The return of Hugh Jackman as the Wolverine in one of the biggest superhero films of the year, Deadpool & Wolverine was loved by the audiences.  The box office success of the film has been making headlines as Jackman reprised his role of adamantium-clawed mutant superhero Logan/Wolverine in the 34th movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe alongside Ryan Reynolds’ Wade Wilson/Deadpool. While Deadpool & Wolverine is one of Jackman’s recent major successes, let’s relive the best Hugh Jackman movies ranked according to IMDb ratings.

Born on 12 October 1968 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia to English parents who migrated Down Under a year before his birth, Jackman was interested in acting from a very young age. His first professional role was King Arthur, in a theatrical production of Camelot. But this star did not truly rise until the Australian miniseries Correlli (1995). After that, he never looked back. In 2000, he made his Hollywood debut in X-Men and played the role that has basically become synonymous with him. The rest, as they say, is History.

Hugh Jackman’s career goes beyond his role as Wolverine

While his most well-known role remains Wolverine,  Hugh Jackman has played many other interesting characters and has been in some excellent movies that do not come under the umbrella of X-Men. Perhaps the best film he has been a part of is a Christopher Nolan movie, The Prestige (2005) where he plays the role of Robert Angier alongside Christian Bale as Alfred Borden, two magicians whose rivalry in 1890s London becomes an obsession and leads to tragic consequences.

Another movie that features an incredible Hugh Jackman performance is X-Men: Days of Future Past, perhaps the best X-Men movie that is not Logan. In this parallel universe movie, Jackman’s Logan or Wolverine Travels back in time to undo a wrong that would save both mutants and humans from a destructive fate.
