Hugh Jackman will play Wolverine for the last time in this year's Logan, and he's not the only one ending his X-Men role. Patrick Stewart also announced his retirement as Professor Charles Xavier. But only one of them can say it was a comedy legend who inspired his decision to quit his iconic role.
It turned out that Seinfeld spoke with him on the phone. While talking about his decision to end the role behind with Jimmy Fallon, Jackman shared the moment when he talked to Seinfeld on the phone, and here's how it went: "Look, when you're creating something it's very important not to run yourself dry. It's not about finishing on top necessarily, but making sure you creatively got something left, which propels you into whatever is next. "
This influenced Jackman's decision to bid farewell to his character, but I hope that Jackman's next step will be bigger than Seinfeld's The Bee Movie. You can watch the interview below:
