Additional Dialogue Recording (ADR) — whether Automatic or Replacement, is as quintessential to silver screen magic as popcorn is to cinema aisles. Particularly in the universe of action flicks, where every booming bellow of pain and cracking sound of a fist meeting a jaw needs just the right audio touch. One actor who stands out in making these soundbites iconic is none other than Hugh Jackman. Snippets of his fervent ADR recordings for action sequences, especially from his twenty year-long stint as Wolverine, have been circulating online, turning into a thing of awe. And for good measure, they capture Hugh, as avid fans would tell you, in his most “Wolverine” state. What’s the scoop this time? Hugh Jackman has boosted his ADR prowess a notch higher in the latest behind-the-scenes video presented by Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy.

The Beast Reins Free

The video promises a liberal sprinkle of grunts and groans, punctuated by a perfectly timed F-bomb. For those well-acquainted with Jackman’s Wolverine going on berserk sprees in the earlier not-so-PG13 X-Men flicks, the rare display of raw language adds a unique flavor. Despite serving up a juicy “Go f— yourselves” to Charles Xavier and Magneto in X-Men: First Class, the liberty to freely cuss didn’t come for Jackman until Logan. Deadpool & Wolverine give the stoic, 200-year-old mutant a chance to curse like a sailor, which wouldn’t be that offbeat considering Logan’s exhaustive resume might as well include a stint as a seafarer.

The Undisputed Wolverine

Beyond the laughs, what Hugh Jackman reaffirms is his unyielding commitment to Wolverine. With nearly a quarter century under his belt, Jackman’s portrayal of Logan remains unrivaled, except of course for Australian pop star Troye Sivan’s 2009 rendition of young Logan in X-Men: Origins Wolverine (how’s that for trivia). The day Jackman hangs up his claws will indeed open the door for a new Wolverine in MCU, but those are going to be some very, very large boots to fill.
