Recently during an interaction with a television journalist, Hugh Jackman said that Shah Rukh might fit in for the role of Wolverine.

Hugh said: "I think I'll be fine with it. I hope other people play it. May be Shah Rukh Khan could play it."

"The comic book series is so good because you have so many people interpreting this role. I think there are six origin stories. I will be really interested to see how I feel about it. I want it to be really great. But I don't want it to be that much better than me. Just a little bit is fine," he added.

Hugh Jackman has been playing the role of Wolverine on screen for last 17 years and he has announced that he would be seen to play this character for the last time in Logan.

The film has hit the screen on March 3 in United States.
