Hugh Jackman shows off buff body

Be still our beating hearts!

Filming is currently underway for the next Marvel instalment of Wolverine so it’s no wonder Hugh Jackman is so damn buff.

He posted this picture of him working out on Instagram with the caption “Let’s do this!” and it looks like he’s got all the makings of his clawed mutant alter-ego Wolverine – the beard, the veiny muscles, the fierce stare…

Hugh once told Oprah that in preparing for his role, he has to do constant workouts and eat 6,000 calories each day.

“He [Dwayne Johnson] went through the diet. It was 6,000 calories, eating every two hours.”

“It was like, two chicken breasts, steamed broccoli, beans and maybe some carbs.”

The 47-year-old has played the hot-tempered character eight times so far and has announced that this will be his last run.

The film will be released in 2017 and will star Patrick Stewart and Elise Neal.

Can you just imagine what his biceps are going to look like on the big screen?

Whoah.
