Brace yourself. After more than a decade, Hugh Jackman is ready to hang up his adamantium claws and bid the Wolverine days goodbye. Last month, the actor posted a picture of the trademark claws on Instagram and captioned it: “Wolverine...one last time, HJ”. Since then, speculations have been rife that the actor who plays the clawed mutant in the X-Men franchise, will not stick around for much longer. However, it remains unclear whether Jackman will make his final appearance in X-Men: Apocalypse which is scheduled for a 2016 release or save it for The Wolverine 3 which is expected to make it’s way to the theatres in 2017. We give you a lowdown of other actors who quit franchises which helped them scale heights in their career.
