We’ve all heard that Jennifer Lawrence is on her last go round with the blue body paint, and now a far more familiar face may be leaving the X-Men film franchise.

For the last 15 years Hugh Jackman has been synonymous with the character of Wolverine, through good times and bad. But, if this caption on his instagram account is accurate, he’ll be stalking off into the sunset soon too.

WOLVERINE …ONE LAST TIME. HJ

While this is sad, I’m not surprised. It has been 15 years and while Logan himself is ageless, there is a marked difference in Jackman’s appearance from the first films to the most recent ones. And they’ve been using the recent more timey-wimey movies as a way to bring in fresh blood to play established characters. Now we have to wait to hear which up and comer will be brought in to don the adamantium claws. Suggestions are welcome, but I can assure you they will not be heeded.
