Hugh Jackman has dropped his lead role in 'Avon Man' to start shooting the sequel to 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine,' reports Deadline. The film 'Avon Man' was originally scheduled to begin shooting in the spring of 2010, but filming was pushed back to October to accommodate Jackman's schedule. Although Jackman will no longer be appearing in the film, he will remain attached to 'Avon Man' as a producer along with John Palermo and Gary Forster, and plans to help find a new male lead for the film.
