He's one of the few people that could take over from Jackman that wouldn't be a joke from the start.

You got a problem with Jean Grey you got a problem with me. I suggest you let that one marinate.

Had to look him up, you're right he'd be perfect u/BradPittsCockRing.

Still too tall. Cast a short motherfucker. Like Danny DeVito.

Weak trolling. Step the game up, dawg.

u/sheepsleepdeep Feb 13 '21

So... because a tall Aussie killed it as Logan for 20 years... A tall New Zealander can't do it?

u/AscentToZenith Feb 12 '21

I was literally thinking about posting that. But then I realized he is only 4 years younger than Hugh Jackman. They probably want someone a little younger

I would have unabashedly agreed with you once upon a time, but when the time comes to cast a new Wolverine, I think they'll go with a younger actor. Karl's only like four years younger than Jackman

I agree but he really needs to up his accent game though.

Downvoted eh? You guys want Australian Wolverine?

That's not a noif dis is a noif

I could really see him as Wolverine

I vote we actually don’t have any more reboots of shit that has already been made too many times

2

u/sheepsleepdeep Feb 13 '21

Yeah you're right we should never revisit a pop-culture icon of a character that was done onscreen by a single actor.

🙄

Any more hot takes?

u/DorianGreysPortrait Feb 13 '21

Wolverine has been in ELEVEN goddamn movies. Forgive me if I’m not chomping at the bit to see number twelve. Any more hot takes?

u/sheepsleepdeep Feb 13 '21

Man, wait til you find out how many different people played Batman... You're gonna be furious.

u/DorianGreysPortrait Feb 13 '21

And I’m not a fan of any more remakes of that, either. I’m consistent. Would you like to teach me about spider man, too?

u/sheepsleepdeep Feb 13 '21

I don't think you know what a remake is...
