With the departure of the hugely-popular
(though hugely-overrated) Taken franchise having coincided
with the arrival of 2014’s already-sequel’d sleeper-hit John Wick, evidently
there’s still plenty of room in the market for veteran male Hollywood actors to
unleash relentless chaos on the scum of the silver screen.
Curious about something in particular..?

Logan Isn’t A Superhero Movie – It’s A Movie About A Superhero.
2000’s X-Men made Jackman a household name, and
while he was mostly absent from last year’s stinker that was X-Men:
Apocalypse and 2011’s “soft
reboot” X-Men:
First Class (with the
exception of some fun cameos), Jackman has, for the most part, dominated the X-Men cinematic landscape, serving as the
figurehead for the original trilogy, spawning his own now-trilogy of spin-off
films and saving the franchise from certain doom in 2014’s critically-acclaimed X-Men:
Days of Future Past. Now, after having played the character to whom he is
forever inseparably affiliated for a whopping seventeen years, Hugh Jackman
finally hangs up the claws as he reprises his role as The Wolverine in what it
to be his final outing.
