Hugh Jackman shared a sweet story about his reunion with Ke Huy Quan 24 years after the two worked together on X-Men, which introduced Jackman’s Wolverine.
The actor posted a photo of him and Quan at Kevin Feige’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony with a voiceover, recounting what it was like for the two of them to see each other again for the first time in over two decades.
“One of the things about the movie being released is so many moments are happening that are making me appreciate the 25 years that I’ve been playing Wolverine,” the Les Misérables star said about Deadpool & Wolverine. “I saw Ke Huy Quan — and of course, he won an Oscar recently, and his story is incredible, and his career is incredible — and we saw each other, and we embraced because we worked together on X-Men.”
Jackman explained the Loki actor was on the stunt team of the 2000 film, and he was incredible. “That’s really where I learned a lot, a lot about how to do action movies, and how to do stunts, and it was just really cool to see him again and to reconnect,” the Logan star said.
Quan also posted about their reunion all these years later on his social media, sharing one of his now-famous selfies with Jackman. He began the caption by saying that he saw Deadpool & Wolverine, and it was “awesome.”
“Ran into Hugh Jackman recently,” he continued. “The last time I saw him was 24 yrs ago on the set of X-men when he first trained as Wolverine. He is just as nice as I remembered. Huge congratulations to @thehughjackman @vancityreynolds and the entire Deadpool team on a record opening. Bravo.”
Deadpool & Wolverine is in theaters now.
