AceShowbiz - Hugh Jackman may have just dropped interesting news for Marvel fans via his Twitter account. The 47-year-old actor, who has played fan-favorite superhero Wolverine for more than a decade, uploaded a photo which may hint at a future Wolverine movie.
The photo shows the clawed-mutant depicter facing the camera with his hand pointing at a metal prop with four claws. "4??????? #Wolverine," he captioned the photo. Does this mean that Jackman will be back as the clawed mutant in a fourth Wolverine movie?"

— Hugh Jackman (@RealHughJackman) 6 Januari 2016Unfortunately this probably isn't a tease of his return for another Wolverine film after "The Wolverine 3". It looks like Jackman was just taking a look at some old movie props and the one in the photo is from Bruce Lee's film "Enter the Dragon". The claw which was used by Han, a character played by Kien Shih in the classic film, was sold at auction in April 2013 at over $20,000.
Jackman previously said that the third Wolverine solo movie would be the last movie in which he would don his adamantium claws. In addition to declaring his retirement, Jackman suggested that Tom Hardy would be a great candidate to replace him. "I think Tom Hardy would be a great Wolverine," Jackman said back in September 2015. "Wolverine 3" will be directed by James Mangold, with Lauren Shuler Donner tapped as producer. The movie is scheduled for a release in the U.S. on March 3, 2017.
