HUGH Jackman sent his fans into a concerned frenzy last night after posting a snap of himself looking old and frail.

The Aussie star shared a photo of him posing by some fish in what looks like a log cabin with the caption: “Now that’s what I’m talking about.”

The 47-year-old looked very different to the fresh-faced, handsome star from earlier in the year when he promoted his movie Eddie The EagleThe Sun reported.

Fan left comments for the star sharing their concern over his slimmer and more aged appearance.

One wrote, “What happened to you Hugh? You are looking much older than your age … please take care … not looking healthy at all … pls.”

Another said: “Are you feeling well? Prays and positive thoughts your way just in case. Cheers.”

However, diehard fans of Wolverine, the mutant Marvel character Jackman has brought to life through the X-Men franchise, knew instantly that he was probably just still in make-up.
One fan wrote: “He is playing old man Logan so he is likely wearing extra makeup to look older since he is playing an older Wolverine.”
And another added: “Don’t worry. That’s just a “Makeup” for Wolverine 3 movie.”

The father-of-two has reprised the role for the eighth and final time for the third Wolverine film, which will be based on the ‘Old Man Logan’ comic books.

The movie will follow the hero living out his final days after surviving the extinction of the X-Men and will also see Patrick Stewart reprising his role as Professor X.

Producer Simon Kinberg has revealed that it will be an 18-rated film with a “violent” and “western tone”.

He added: “It’s a very radical, bold, different Wolverine than you’ve ever seen in any of these movies.

“It takes place in the future, and as you and others have reported, it is an R-rated movie. It’s violent; it’s kind of like a western in its tone. It’s just a very cool, different film.”
