Jackman had a physique, unlike anyone in the ‘X-Men‘ and ‘Wolverine.’
As the character was strong as steel, the actor had to work out. But some speculated that he took steroids to get those muscles.
However, the Australian actor said that he never took steroids to transform into a character.
“Over the years people have wondered, did he juice?” Wallace questioned. “Did he take steroids?”
The actor denied it and said that he loves his job and the character. “I got to be careful what I say here, but I had been told anecdotally what the side effects are of that.
And I was like, ‘I don’t love it that much,’” he said. He said that he did it the “old school way” and ate a lot of chicken to beef up.
Jackman studied wolves as he didn't know Wolverine was a comic-book character.
Jackman will be reprising the role in the third installment of 'Deadpool.'
