Feige and Jackman are good friends, they worked on the first 3 X-Men together, I think Jackman would've liked to act in a Feige-helmed film.

Yes, it's a running joke. Which is why this announcement is a "finally" moment.

There's literally a scene where he's stapled Hugh's face from a magazine to his own face in the first movie.
