Hugh Jackman Swaps Avon for Wolverine

Hugh Jackman has pulled out of a girlie role in new movie Avon Man to concentrate on bulking up for the next Wolverine blockbuster.

The Australian hunk had signed up to play an unemployed car dealer who swaps motors for cosmetics and becomes Avon's top selling door-to-door rep.

But Jackman has now quit the project, which was due to start filming this autumn, and will instead focus on preparing to reprise his role as a muscled mutant in a sequel to last year's X-Men Origins: Wolverine, according to Deadline.com.

Jackman will still act as a producer on Avon Man as movie bosses search for a replacement.
