Suicide Squad role. It clashed with The Revenant shooting and they refused to let him go. And he was quite pissed about it too.
Anyway, I'd rather have Hardy as Sam Fisher in the Splinter Cell movie. Much more interesting role than playing a constipated pretend "badass" whose main appeal is "arrrrrr.....i breakz duh rulez when n how i want.....arrrrr". *facepalm* He's such a try-hard. And pubescent kids who think breaking rules and laws make them look cool fall for that garbage.
Tom Hardy is the obvious choice on that list.
Seriously, Aaron Paul, Shia LeBouf...Liam Hemsworth...are they kidding me?
