The 'Wolverine' Could Have Been 'James Bond' But Unfortunately It Never Happened

Hugh Jackman made his ‘Wolverine’ avatar iconic and has a massive fan following for that.

In a recent interview, Jackman revealed some information which could have been HUGE, if only it happened. Apparently, the ‘Wolverine’ turned down the iconic role of ‘James Bond’ because he thought the script was a little too wild for his comfort. “I just felt at the time that the scripts has become so unbelievable and crazy, and I felt like they needed to become grittier and real’, he said.

Another hiccup in the legendary actor not taking up the role of the iconic spy was that he was told by the producers that he won’t have any say in the whole plotting of the movie and the character. So that’s one more thing that made him turn it down. Also, he was worried about swinging between ‘X-Men’ and ‘James Bond’ which would have been tough. His refusal turned out to be gold for Daniel Craig eventually.

Obviously, Hugh had nothing to worry about and regrets didn’t have any space in his life since he went on to do some stellar work and owned the whole ‘Wolverine’ franchise and made it what it became.

If you’re currently going through withdrawal since the finale of the seventh season of ‘Game of Thrones’, then there’s some good news for you.

Instead of re-watching the whole series, while waiting for the next and final season, a new TV Show called ‘Britannia’ can fill the gaping hole in your life that ‘Game of Thrones’ has left.

Set in 43AD, this nine-part series will centre around Celtic mythology, basically telling the story of three tribes – the Druids, the Celts and the Romans – who are battling for control of Britannia.

Britannia has been written by Jez Butterworth, who wrote the James Bond flick ‘Spectre’, so it’s probably a safe bet that this TV Show is going to be rather epic. Moreover, it boasts of a pretty solid cast as well, including British actor Mackenzie Crook as the Druid chieftain Veran. He underwent quite a transformation for the role, being fitted with prosthetics, scarred up and sporting some black contacts. Honestly, he looks quite terrifying.

The show also stars Kelly Reilly from True Detective; David Morrissey, who appeared in ‘The Walking Dead’ and Zoë Wanamaker from Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.

This show will mark the first time that Celtic Mythology will be showcased on the small screen, and if you’re a ‘Game of Thrones’, ‘Vikings’ or ‘The Last Kingdom’ fan, then this is a must watch.

Even though there is no set date as of now, ‘Britannia’ is expected to come out sometime next year.
