Hugh Jackman & Hiroyuki Sanada Clash Claws & Steel in New Set Photos from The Wolverine

16 May 2013 2:15 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

With The Wolverine hitting theatres this summer, and X-Men: Days of Future Past arriving a year later, things are definitely looking good for the fans of Marvel’s mutant franchise.

The Wolverine is just over two months out from its debut at the multiplex, and we’ve seen nothing but good things from the film so far. We were recently treated to the awesome new trailer showcased at this year’s CinemaCon. And following shortly after came a great new teaser poster, giving us another glimpse at Silver Samurai.

And now director James Mangold has taken to Twitter once more to share a handful of new set photos. And with them comes the news that he’s coming close to completing the film in its entirety:

We are in the home stretch as we begin recording the score and mixing the film this week.

Jackman is of course reprising his eponymous role as Logan / Wolverine, »

Awesome New Silver Samurai Teaser Poster for The Wolverine

6 May 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

James Mangold’s highly anticipated The Wolverine enters a hugely successful franchise for Fox this summer, marking the latest entry in the X-Men movies that began so brilliantly back in 2000 with Bryan Singer’s X-Men.

After catching an awesome new trailer for the film last week, showing us the footage previewed to conventiongoers at CinemaCon, Mangold has revealed a brilliant new teaser poster on Twitter.

As we are beginning to offer glimpses of Silver Samurai, here’s a new great one sheet image for #thewolverine pic.twitter.com/iP9BDu1rWJ

Similar in style to that epic first teaser poster (which the studio have reportedly been having trouble with in the Us, because people keep stealing them from bus shelters), this latest one sheet gives us a look instead at Silver Samurai.

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, The Wolverine finds Logan, the eternal warrior and outsider, in Japan. »

Hugh Jackman Talks Jean Grey in The Wolverine Trailer

28 March 2013 10:31 AM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

The biggest shocker to come out of The Wolverine trailer released yesterday in both a domestic (clickHere) and a longer international version (clickHere) was the reveal of Famke Janssen's return as Jean Grey. While some think its too much of a spoiler this early out, Hugh Jackman sat with MTV to discuss this important moment in the film.

The Wolverine - Trailer

The Wolverine - International Trailer

"There's no doubt that the most important relationship in his life is, we've seen through the movies...Is his relationship with Jean Grey. Yes, we saw her die at the end of X-Men: The Last Stand, but in this movie, she has a presence, which I think is vital to the movie, particularly for him confronting the most difficult thing within himself.

The movie takes place, for those following the X-Men saga, after X-Men: The Last Stand. At the beginning of our movie, »

First look at Viper in costume in The Wolverine, plus new posters and images as we count down to trailer

25 March 2013 10:44 AM, PDT | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »

New images from The Wolverine have finally given us the first proper look at one of the other key characters apart from Hugh Jackman's metal-clawed mutant.

The pictures unveiled by 20th Century Fox via Entertainment Weekly show Russian actress Svetlana Khodchenkova in a green costume (similar to her look in the comics) as Viper. We previously had a glimpse of the character in some set pictures from Japan. Now we just need a look at the film's other villain, Silver Samurai.

Director James Mangold said of his interpretation of Viper: "As her name would imply, she's kind of snakelike. She likes to play with toxins. She's immune to toxins. She's kind of formidable.

"Viper views Logan like a great hunter might view hunting a lion. There's kind of an admiration, a desire to destroy and a desire to consume and to have and to hold."

8 New Images & Poster for The Wolverine

25 March 2013 8:13 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

After catching the epic first theatrical poster for The Wolverine this morning, a new alternate poster and a set of eight awesome images have debuted online.

The Wolverine’s first teaser trailer is dropping this Wednesday, and we can’t wait to see what director James Mangold has brought to the table here.

