Hugh Jackman has a background in theater, and an even more extensive background playing Wolverine. So naturally, the Aussie action star is the perfect fit for a fake musical about everyone’s favorite X-Man. Hugh Jackman: Wolverine: The Musical! Wolverine: The Musical made its brief debut during a recent interview Jackman gave to BBC radio, and if Broadway is looking for a way to get more dudes in the audience, they’ve found it! In a song set to the tune of “One More Day” from Les Miserables , Jackman crooned about his ripped physique (“I gave up junk food that I know, I made that bargain long ago”) and, of course, works in a plug for his upcoming flick (“I play the X-man, yes it’s quite a task, in X-Men: Days of Future Past”). Sadly, the two minute clip above is the all that exists of this glorious fake musical, but with any luck, it’ll go super-viral and get theater producers to take notice. Hey, if Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark made it to Broadway, surely Marvel’s band of mutants deserves a shot as well. In the meantime, we’ll just have to content ourselves with X-Men: Days of Future Past. The latest installment in the mega-popular franchise is set to hit movie theaters on May 23.
