Since 2000, when Fox's X-Men movies began, his role as Marvel Comics' character has been a constant presence on the silverscreen.

But Jackman stepped aside in 2017 in the much-anticipated and eagerly awaited standalone Logan.

The X-Men are finally home at Marvel Studios after Fox acquired them a few years ago.

A new actor is also part of the reboot.

Taron Egerton is one actor that many fans would love to see take up Jackman's claws and play the role of Wolverine.
