Hugh Jackman spielt die Rolle, die ihn berühmt gemacht hat in einem WOLVERINE-SOLO-Film, der als Spin-Off zu den drei X-Men-Filmen gedacht ist, und sich auf Wolverine und seine Geschichte konzentriert. Jackman wird den Film auch produzieren!

WOLVERINE doesn't exactly come after X3 so what happens to him is not terribly relevant to his own movie. We did talk about a couple of characters that they wanted to save for the WOLVERINE movie spin-off. I can't tell you who they are, but there was really only one we wanted to use for X3, and they said they're not going to have a big enough part to risk losing them for WOLVERINE. Sabretooth will be in there, but I don't know in what form. I think his relationship with Wolverine is under explored.
Klingt nach Gambit und Sabretooth als Support-Cast!

Wolverine kommt schon 2007!!! Dann sollten sie aber mal langsam anfangen!
Zitat:
The promise of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine headlining a spinoff of 20th Century Fox's "X-Men" franchise next year was a highlight of Day 2 here at Cine Expo.
20th Century Fox promised the gathered exhibitors a Jackman starrer titled "Wolverine" for next year and Jackman himself sent the show a taped promise to back up the news.

Re: Fakten & Gerüchte: WOLVERINE
Lauren Shuler Donner über den Beginn und den Status der Dreharbeiten:
"Next, we're going to do 'Wolverine,' but not before the end of the year because he's in the Baz Luhrmann film," she says of the filmmaker's untitled Australian epic with Nicole Kidman. However, "We have the script and are working on it."

Die Gerüchte sind aber wiedersprüchlich. Erst letztens habe ich irgndwo gelesen, dass es schlecht aussehen würde für einen Release 2007, dass man wohl eher auf einen Release im Frühjahr / Sommer 2008 anstrebe.
ComingSoon.net/Superhero Hype! caught up with The Prestige star Hugh Jackman, who gave us an update on his upcoming "X-Men" spinoff, Wolverine.
"We've now signed off on the script. If you know about the history of 'X-Men' movies, that's a revolution for us. We're a year away from shooting the film and we have the script," Jackman said. "And, by the way, it is unbelievable. It's a David Benioff script. He's probably the hottest writer going around town, and he was beating down our door to write this movie. It was the most amazing thing. So, we have this fantastic script. I've got a couple of movies coming out in the next month, and I might be able to tell you who the director is by then. We're seriously into talking about it now."
He added that Wolverine will definitely be a prequel but will not follow the Japanese storyline that comic books have addressed.
"At present, no. That is still something we really want to do. What we need to do is establish who he is and find out how he became Wolverine," he explained.
Jackman said he is also interested in making a sequel to Wolverine. "I'm not ruling it out," he smiled.

"Make my day, Bub!"
Zitat:
"I don't want the film to appear at all like X-Men 4 in disguise. I want it to feel like a very fresh, whole new character piece. I want it to be a character movie. And by the end of the movie, I want it to be that you definitely knew who this guy was. Cool action, great characters, but ultimately that you totally know who Wolverine is. Like Mad Max and Dirty Harry. Characters I loved. He's a good guy, but he's not a nice guy. He's just the guy you want on your side. [David] really got that. He's one of the best character writers in Hollywood. He totally got it."

Singer an Wolverine?

'Zephyr' is back with a scoop on the comic book adaptation front regarding some guy named Bryan Singer, wonder who that might be:
"Bryan Singer, along with executive producer Chris Lee and producer Jon Peters, are currently in Honolulu not only celebrating Lee's birthday but also discussing the next Superman movie. Pre-production is slated to start as early as sometime mid-to-late next year, the location thereof to still be determined.
However, this is a little more interesting. A Honolulu newspaper stated that Singer has in fact been approached for a potential fourth X-Men movie, though he said he simply couldn't squeeze in a large-scale project before the next Superman.
Although, he did say that he is interested in reading the Wolverine script. That movie in particular said that a director would be popping up soon...and a Wolverine flick, depending on the scale, could be made by Singer before late next year".
The scoop got an extra boost this weekend with comments from Hugh Jackman saying that Singer "is the preferred director but there is a major timing issue in the production".
