Hugh Jackman recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about when he first learned of Wolverine’s large role in Bryan Singer’s upcoming X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST.

“I first heard about it around October or November [2012]. I was literally finishing The Wolverine and dreaming about lasagna, and about three weeks before the end, they told me. There was no way I was not going to be part of that.”

Jackman joins a growing cast which includes James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Ellen Page, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen.

He has seen an eight-page synopsis for the film, and is awaiting to read the completed screenplay.
