ADR, or Additional (or Automatic) Dialogue Recording (or Replacement), is an essential part of filmmaking. Especially in action movies, filled with punches landing on jaws and loud howls of pain from all variety of violence. And no actor has made the ADR recordings for action scenes more iconic than Hugh Jackman. Videos of his sessions for his previous two decades as Wolverine have made the rounds online for years, and let’s just say, Hugh really gets into it. Now, Hugh Jackman has added to his legendary ADR glory in the latest behind-the-scenes video shared by Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy, which you can watch right here:

In between every few grunts and groans, we hear a good F-bomb tossed in for good measure. Remember, those original X-Men movies Jackman starred in were all PG-13. So he didn’t get drop many curse words in them, let alone that curse word. He got to tell Charles Xavier and Magneto to “Go f— yourselves” in X-Men: First Class, true. But he really didn’t get to unleash the beast until Logan. That was his first official R-rated turn as Wolverine. So with Deadpool & Wolverine, he gets to curse like a sailor. And hey, Logan is 200 years old, he was a sailor at some point in his life, right?

All kidding aside, Hugh Jackman just proved he always goes in with full gusto when it comes to the character of Logan. Even after almost a quarter-century of playing him. This is probably why no one else has played the character in live-action besides him (Henry Cavill cameo notwithstanding). Well, except for Australian pop star Troye Sivan, who played young Logan in X-Men: Origins Wolverine way back in 2009. (There’s a bit of trivia for ya). It’s going to take someone truly special to wear those claws in the MCU when Jackman decides to retire for real.