Hugh Jackman’s return as Logan / Wolverine has been long overdue, and this latest entry in the X-Men movie franchise can’t come fast enough. Especially with Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Days of Future Past not far off on the horizon, either. Though they may be unrelated, in terms of plot, we get to see Wolverine return for both of them, and that can only be good news.

'X-Men': Chris Claremont expects changes to 'Days of Future Past'

21 March 2013 2:34 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Chris Claremont has discussed the adaptations of X-Men: Days of Future Past and The Wolverine.

The veteran comics writer - who wrote the source material for both of 20th Century Fox's upcoming movies - does not expect them to remain faithful to his stories.

"Well, the sad reality of Hollywood, especially as it relates to comic books, is that there is never a direct adaptation of source material," Claremont told Comic Book Resources. "I think Watchmen was maybe the only time that that was tried.

"The Wolverine was a project that the producer, Lauren Shuler Donner, has wanted to do ever since I've known her, which is going on better than fifteen years, now. She's loved the story that Frank Miller and I did and has wanted to bring it to the screen.

"In the story's original incarnation, in Christopher McQuarrie's original screenplay, that was what it was and it was really cool. »

Chris Claremont On The Wolverine & Days Of Future Past

Not only did Chris Claremont write the comic book source for Fox's The Wolverine but his incredible Days of Future Past story arc in the pages of X-Men is also being adapted by Fox into a feature film. Below, Chris shares a few thoughts about both projects. "Well, the sad reality of Hollywood, especially as it relates to comic books, is that there is never a direct adaptation of source material.

Bryan Singer Talks ‘X-Men 3′ & Fixing ‘A Few Things’ With ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’

18 March 2013 11:44 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

Bryan Singer left Twentieth Century Fox’s X-Men: The Last Stand just before production began so he could direct Superman Returns for Warner Bros., and what came of X-Men 3 was something critics and fans didn’t find as praiseworthy as its predecessors. The studio, with the help of X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner, brought Singer back to helm a quasi-reboot/prequel in X-Men: First Class after X-Men Origins: Wolverine was also poorly received (critically), but he had to take a producer role due to his other obligations.

With its sequel, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Singer is hopping back into the director’s chair once again to not only work with the team behind X-Men: First Class but to craft what could be also considered X-Men 4, or dare I say it, another (read: his own) take on X-Men 3.

Speaking with Bleeding Cool recently, Bryan Singer was directly asked about whether »

James Mangold shares Actor Portraits of Hugh Jackman & More on set of The Wolverine

14 March 2013 9:19 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

James Mangold’s The Wolverine is one of this year’s summer blockbusters I’m most looking forward to.

Hugh Jackman of course returns to the fold as the eponymous Logan / Wolverine, and we’re expecting the first trailer to drop this month, pretty much any day now. So far, all we’ve seen are a handful of images, along with a brilliant teaser poster and motion poster.

And now Mangold has taken to Twitter to share a few actor portraits, giving us three black and white images of Hugh Jackman, Rila Fukushima, and Tao Okamoto, taken on the last day of The Wolverine’s production.

Mark Millar Not Involved With The ‘X-Men’ Movies (Yet)

12 March 2013 10:37 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

From the moment Bryan Singer namedropped “Days of Future Past” as the story his next X-Men film will be based on, he made it clear that Twentieth Century Fox, producer Lauren Shuler Donner and he have plans to “broaden out” the X-Men film universe, taking a note from the Marvel Studios playbook. The X-Men universe is massive in its own right and Singer feels its time to do something bigger and bolder to take advantage of the Marvel Comics library that Fox holds the film rights to.

In addition to a story involving time travel and the largest superhero cast ever seen on film, we’re going to start seeing a shared, cohesive Marvel universe from Fox much like we’re seeing from Marvel Studios, and to help put their Marvel projects on the right track the studio ...

