James Mangold tweets about filming THE WOLVERINE!

THE WOLVERINE director James Mangold now has a Twitter @mang0ld where he’ll provide updates directly from the set. His first few tweets offer some interesting details on what’s currently going on “down under” at Fox Studios in Sydney.

“Just finished pages. Made some tweaks. Scribbled out fresh shot list. About to head to set for day 14 of THE WOLVERINE.”

“Amazing images being made. Great actors in this show. Exhilarating to direct in multiple languages. Real emotion transcends language.”

“Today I am starting an intense set piece of action and drama at the Yashida Compound set. Logan, Yukio and Shingen.”

“Movies I think about as I make #TheWolverine : Eastwood’s Josie Wales, Powell’s Back Narcissus, Hitchcock’s Rear Window, Marnie, Vertigo.”

Releasing next Summer, the film follows Logan as he lands in Japan and falls in love with Mariko, the daughter of powerful crimelord, Yashida Shingen. When Logan doesn’t back down, Shingen summons the Silver Samurai and other deadly threats to push his healing-factor to the limit.
