@Darren Jackman nah, we need somethinh different. There has never been the same kind of 'Joker' on the big screen. So with the next Wolverine, they should also do something different. Cast a smaller, but still muscular fella.

Get this man an oscar

[@MeyaRoseGirl]

Well, since an Oscar is all about who you know, and Hollywood loves him... he's totally got that EGOT in the bag.

[@D.C.626]

I saw him in his first one-man show when he came to Toronto and LOVED IT. As a big fan of musicals in general and adoring Hugh as Wolverine, it was extraordinary to see him perform (this was before he was cast in Les Miserables)

He should've won an Oscar for Jean Valjean in Les Misérables, damn it make this man an EGOT already!

[@bettersecret1499]

He is missing the easiest one for him to get so..he is going to be an EGOT in the future

[@kareninacarado]

I thought the Oscar is the hardest one to get? That’s why they said they positioned it as EGOT - the Emmy is the easiest because there are so many categories and nominees, the Tony is the hardest because you don’t always perform every season.

[@MultiOleshka]

He is so versatile