Comic Writer Claremont Talks ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’

4 March 2013 10:39 AM, PST | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »

The X-Men world is dense and full of many interesting and memorable stories. Through the public veneer of super-heroics, “X-Men” was a comic that focused on social ills such as racism. Now with two new movies coming to the forefront of the blockbuster machine, the original writer for “Days of Future Past” offers his own thoughts on the newest projects.

Chris Claremont has worked on X-Men comics for about 25 years and is credited with revitalizing the property after near-extinction in the 1970s. In his tenure he has written such classic storylines as the “Dark Phoenix Saga” and “God Love, Man Kills.” Of the basis of the movie, he says:

“The challenge, the story, is actually what happens in the future. Getting them to the point where you can send Kitty back, and seeing the consequences of what will happen if they fail, and not knowing at the end how it’s going to turn out. »

QuickClick: Unofficial Wonder Woman Trailer May Be the Closest Fans Get to the Real Thing

2 March 2013 4:07 AM, PST | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »

It can't have been easy for Warner Bros. and their subsidiary DC Entertainment to sit and watch Marvel release The Avengers to huge box office success last year while Christopher Nolan was simultaneously closing the doors on his massively successful Batman trilogy with The Dark Knight Rises. While The Avengers is clearly open to have more sequels, Nolan never tried to expand his movies' scope to DC's other characters. In response to the success of The Avengers, Warners did hire Gangster Squad screenwriter Will Beall to script a Justice League movie, which would potentially team Batman with other legendary DC characters such as Superman, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, however, the movie is already rumored to be slated for a complete overhaul, with the safe money betting that the studio will wait and see if Superman's next outing, Man of Steel, will provide the box office boost necessary to move »

New Image and Set Photo of Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine

25 February 2013 1:30 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Hitting us in the height of the summer, The Wolverine is one of the last big blockbusters of the season to get its promotional campaign underway. We had a brilliant teaser poster late last year, when Hugh Jackman and director James Mangold hosted a live Q&A. And that was followed by an awesome motion poster in time for Christmas.

But as we eagerly await the first trailer’s debut, which is expected to land next month, we can enjoy the occasional official images that surface. The latest of Jackman to emerge comes courtesy of the film’s Facebook, and with it comes a shot of him on set from Mangold’s Twitter:

“A production snap from shooting a wood chopping scene in Omishima. We found an eight inch caterpillar that morning. pic.twitter.com/NIBceVz9jF”

Bryan Singer Hints at Bringing Back Cyclops and Jean Grey for X-men: Days Of Future Past

22 February 2013 12:34 PM, PST | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Bryan Singer recently talked to IGN to talk about X-Men: Days of Future Past, and there's a few things that I think fans are going to be happy to hear. I know I was! First of all he's going to use the film as an opportunity to fix some things that went wrong with Brett Ratner's X-Men: The Last Stand. It will be easy for him to do that since the new X-Men film includes a time travel element. 

Here's the question and answer session for that segment of the interview:

IGN: One thing that’s interesting about the alternate universe/timeline in Days of Future Past is that it could potentially give you the opportunity to revisit things that happened in the third film in terms of characters and endings that you might like to see changed.

Bryan Singer on ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ Continuity and Dinklage Role

22 February 2013 10:13 AM, PST | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »

With the huge influx of characters and the temporal as well as physical scope of the story, “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” seems akin to the great Grecian Epics Hollywood produced in its golden era. While fans of the X-Franchise keep speculation at a fever pitch, director Bryan Singer continues to hint at the grandeur of said movie.

It has been rumored that the time-traveling aspect will in some way affect events from Brett Ratner’s “X-Men 3,” particularly with the ignominious deaths of two iconic characters. When questioned about their return, Singer says: “Who wouldn’t? Who wouldn’t? [Laughing] That’s all I can say.” On the topic of possible alterations to the third film through “Days of Future Past,” Singer responds: “You mean, what you’re politely saying is, “fix s**t.” Is that what you’re saying? That’s what I’m hearing. [Laughing].” He continues, saying: “There’s »
