Sounds GREAT, Right?

This is what Hugh Jackman (Wolverine) had to say about it (via IGN interview):

"I would love to see [Wolverine] as part of The Avengers. Because there's a great dysfunction among that team, and I think Wolverine would fit right into that. He'd like that. There's no doubt he'd get in a fight with Hulk at some point. Those two bad, rage-filled characters are going to square off at some point. It would be quite fun. I don't know how much fun to shoot it would be because I'm sure I'd be on the worst end of it, but hey, he can heal."

Now that you're jumping up and down at that spectacle, let me bring you back to reality (begrudgingly). 

EVERYTHING that is part of the X-MEN franchise belongs to 20th Century Fox (Fox). This includes any known members of the X-Men, their nemeses, and the ver use of the word "mutant." Since Fox is a corporate competitor of DISNEY (owners of Marvel Studios and THE AVENGERS), Wolverine can NEVER cross this line. I've yet to mention that Wolverine is arguably the most popular character among the X-Men...no, he IS the most popular character. He has had 2 stand alone films, with a THIRD on the way!

Don't worry, I can already hear some you. "What about Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch?"

Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are sibling mutants who are in X-Men: Days of Future Past, AND the these twins will appear in the upcoming AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON (2015), a Marvel Studios film. A deal was made between the studios, because both agreed that the characters are ESSENTIAL to the plots of these different worlds. 

Keep in mind, in X-Men: DOFP, Pietro (Peter) Maximoff was never called "Quicksilver" in the movie and his sister was much younger than he was (they are twins). 

A BOLD PREDICTION is that Marvel Studios' version of Quicksilver will not be a "mutant" and he will only be called "Quicksilver." This seems the best way to keep the audience from IMPLODING.
