Hugh Jackman auditions for the part of Wolverine in X-men

[YouFoolWarrenIsDead]

I think this audition was just a formality.

[BoyOfSteel101]

@YouFoolWarrenIsDead no no, hugh was 'unknown' before he did this movie. he went through the whole audition process

[YouFoolWarrenIsDead]

@BoyOfSteel101 Oh. Well ok then.

[TheWolverineiscool]

wow look at him go, wolverine!

[LIFEandPOWER]

sex should be flagged, why isn't he flagged?lol

[adrianaveliz]

I am in love. I am about to start kissing the Computer screen. OH GOD!

[XtreeemEnigma]

the dude has a completely straight bumpless nose?!?!?!

[havehope]

UGH! Thank you Bryan Singer for picking a Wolverine who is like EIGHT FEET TALL! WOLVERINE IS SHORT! NOT TALL! And how does this audition tape get you th part?

[unclebucky3]

its amazing how much they changed the script

[GABYINCUBUSMcCARTNEY]

I LOVE YOU!!!!

[Arletpv]

hot hot hot gorgeous man

[Scene68]

Looking back now there was no other actor that would've portrayed that part better than Mr. Jackman.

[alvaroudd]

Wait, isn't he Wolverine in real life?

[ladybruin12]

Love how he can just switch back and fourth between his accent and his american one...love him btw <3

[1993MovieMan]

@ladybruin12 Um , Logan`s Canadian from Alberta and even the ever-cynical TVTropes admitted Hugh did a pretty good approximation of a rural Alberta accent .

[ladybruin12]

@1993MovieMan Umm okay...My point was just its cool that he can just switch back and fourth between accents

[1993MovieMan]

@ladybruin12 He`s an actor , some of them can do that !

[ladybruin12]

@1993MovieMan no shit...but there are some who say they cant and that they have to keep one accent going and cant go back and fourth

[86hayate]

He seemed fine as wolverine in X-Men, but, X-men:Origins Wolverine sucked seven ways to sunday and i'm seriously rethinking Hugh Jackman's ability to portray the greatest superhero of all time. I mean, That dude was way too busy trying to look good rather than unleashing the beast inside wolverine that makes his opponents piss their panties.

[orange44779]

@86hayate Personally i think he was amazing in X-men:Origins, he made that move!

[Gazmanaust]

@86hayate i would say more of a director problem than actor problem

[lovelymcxoxo]

he looks younger here =)

[MissRobb]

@lovelymcxoxo Of course he does! - this was in 1999! Duh x)

[Pow3rGaming]

This was so interesting! Thanks for the post.

[Pow3rGaming]

I got goosebumps around 2:25ish... He's good.

[PAYday699]

he doesnt need to audition just look at him who else could be wolverine

[Rhini02000]

@PAYday699 i agree with you BEST ACTOR IN THE WORLD LOL!

[BostonsWolverine]

1999-2000...is officially old school, Wolverine swag

[kimiko421539]

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wanna GLOMP HIM!!!!

[BettinaFromBrazil]

did he knew that from this moment his life would be changed forever? :)

<3

[Luveydove56]

wow omg i didnt know actresses and actors had to audtion i mean.. i know they had to but wow it must be rlly humble to get back to start one and try to get another part

[stebbiwebbie]

His smile is so contagious <3

[Felicityrandolph93]

I feell that not all actors are blessed as much as Hugh Jackman is. He is one of the world's greatest actors there is. I don't care what movie he has played in and how many times...But he's amazing at what he do. I feel that not all people are made for the roles they receive. It takes a great actor to determine something like that. Hugh Jackman/ Wolverine....your amazing!!!!

[leigarcia13]

Stunning.

[chrisunitys]

the origional wolverine was going to be dugarry scott , but he was mid contract and couldnt do it!!

[555grommy]

@chrisunitys

Thank God!

[shampoo02]

Dont get me wrong i think Hugh Jackmans a decent actor but would of liked to of seen a differnt person play Wolverine. Yes , Hugh plays a very good Wolverine but hes not real short and stocky.Just my opion but i think less know actors play better comic book parts like look at the first punisher movie , it was real good and liked who played his part.Still Hugh is a great Wolverine and hope the next movie is better than the last , they fucked up Deadpool in the first movie.

[UnifiedaxxS]

woo woo wolverine

[kaprekar30]

Wow he is very gorgeous in this. Totally see why he got the part. I'd seen him in Oklahoma in London and was stunned when he turned up in X-Men.

