He further talked about being left in awe by the amazing ending for Hugh’s character. “And went, ‘Oh my god, what an amazing ending for Hugh as this character.’ And there are only a handful of examples where an actor so associated with a character can go out perfectly.

Logan concludes with a scene where Hugh’s ‘Wolverine’ succumbs to his injuries after a fierce battle. All while his clone daughter Laura (X-23) is by his side.
