Hugh Jackman to unveil his darker side with 'Pan'

After playing 'Wolverine' for seven times, Hugh Jackman will now unveil his bad side with the new Peter Pan origin story 'Pan', where he will play the dastardly pirate Blackbeard.

Talking about his role, the 46-year-old actor said that Joe Wright knew his real side as this nice guy stuff is boring, reported Entertainment Weekly.

When it came to Blackbeard's eccentric style, the 'X-Men' star was thrilled by the original concept the director came to him with.

"It had my face with white, cracked makeup on, with the wig of Marie Antoinette literally superimposed and the costume of Louis XIV. And I was like, I'm in," he said.
