Hugh Jackman Performs 'Wolverine: The Musical' Song

No, it's not 1 April already and we're not trying to pull a fast one - Hugh Jackman really has recorded a musical-style number about The Wolverine.

The Hollywood hunk, 45, laid down the not-entirely serious track for Radio 1's Matt Edmondson - and the impressive result has now been posted on the station's YouTube channel.

Edmondson penned a set of alternative lyrics for the song Who Am I, which Jackman famously performed in hit musical Les Miserables.

They included: "Who am I/ Am I a superhero with some claws/ Or just an actor searching for applause/ Wolverine has all the fans/ But what about Hugh Jackman/ Who am I"

Enjoying the experience and stifling a giggle from time to time, the actor clearly puts all his effort into it - waving his arms about and showing off his gym-honed biceps (which are also referenced in the song).

A new Wolverine movie was recently confirmed for 2017.
