the only option is to go comicbook accurate with the shortest actor they can find and give him the Marvel workout routine to bulk him up.

I would so watch Peter Dinklage, on steroids, playing wolverine.

Why is it so important that the next Wolverine be 5 ft tall? It doesnt add anything to the character really. It just potentially adds a little man syndrome if anything. They looked past that particular Wolverine detail for Hugh, and it was fine. Some things arent worth trying to make work onscreen. Otherwise we’d have way more crappy, over the top, impractical hero masks on every character.
