(PG-13 content) New York-based filmmaker and editor Yoko Higuchi created this chill-inducing supercut tribute to actor Hugh Jackman’s legendary 17-year portrayal of Wolverine in nine X-Men films, from 2000-2017. The tribute is set to Johnny Cash’s cover of Nine Inch Nails’ “Hurt.”
“2017 marks the final time Hugh Jackman will portray the role of Wolverine after 17 years of playing the character in every single film in the X-Men franchise since the year 2000. Although the fans were vocal about how unhappy they were of his casting, he has now become iconic as the rage filled mutant we all came to know and love. Many of us can’t imagine anyone else playing the role because of what Hugh Jackman did with the character. He transcended acting and fully embodied the character.”
