“O.K. guys, who was your favorite super hero when you were a kid”. Hugh seemed to like that question and I think anticipating a big smile at the punch line which of course I gave. Said he, “my favorite super hero growing up was Superman. I was ah … I was fond of the guy wearing his underwear outside his tights”. “Is there something we don’t know?”, I asked. Of course loved the pun. I have to tell ya - that man is testosterone from head to toe. “Had to work out even on set to stay in shape”, said Hugh. I did all to keep from blushing but I will say he is body beautiful!
And…so is Liev! “Who would have thought!” – I said to him. He too, worked out on the set of “X MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE”. But Liev has beefed up for years. He’s in mighty fine shape if I say so myself! Said he of his favorite superhero when he was a kid: “Comics were all clean and pretty until “Wolvelrine” came along. And then there was this taboo thing. And honestly for a 13, 14 year old boy at that time that was the closest thing to pornography there was. It was just naughty and so good and so…you know…it was out there! Every teenage kid, I think, thinks of himself as an outsider and “Wolverine” represented that.” .
And with that - the pecks have it.
