Below the first clip that dwells on Logan’s childhood:
Outcasts
Logan having claws having in his childhood is faithful to the original comic book if you’re wondering. The project Weapon X may have infused his skeleton with Adamantium, but he already had his claws since his young age.
The two other Wolverine TV spots are now available.
Director Gavin Hood is helming the upcoming Wolverine movie starring Hugh Jackman as Logan aka Wolverine. We’ve got some new Wolverine pictures thanks to Spoiler TV:

Nice pictures showing Kevin Durand as the Blob:

Hard to believe that the fatty Blob above is indeed Kevin Durand who is a quite fit actor: don’t worry for his health that’s just disguise and make up.
You may remember Kevin Durand as one of the villains who attacked the island during the fourth season of Lost.
The movie X-Men Origins Wolverine will be released on May 1, 2009.

Fox is lucky to have Hugh Jackman as Logan aka Wolverine. He definitely epitomizes the uncontrollable mutant by now! Just take a look to this poster if you aren’t convinced yet:

This Wolverine movie dwells on the early life of Logan aka Wolverine. Project Weapon X is going to enrol him by force and will infuse his skeleton with adamantium, the indestructible alloy.
Do you think that the Hugh Jackman tries to use the adamantium claws of his Marvel avatar when getting mad at people? Maybe he does unconsciously! I know I would (maybe I do already…).
:)
Extensive reshoot being done for Wolverine is causing a stir online. I won’t develop here: I think it is a pointless controversy, yep much ado about nothing… I bet that actually most people will enjoy this Wolverine movie at the end and I’m confident that Hugh Jackman will be right eventually when he says:
” [...] Please rest assured that WOLVERINE will be badass and hopefully meet all of your expectations. [...] “
Hugh Jackman really epitomizes Wolverine by now: hard to imagine any other actor taking over the role. If I ever meet Jackman in the street I’d almost expect to see him showing off his adamantium claws!
;-P
There is a new Wolverine trailer in front of Keanu Reeves’ Earth Stood Still. A valorous fellow fans just leaked online a bootleg Wolverine movie trailer:
I really hope they will spend some time on Logan’s childhood. I wonder if they will stick to the comic book concerning his origin. The addition of Gambit so early in Wolverine’s life, even if not really respecting the time line of the Marvel comic universe, is a good sign for the fans who are craving to see a Gambit spin-off movie.
The Wolverine movie will be released on May 1st, 2009. I bet throngs are going to queue in front of theaters to see the adamantium hero!
:)
Many are craving for a spin-off movie dedicated to gambit, but I’m not fan of the character. The idea of a stand-alone Gambit movie with Taylor Kitsch in the lead role would make the thing even less appealing… It would be definitely better if they keep their financial resources for Wolverine 2.
So let’s focus on a real Marvel hero: Wolverine!
If by any chance you know some Fox executives tell them to forget about the Gambit movie, and bring Wolverine 2!
:-/
The first Wolverine is maybe not yet out but get ready for Wolverine 2. In a recent interview given to MTV (here) Hugh Jackman, who plays the role Logan aka Wolverine in the upcoming X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie, has talked about the direction a Wolverine sequel may take:
Below a transcript where he talks about what should be done in the Wolverine movie sequel:
“The most intriguing thing to me was the Japan story. I love the Japan story. I wanted to do the Japan story from around X-Men 2. Can you just picture Wolverine in Japan with the triads and the samurai? It’s just genius. Comedically and dramatically, I thought, ‘This is awesome!’ But how can you do that before you explain his origins? If we tried to mix the origin and Japan together, it wouldn’t do justice to either. So you can tell by the answer where I’d like it to go.”
Hugh Jackman
I totally agree with Hugh Jackman: the Japan plot sounds damned appealing! I really want this japan story to go through for the Wolverine sequel.
I guess people will rush to theaters with even more enthusiasm! Hey, an awesome movie starring Keanu Reeves, and a trailer of Wolverine starring Hugh Jackman: that’s definitely something not to miss!
I wonder if this new Wolverine movie trailer will be the same as the one that leaked online a while ago… More probably a new Wolverine trailer I think.
:)
Hugh Jackman is Logan / Wolverine again in a prequel spin-off X-Men movie. The movie X-men Origins Wolverine should be released in May 2009.
The Wolverine trailer shown at Comic Con has leaked on the web, here it is:
Update: A bootleg version of the Wolverine trailer shown in front of The Day the Earth Stood Still is available at –> X-Men Origins Wolverine Bootleg Trailer
The Wolverine movie will blow us way for sure: it’s gonna be full of action! Wolverine is no hero for kids: he is an ambivalent hero whose deep character will captivate a more mature public.
