Hugh Jackman Sparks Wolverine Rumors with Gym Training Session

Fans have gone wild over a video showing Hollywood superstar Hugh Jackman doing some ‘heavy lifting’ in a particularly tough gym workout.

In the short clip, shared to the 56-year-old Australian-born’s social media, the Wolverine star can be seen doing a ‘trap bar deadlift’ which is typically used to build lower body and back strength. 

Hugh can be seen raising the heavily loaded bar seven times, while a trainer can be heard off screen talking him through the strenuous looking moves.

And fans rushed to the Instagram post with comments speculating that Hugh is already in training for his next Wolverine movie – though no film has been announced.

‘Why you getting in shape Hugh?’ messaged one user on the song and dance man’s post.

‘Huh? Huh? Got anything to do with a certain company making you do a certain something until you’re 90?’ they joked in reference to Hugh’s signature role as Marvel’s Wolverine superhero.

Other fans jumped on the ’till your 90′ bandwagon in the comments, a reference to the fact that Hugh has played the Wolverine character 10 times in 10 movies since 2000.

‘Remember… you’re doing Wolverine until you’re 90,’ joked another user, while one fan simply commented: ’90’.

Others suggested that Hugh was in training so he could reprise his Wolverine character in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday which is currently underway with Chris Hemsworth and Robert Downey Jr.

‘We know you’re in Doomsday,’ suggested one fan on Hugh’s post.

‘Getting Wolvready,’ agreed a Hugh enthusiast.

Meanwhile, many commented on Hugh’s buff physique, with one fan messaging the Deadpool and Wolverine star: ‘Hugh Jackman X huge jacked man.’

It comes after Hugh was recently spotted for the first time since finalising his divorce from his ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness.

The usually cheerful screen and stage star appeared sombre as he jetted into LaGuardia Airport in New York City on Wednesday, just two days after Daily Mail revealed his divorce had been filed.

Hugh kept a low profile in a black cap and face mask as he pushed his suitcase through the airport.

He dressed casually for the flight in a navy polo shirt, black shorts and a pair of comfortable green sneakers.

The actor held a backpack as he rushed through the terminal and made his way to an awaiting car.

Daily Mail revealed on Tuesday that Hugh and Deborra-Lee, 69, had finalised their divorce a month after filing.

A judgment of divorce was filed on June 12, making it official. The document, however, was not made public until June 23.

The divorce was essentially disposed of two weeks ago, but the judge needed to sign off on the judgment after a proposed judgment was entered.

Daily Mail has reached out to Hugh and Deborra-Lee’s reps for comment.

Deborra-Lee, who has two adopted children with the Wolverine actor, has received a ‘handsome spousal support payment,’ according to an insider, who previously spoke to Daily Mail.

‘A settlement was reached that Deborra is pleased with which includes a handsome spousal support payment,’ they revealed.

‘There was some back and forth regarding this financial agreement but, in the end, she got what she believed she deserved. Both are coming out of this financially secure.

‘There is not going to be any drama with this gives closure that she needed.’

Last month, Daily Mail exclusively broke the news of Hugh and Deborra-Lee filing for divorce to officially terminate their 27-year marriage.

Hugh has been dating his former The Music Man co-star Sutton Foster for months, although the timeline of when they began dating has never been confirmed.