[karlaihdez]

this man could be reading out of a cereal box, and still it would be sexy as hell.

[breasthound]

i'm a guy and even i think jackman is sexy. woof!

[Kroeger055]

Logan, what's yours? Love it!!!

[Deavi783]

Wow. I hope this guy get's the role

[dymc88]

@Deavi783 he already got it..

[Deavi783]

@dymc88 I know. -__-

[CieloAzulEstrella]

Love it thanks for posting

[eyhika24]

hugh, you're very good in everything :)

[waagzangertje]

This is really terrible, realising that he is so strong in the movies. And howe come he still looks the same 12 years later. Thank god for that, because i don't think they could have made the wolverine movie if he aged a lot. This guy is still atractive when he is 70 years old.

[kgoodwriter92]

they should have kept some of those lines in they would have been great.

[VeeandJoe123]

so nice to know australia has people like him. Makes me proud to be australian!

[EPIGNTCS]

And the rest is legend.

[hadaneva]

he's sooo hooot makes me wanna go to australia...

[Fillionfan400]

I still can't believe how he can almost like 'turn off ' his accent. It's way more intimidating that way!

[nazifa15]

you know whilst i was watching this i completely forgot that he was acting, rather just chilling and chatting with his mate. That is how convincing and amazing he is! so effortlessly talented!.

[iwouldvebeendrake01]

Thumbs up if you watched this ALL THE WAY through(:

[supershadow11123]

of course hugh jackman wouldnt have ANY dislikes!!! lol

[fll7181]

@supershadow11123 darn, now i'll have to be the first LOL but really a great audition reel :)

[xcode394]

wait just curious, are the things that hugh saying from a script or does he make it up as he goes along?

[KurtMcFry]

@xcode394 It's an audition, he received the script and learned the lines.

[AdrenaI1ne]

@xcode394 Both

[sophylareinedusky]

OMG! OMG! OMG!

[skimur27]

cant help him too much when the person reading for rogue is an old man...

[filahohi]

Acting seems pretty easy. I bet getting the audition is the hard part. Right ??

[AriaInTheSky]

@filahohi Wrong. Acting is EXTREMELY hard work. Yes, auditioning is A hard part; not THE hard part. You work your BUTT off day and night. If you say that it's an easy job, it's probably not the right career for you.

[Yashaboy117]

he looks kinda like my brother in this vid creepy :/

[Sagittara121179]

You took the words right out of my mouth and a very good one. @myrickman All it is that you and I seem to view them as the same way in so many way how odd in a way too. :) =^+.+^=

[xxhalfbloodprincessx]

Why didn't they use some of this dialog in the final cut? Most of it's pretty good.

Oh yeah, Hugh Jackman = amazing!

[DWANESWIFE]

DAMN IT HES A GREAT ACTOR! ... HES A NATURAL...

[myrickman]

I love audition tapes like this, it raw untouched you get to see something of the actor you just don't see on film.

Thanks for the post : )

[ScarletCharmz]

Haha SO SEXY!!! I love him! Even then he was amazing.

[Freeway514]

mmmm....

[MsKirtaki]

It's kinda weird to watch now, after you've seen the movie. And it's like he's only moves his eyebrows, otherwise not much of emotion.

[Freeway514]

heh heh he he... HUGH JACKMAN/ Logi-rine!!!! yay!

[perkrowa]

on jest pięęęęęęęęęęękny

[Adnama109]

Wow. Handsome and talented, and faithful in his marriage. What an awesome and rare package.

[bvangeem26]

great insight to how to be successful in an audtion for actors out there.

[paulinastepien]

Kocham Cię!!!!! I love you

[anniecakes661]

My God he is beautiful.

[Americangal18]

@anniecakes661 I know. I would kill for the chance to work with him.

[Fillionfan400]

@anniecakes661 I so totally agree! I have a huge crush on him!

[ish29]

He's not really changed much has he?! We still see that same old Hugh! Love him!

[llevilinsidell]

Thank you for upload !!!!

[Lobeznagirl]

Thank you very much for this video!

He is sooo adorable!

:-)

[calanais06]

THANK YOU! I´ve heard about this clip and wanted to see it a long time! He´s so beautiful it´s almost unbearable to watch him... It´s interesting to see it when we all know what a success the movies have been and what a STAR he is today!

[Potter3000]

He's so good and hot!!

[chrishot10]

I wonder, had Hugh even imagined that after this movie he would become a big screen icon?...
