Actor Hugh Jackman has fulfilled his dream of becoming a Guinness World Records holder by being feted with the honour for having the longest career. The Wolverine star received the honour for Longest Career as a Live Action Marvel Superhero during a surprise presentation on British TV show This Morning on Wednesday.

Jackman, who has played the character for 16 years and 228 days, shares the honour with his X-Men cast-mate Sir Patrick Stewart, who has portrayed Professor Charles Xavier (Professor X) for the same amount of time.

“When I was a kid, the Guinness Book of Records was it... That’s it, I’ve made it! This is why I got into showbiz, thank you,” he said. —IANS
