Channing Tatum can play Wolverine: Hugh Jackman

London: Actor Hugh Jackman believes that Channing Tatum can replace him in `X-Men` movie series where he plays the role of `Wolverine`. The 45-year-old `Les Miserables` actor said that Tatum would be able to play the role if he himself decides to retire from the action series, reportedly,

"I don`t know who could play Wolverine but Channing Tatum could probably play him," he said. "I`ve got to admit, when I took on the role, I was 30. But I think I needed to be 40 before I really got it." Although his co-star James McAvoy who plays Professor Charles Xavier in the upcoming `X-Men: Days of Future Past` believes no one can replace Jackman. "Nobody could step into his shoes. They`ve got to retire the character when he finishes. When he is done with it, they will retire the character," McAvoy said.
