Hugh Jackman as Wolverine

Hugh Jackman playing the adamantium skeleton mutant for the last time in the upcoming and yet to be titled Wolverine movie is currently one of the hottest debates in the comic book movie world.

Whether that means he'll also part company with the X-Men universe or that Jackman will grace the future films with brief cameos, that's not clear yet.

In the meanwhile, we've learned why he decided to call it quits. It seems that it's mostly a personal choice. "It just felt like it was the right time to do it", said the Australian actor immediately after the announcement.

Then we learned Hugh Jackman's choice was backed up by friend Jerry Seinfeld, who advised him to "finish on a high note".

Is that all? A decision made on the spur of the moment? Here's how Hugh Jackman has recently amended his comments on this matter.

Hugh Jackman and his diets

Entertainment Tonight caught up with Hugh Jackman a couple of weeks ago. And here's what they managed to pull from the X-Men star.

"It was a gut feeling… and I never liked to be the last guy at a party. There’s nothing worse, right?" So, clearly, another reference to the fact it was a personal choice.

But speaking of "gut": Hugh Jackman is a notoriously thorough actor, trying not only to play his characters, but also to become them. To own them. In respect to Wolverine, he trained and trained such as to acquire the physique of mutant of Wolverine's ilk.

But training also came with some dieting in tail. And, apparently, it involved a lot of egg whites. Hugh Jackman's confession continues like this: "It was a gut feeling…I don’t know how many more egg white omelettes I can eat.

In all likelihood, it's more of a metaphor rather than anything else, right? Stay tuned, we'll bring you the hottest scoop on all things Wolverine!
