“No, I, I love my job. And I love Wolverine,” Hugh said (via Variety). “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 continued about how he achieved the look, “So no, I just did it the old school way. And I tell you, I’ve eaten more chickens. I’m so sorry to all the vegans and vegetarians, and to the chickens of the world. Literally the karma is not good for me. If the deity has anything related to chickens, I’m in trouble.”
