Steve caught up with Jackman at Sundance before the secret screening of his new film Eddie the Eagle, where he plays an Olympic skiing coach to an aspiring ski jumper played by Taron Egerton. During their conversation, Steve asked for an update on the screenplay, which we last heard was about the father/son relationship between Logan and Professor X: HUGH JACKMAN: We have a script. A full script. To tell you, two days ago I got that the full finished—well, it’s not finished, but we’re getting super close—as you can see by the rate of my facial hair. That might give you a good clue that perhaps…yeah, it’s sooner rather than later. TARON EGERTON: Also, the pecs are expanding as well. JACKMAN: I have had six meals today already.
