Hugh Jackman has almost become synonymous as the face of the X-Men hero and mutant Wolverine a.k.a Logan. But who would have thought that the actor has his own custom made fork shaped like a fist with three claws protruding out from between its knuckles.

Jackman revealed the fork on Instagram, saying; ‘Picture this… you’re having a conversation over breakfast. You reach in the kitchen drawer. You’re looking for a fork…’ and cue the reveal. Fans went crazy at the revelation and even though Jackman will no longer be portraying the Canadian mutant, he will surely go down in history as one of the most successful portrayals of the fan-favourite character.

Disney theme parks will allow staff to have visible tattoos and to wear gender-inclusive costumes in a new policy. Chairman Josh D’Amaro stated in a new post on the company’s website that the new policy will help create ‘a place where everyone is welcome’ and ‘create magic for everyone’. The new approach seeks to provide greater flexibility with ‘respect to forms of personal expression surrounding gender-inclusive hairstyles, jewellery, nail styles, and costume choices.’

Disney previously held strict rules on how workers look – beards were not even allowed until 2012. The chairman also stated that they are reimagining may attractions like Jungle Cruise. ‘There’s more to do’ he said, ‘but we’re committed to listening, learning, and making meaningful improvements.’
