The third Wolverine film, which hits theaters early 2017, will sadly be Hugh Jackman's eighth (possibly ninth or tenth) and final performance as the iconic mutant. At San Diego Comic-Con, Jackman unveiled the first teaser image from the James Mangold-directed sequel, and not long after, he took to Facebook to ask fans what they would like to see in Wolverine's final adventure, which will also star the original Charles Xavier, Patrick Stewart.

During a recent appearance on the Sydney Confidential podcast, Jackman took a few moments to tease a few of the responses he received and what we may see in the highly anticipated sequel:

Sydney Confidential: "When you tweeted about Wolverine 3 the other day, the response was huge!"

Hugh Jackman: "Yeah, unbelievable."

SC: "Give me something about Wolverine, what's happening? you bringing it back to Australia? The story..?"

Jackman: "There were a lot of calls for Victor Creed to come back, there was... I must admit I was quite heartened by a number of people saying please don't make it the last, but I'm really excited about this last one, and if you're a comic book fan, then the words 'berserker rage' came up a lot, so if you know Wolverine, you'll understand."

Considering this is Wolverine's last ride, the return of long-time adversary Victor Creed, played most recently by Liev Schreiber, would likely be a welcome addition, although it is probably still a little too early to say whether we'll actually see him or not. As for the berserker rage, almost all Wolverine fans will probably agree that they would love to see the beloved mutant tear his enemies limb from limb one last time before he rides off into the sunset.

For those of you unfamiliar, the berserker rage is a state of mind where Wolverine, generally in close combat situations, will lash out with the intensity and agression of an enraged animal and become even more resistant to psionic attacks. We've seen a few teases of Wolverine's berserker rage throughout the course of the franchise, specifically in 2003's X2 and more recently, in the Unleashed Extended Edition for 2013's The Wolverine.

Sabretooth and the berserker rage are a good start, but let's hope the classic costume and/or some classic villains, Omega Red perhaps, were on the long list of responses as well. What else would you guys like to see? Sound off with your thoughts below!

@KingPatel

AMEN!!!!!!

Please showcase that in this final movie!

CherryBomb - 8/17/2015, 8:52 AM

Origins was a horrifically awful movie,
But the cast was fantastic.

Danny Huston as Stryker, Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth,
And of course, Lynn Collins as Silver Fox!

Dotanuki - 8/17/2015, 8:52 AM

I go into every new Wolverine/X-Men movie with the hope that they'll portray the character closer to the comic book incarnation. Less crying this time, please.

JoeMomma29 - 8/17/2015, 8:54 AM

@Gusto

That is how I feel when you dress up in drag.......

Bladezer0 - 8/17/2015, 8:55 AM

Please!!! Make Vitor more animalistic!

DarkAvengers09 - 8/17/2015, 8:56 AM

If they can make Deadpool look like he walked right out of the comicbook panel in that awesome suit, they can pull it off with Wolverine. Just do it already. He'll have played wolverine for 17 years by the time this movie is released.

Reasonnnn - 8/17/2015, 8:56 AM

THE WOLVERINE had a really solid first two acts. That ninja battle in the 3rd act was so disappointing; he didn't even get to kill many!

grif - 8/17/2015, 8:56 AM

fox is not totally pissed with trank. he can sell the movie tickes at the booth.

MrCBM56 - 8/17/2015, 8:58 AM

I'm almost positive he's going to don the suit.

JoeMomma29 - 8/17/2015, 9:01 AM

@Gusto

I have seen worse.......ummmmm McGee!

Timerider84 - 8/17/2015, 9:01 AM

Wear the suit, even if it's during the credits. It can be the last shot, film him coming out of the dark in the suit and slash at the camera, then the end.

rabid - 8/17/2015, 9:01 AM

Origins is still my favorite comic book film. It's cheesy, but not any cheesier than it's comics. The Wolverine was great until the end, and Harada served no purpose being there at all. I'm hoping for some Canada vs Russia fights in this new one.

JoeMomma29 - 8/17/2015, 9:02 AM

@Grif

May I suggest this book for you?

Sephiroth - 8/17/2015, 9:05 AM

@MrCBM56 I sure hope so...would love to see him in the suit

JoeMomma29 - 8/17/2015, 9:07 AM

Here is a baddie I am hoping for........

BlackStar25 - 8/17/2015, 9:08 AM

"Origins is still my favorite comic book film."

demonizer84 - 8/17/2015, 9:08 AM

how about just make this one good, dont overload it with other mutants, and cut out the cheese, i cant believe how disappointed i was with the last movie, and the super shredder making an appearance

Kevwebsz - 8/17/2015, 9:12 AM

Wear the dam costume. We need to see that thing in action at least once.

Omega - 8/17/2015, 9:13 AM

"Origins is still my favorite comic book film."

sKeemAn - 8/17/2015, 9:13 AM

Man do I need to see a true berserker rage. Been waiting a long time to see that and the Wolverine costume.

JoeMomma29 - 8/17/2015, 9:14 AM

@rabid

LOL! Well we are all allowed one or two guilty pleasures one of mine is Elektra but I am not sure if I would ever say it is my favorite CBM................

LeeroyJenkins - 8/17/2015, 9:14 AM

i highly doubt they give him his costume, it would be pretty [frick]ing dumb for him to finally get his costume in his last appearance

sKeemAn - 8/17/2015, 9:14 AM

All he has to do is put the mask on. Fans will go insane.

Pathogen - 8/17/2015, 9:15 AM

hmm...beserker rage. You mean we won't get the watered down version of Wolverine? Just the moderately moist, pg13 version?

Yay. Another crapfest

jerryblake - 8/17/2015, 9:15 AM

i didn't like Shreiber as Sabretooth so if they would go with recast i wouldn't mind.
To be fair Shreiber is a good actor. The Sabretooth wasn't just the role for him.
Ok ... the script did not help either ;)

sKeemAn - 8/17/2015, 9:16 AM

A sabretooth appearance would be extremely welcome. I'd also like to see Omega Red as the the villain.
