Wolverine: Hugh Jackman ALMOST missed out on iconic X-Men role to Mission Impossible star

According to a report from Variety at the time, the injury pushed back Scott’s next film, Mission: Impossible II.

The report reads: “The shoot has gone longer than expected, and Scott lost a few days with a shoulder injury.”

With director Bryan Singer pushing back Wolverine’s scenes until later in the shoot, everybody was holding out hope that Scott would be able to wrap up filming his role.

Unfortunately, the delay was just one too many for the Mission: Impossible production, and 20th Century Fox were forced to bring Jackman on board.
