Jackman played the adamantium-clawed mutant for seventeen years before giving his final performance in James Mangold's 2017 film Logan. In addition to being a commercial success at the Box Office, the film also received a nod in Oscars for its Screenplay. The film seemed like the perfect capstone to Wolverine and sent out his character on a much-deserved high note.
Recently at one of his concerts, Hugh Jackman decided to turn into Wolverine for a fan named Taylor Van Engen. Following the conclusion of his tap set, Hugh Jackman approached Engen who was standing right by the stage and struck into a series of poses as his character. The actor even took Taylor's phone to capture his reaction at different points.
