Hugh Jackman has dismissed reports that he was being courtd for a USD 100 million deal for four more movies in the 'Wolverine' franchise.
The latest outing by Jackman's clawed mutant is still running in theatres but the 44-year-old actor, who embarks on a strick diet and exercise regime to prepare for the role every time, said he would not go into that space without any good reason, reported Entertainment Weekly.
"No it's not true," Jackman said. The actor is currenly in Montreal shooting for next summer's highly anticipated 'X-Men: Days of Future Past'.
"I would never do that. I've never done that mainly because, for the fans and for me, each time I've gone around there's been a really good reason to do it and I don't know what that reason is from here. I'm in the middle of making this and I just promoted the other and I'm really happy with the way The Wolverine came out," he added.
