Marvel Entertainment's "Logan" premiered at the prestigious Berlin Film Festival, as the main cast of the film were present on the said affair including Hugh Jackman. However, screaming fans were not aware that the actor's recurring skin cancer is back once again.
This is the sixth skin cancer (basal cell carcinoma) bout that the "Wolverine" actor has faced, as he already undergone treatment for such. Jackman arrived at the said event in Germany with a small bandage on his nose, and even took to Twitter to tell his fandom that he is in tip top shape and advised fans to wear sunscreen.
Meanwhile, such health scare did not prevent the "Wolverine" actor from attending the occasion, as "Logan" is competing at the above-mentioned award giving body. Furthermore, it was revealed that one of Jackman's goal in doing the film is to have it compete and be recognized by film critics, according to Page Six. In a statement obtained by the publication, the actor stated that he does not want the film to be deemed as a "comic book movie," but rather a "film on its own."
Additionally, Jackman mentioned that Logan will be "the end of the road" for him and the clawed hero. He even recounted that their final shooting day was action packed as he got hurt though felt great about it. However, he told the New York Times that he wants to set the record straight that he is not retiring.
In line with this, there were rumor mills that Jackman may don the adamantium claws once more in "Deadpool 2." Such fan theory was further strengthened when Ryan Reynolds posted a photo on Instagram, showing Jackman, Pierce Brosnan, and himself as they pose like the Three Wise Monkeys. Brosnan, on the other hand, is also rumored to play as the time-travelling mutant Cable.
Meanwhile, Jackman mentioned that he is totally fine with the fact that another actor will be replacing him to play the part of Wolverine. He jokingly said though that unless fellow actor - Daniel Day-Lewis takes on the part and wins an Academy Award for it, he will be having problems with that.
"Logan" is slated to be released on March 3. Lucky movie buffs who got to watch it on special screenings were all but praises on the upcoming film.
