Actor Hugh Jackman has reportedly signed on the dotted line to reprise the role of "The Wolverine" in three more films, two more spin-off films and "X-Men: Apocalypse".

The 45-year-old earlier expressed interest in shooting "Wolverine" films back-to-back as he would be physically fit to handle them one after the other, reports contactmusic.com

"It's much easier because it's tough to get there, physically, but once you're there, it's easier to maintain it," said Jackman.

The actor said shooting the movies back-to-back had "crossed his mind".
