X-Men: Days of Future Past is coming out soon, so the rounds of interviews continue. This time, stars Hugh Jackman, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy answered questions from fans. Fassbender asks Jackman who else he'd like to see Wolverine (after himself, of course). 

Jackman doesn't really give a straight answer—he doesn't want to give them any ideas—but he actually admits that when it was first being cast, he actually thought Heath Ledger would be great. We're not quite sure we see it, but that's probably because Jackman himself is so iconic in the role. And, to be fair, everyone (including us) was skeptical when Ledger was cast as the Joker, and look how that turned out.

He does have another suggestion for X-Men: Blades of Fury, though. Maybe it'sll make for a Funny or Die video, at the very least.
