Hugh Jackman<\/strong> has shown plenty of skin in his previous outings as Wolverine in the X-Men film series, but he decided to take things a bit farther during X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST<\/a> when a scene called for him to “wake up” in the 70’s.<\/p>\n

“It wasn’t written as a nude scene,” says the actor who appeared on Live with Kelly and Michael<\/a>. “The scene has Wolverine, because the whole premise of the movie is it has Wolverine traveling back in time to prevent something cataclysmic happening in the future,” he said. “So I land back in 1973. I wake up — this is what the script says — wake up next to a girl who I don’t remember, and I get out of bed wearing boxer shorts.” <\/p>\n

But wearing boxer shorts didn’t make much sense to him, adding “I don’t know about America, but in Australia, if you are next to a really good looking girl, you’re not getting out with boxer shorts on or briefs, or anything! So, yeah, I went commando and we just went for it.”<\/p>\n

Jackman revealed that “there’s a sock” that was initially used to cover his bits, saying “They brought a bright green sock for me to wear and I was like, ‘This is kind of drawing more attention than less.’ And they said, ‘No, no, no we need bright green like a green screen, so if you bend over, if you turn around, we need to erase it.’ By the end of the first take, I was like, ‘Yep, it’s gone, I don’t know where it is. So, yeah commando.” <\/p>\n
