The Wolverine (character) is known for being *ahem* "not tall", but rather compact and aggressive, as is his namesake (35 to 40 pound wolverines have been known to take on grizzlies). Sort of the "little man" syndrome personified. And in your mind, a 6'2", 190lb hulking Australian towering over all the other X-Men is an "obvious" choice to you?

Interdasting.

ETA: Clint - fricking jinx, my guy

There were plans to have him play Bond while he was on Remington Steele but those fell apart because of the RS shooting schedule.

It didn't happen, but Justin Theroux was born to play Joel on TLOU.

I could have sworn he was in Swordfish before X Men, but that’s wrong.

Was Jackman really cast as Wolverine off of his work in Australia?

All I got.

Whoever said Tobey as Spider-man is a great answer I almost thought of that one.
