Okay, when I perused SHH! today and saw a story about Hugh Jackman in Superman Returns, I almost put my fist through my computer. Well, that would have been bad since I’m at work, but another X-Men star? Gah!!

Thankfully, I continued reading and have since calmed down a bit. The Herald-Sun Newspaper in Australia is reporting today that Hugh Jackman has signed on to be Clark Kent’s adoptive father in the film. Since the old man died in Superman, obviously he will appear in flashback scenes; unless he’s really cool and learned how to become one with the force just before he died.

This small part will probably take just a couple of days to shoot so I along with all other X-Men fans can relax in the knowledge that X-Men 3 and Wolverine are in the safe hands of Matthew Vaughn. Great, now I’m mad again.
