Hugh Jackman says he's finished playing Wolverine, but that doesn't mean Hollywood is finished with Wolverine. Don't ask him how, but Conan O'Brien was able to get his hands on the audition tapes of several stars who want to be Jackman's replacement, including Michael Sheen (who chose to give the character a James Bond twist) and Nick Offerman (he had the hair down, but that was about it). Larry King actually has a fighting chance if they decide to make Wolverine a talk show host, but the clear winner is Betty White, who already comes equipped with the claws. Watch the video below.
