A Past X-Man Confirmed to Cameo in THE WOLVERINE

Hugh Jackman might just have leaked some very exciting news about upcoming sequel-spin-off The Wolverine. Talking to magazine Parade about the movie, he revealed something that many fans have been suspecting for a while now:

PARADE: Give us a little scoop on the film.
You want to get me into trouble, don’t you? [laughs] Okay, the movie takes place after X-Men: The Last Stand. My character is at his lowest. He is supposed to be able to heal himself, but he may encounter someone who has worked out a way to really hurt him. And there is a cameo from one of the past X-Men in it.

We can safely cross Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen off the list, along with James Marsden and Halle Berry, as they’re either dead, de-powered, or Halle Berry – so could that mean that Famke Janssen could return as Jean Grey?

The Wolverine hits cinemas on July 26, 2013.
