Another actor had already been cast as Wolverine, but had to step away.
This led to a last-minute recast for Wolverine, and that’s where Jackman came in.
He said he recalls reading lines for director Bryan Singer and writer Tom DeSanto.
Jackman said it was a tense audition, held in the director’s trailer during a lunch break.
He was pissed off," Jackman said of DeSanto.
“I said, ‘Kevin, we all know I’m not getting the part.
You don’t have to do dinner,'” Jackman recalled.
I’ll never forget it.
That was the nicest thing.
I thought, I’ll never see him again."
Reynolds teased, “We have one we’re looking to do soon.”
“I’m always rooting for Hugh to score and win.
I also know the infinite nuance of his heart and his mind and who he is.
