Hugh Jackman unveils Wolverine

Hollywood heart-throb Hugh Jackman has unveiled the fourth installment of the X-Men saga to a throng of fans on Tuesday night. As he tread the red carpet in Los Angeles, Jackman proved himself to be a multi-talented actor who can not only sing and dance but also produce. That was one of his many tasks on X-Men Origins: Wolverine. And co-star Ryan Reynolds thinks he was more than up to the job. Reynolds gushed: "Hugh's an amazing guy and I think an amazing person is likely to make a great producer. I think the thing that makes Hugh so great is that he's infusing all of his passion for this character into the entire production... That's the mark of a great, great producer." And the Australian actor behind the claws reckons this installment is the best yet. Jackman said: "I always feel like I want to do better than the last time. I want to raise the bar and personally, I feel proud of it and it's finally the Wolverine that I want to see." It's not all about special effects though, Lynn Collins aka Kaylya Silverfox insisted the story delved much deeper. She said: "As much as we're talking about superheroes, there's something in these characters that we can relate to on a human level. "Their conflicts that they struggle through and how they resolve or maybe don't resolve. We can really relate to that and I think it's become our new mythology." X-Men Origins: Wolverine hits the silver screen on May 29th.
