On a recent windy afternoon, hundreds of Chinese fans gathered outside a building at Beijing's 798 Art Zone, where Hollywood actors Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart were promoting their film, Logan.

In nearly 20 years, Jackman has built Wolverine, aka Logan, as one of the most loved superheroes.

Logan is said to be the last time when he will be seen in the role.

The film was released simultaneously in North America and China on Friday.

Jackman, an Australian-born actor, says he is sad to part with the character.

"I'm not a quite decisive person. But for big things, I'm usually quite clear. A couple of years ago, I knew I should pass on the character to someone else," he says.
