Taron Egerton says rumours linking him to the role of Wolverine are "strange" and feel "like a joke".
The Kingsman: The Secret Service star is regularly hit by gossip suggesting he could be in line to take over the X-Men character from Hugh Jackman - who has played Wolverine onscreen in various movies since 2000 - but Taron is adamant the speculation isn't based on anything solid and it resurfaces every time he strips off in a film.
