Hugh the Huntsman?

People like Hugh Jackman.
As my cousin's husband put it (I’m paraphrasing), "He's just a normal kinda guy; not some Hollywood asshole." You know, he’s not with that assessment. Jackman is one of the few actors I can think of who has very high marks from both men and women. Women want him around the house and do handy work, and wanna fuck his brains out. Guys want to hang out and have a beer with him, and some wanna fuck his brains out too.
But he's still riding all that good-will from the X-Men films (Can't think of many hits outside that franchise; one or two maybe), and honestly that well is about to go dry. He's in his mid-40s now and can't imagine it'll be too much longer he sports those adamantium-claws. I feel like he's been pushing so hard on The Wolverine as he has because he wants to exit that universe with a bang.
Since that sequel's been delayed indefinitely thanks to the departure of Darren Aronofsky and the tragedy in Japan, Jackman's schedule is wide open for the time being. Someone's gonna come along with a meaty offer, and according to "TOLDJA" it's Universal.
The studio has reportedly made an offer to the Australian actor for the male lead in Snow White & the Huntsman. If you'll remember, that role seemed all but locked for Viggo Mortensen until he mysteriously backed out; whatever the reason whether it was money or a conflicting schedule. He fits a similar enough "type" as Mortensen albeit way more assessable for an audience and just his charm/likeability factor.
If he accepts, he'll co-star along with Kristen Stewart as the half-other of the title duo and Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen with Rupert Sanders directing.
