A younger version of Wolverine anyway. But that doesn't make sense, Jackman was already in First Class.
"That’s one of the reasons I didn’t continue, because they didn’t listen to me. My plan was “First Class,” then second film was new young Wolverine in the 70’s to continue those characters, my version of the X-Men. So you’d really get to know all of them, and my finale was gonna be “Days of Future Past.” That was gonna be my number three where you bring them all… because what’s bigger than bringing in McKellen and Michael and Stewart and James and bringing them all together? When I finished the “Days of Future Past” script with it ready to go I looked at it and said, “I really think it would be fun to cast Tom Hardy or someone as the young Wolverine and then bring it all together at the end.” Fox read “Days of Future Past” and went “Oh, this is too good! We’re doing it now!” And I said, “Well what do you do next? Trust me you’ve got nowhere to go.” Then they did “Apocalypse” and it’s like… If you flip that ’round even it would have been better. Hollywood doesn’t understand pacing. Their executives are driving 100 miles-per-hour looking in the rear-view mirror and not understanding why they crash."

Tom Hardy as a young Wolverine? That wouldn’t have made any sense, not only because Wolverine doesn’t age and Tom Hardy is only nine years younger than Hugh Jackman, but as you said, we already saw Hugh Jackman in FC. I know Fox was known to make a lot of boneheaded decisions, but I don’t think I can really argue with their decision to go straight to DoFP. The way it played out worked perfectly fine.

That's a polite way to put it.

It makes sense. Because FIRST CLASS was a soft reboot and a second timeline.

Sums up the DCEU, the Dark Universe and the Amazing Spider-man movies. The DCEU was racing toward being The Avengers while ASM was rushing to The Sinister Six and other characters. Then you have Gwen Stacy, Felicia Hardy and Mary Jane (before cutting her) there, also.

Yeah, realized that but was too lazy to change it. Waited for someone to correct me.

Godzilla vs King Kong... then what? Ultraman? Heard of him, I think, but know nothing about him. How's he fit in with Godzilla?
