Truthfully, while Hugh Jackman is a great actor and one of my faves, I was always disappointed in the big screen version of the character.

Wolverine is a short (5' 2-3") ball of muscle mass. He isn't tall and lean. He also has animal-like senses of hearing and smell that the movies downplay too often. Finally, his fighting style is supposed to be less "brawler" and more martial artist. In comics, due to his small stature, he jumps and flips around a lot, striking then evading.

I began X-men comic reading in the late 80's but the early 90's introduced me to some of the greatest artists (Jim Lee, Todd McFarlane, Fabian and others) in comic book history. Those guys dominated Marvel until the big walkout wherein Image Comics was born.

Sorry, nerd rant over, lol. Tyler isn't a horrible choice but one of my top contenders for a Wolverine role would be (Bane-sized) Tom Hardy.
