According to Deadline, 20th Century Fox is looking towards “3:10 to Yuma” and “Walk the Line” director James Mangold to helm the Hugh Jackman-starring THE WOLVERINE. Mangold previously worked with Fox on “Knight and Day”. The studio has furiously been on the search for a new director after Darren Aronofsky left the project. Formal negotiations with Mangold will soon take place, as the studio is hoping to get cameras rolling this Fall in the USA and Japan.
Written by Christopher McQuarrie, THE WOLVERINE follows Logan as he treks Japan on a top secret assignment and falls in love with a mysterious woman whose hand in marriage is already promised to another. When Logan chooses not to back down from his primal instincts he finds himself in-arms with her powerful crime lord father and samurai-wielding brothers.
OMFG
They should just GIVE UP ON WOLVERINE!
He has ruined the previous movies by being the star of them all.
Why should thewy make a (sorry for this) f*cking sequel?
The first movie messed up the timline for X-MEN anyway!
Sorry I am very p*ssed to here this load of crap.
No offence to you Anthony IN ANY WAY!
Marvel Fan> you should be more careful on your words
anyway: Did we seen the X-men origins: wolverine?? yet or is it a new version??
it should be the second of wolverine film when huge Jackman is on the samurays no??
Oh come on… Hugh is the star of this franchise.
I CANNOT wait for this film to be released!!!
Mangold’s YUMA was terrific, my favorite Western Movie. I will keep my fingers crossed that negotiations will come to an end and he will sign on to direct.
btw. Hugh is getting in shape (again) after a pause of 2 month. Check out on imdb.
the new director looks very good for a director why not very good i like him the fact is the choice of Mr Fox respectfully ofcourse
chill out Xavier let Fox do decided i have no problem at all with this one but let fox do Decided
sorry for to many post of mine
I am not really fan of Wolverine including the XOW, but I watched it for the sake of X-men. I still support this film if it’s official because Hugh Jackman really love the X-men and Wolverine and i’m thanking him for that, but I still prefer to see the X4, Which all important characters are involve not just focus to Wolverine.
I’m not sure about this director but let’s just see…
Check out YUMA. Great Western and a superb movie!
Dude… relax. 🙂 You will live longer with a lower blood pressure.
And you bet some of us know what they talk about here.
i m not a Fan two of Wolvie
I like your way of reasoning.
Seriously will some one sort him out.
Like, can’t this Cyber whatever guy just type what he wants to say in his own language on a translator, translate it to english and copy and paste it here.
Now, is that too much to ask?
@ Xaivier
No…..just no. He isn’t the star. It should be the X-Men…HENCE the name XMEN!
Not wolverine.
Thats why they made a movie about him, which then disturbed the timeline and the charcters of the X-Men.

Being….well you…You may think that this comment is a mean and a bad comment. But it is meerly a comment that means no harm. And I would watch what you say too. You need to spell corretly in order for poeple to understand you.
Robert
Calm down, your the downer of this commenting site.
BTW If they ARE going to have a sequel on this FAILED movie.
Follow the god damn comics and add Deathsrike, silver samuri and who ever else is in his adventure in Japan!
thank u for your Explanation Marvel Fan BUT you forgot one thing… not nesesarly it should be be the identical Cartoons in the movies marvel Fan, look what happend,s to Wolverine in the cartoons he used yellow spandex and in the movie is totally Black like Batman so we got to seened that way so in the comics they are designed by diferent way and in the movies are diferent way so one advice don’t take it personaly the comics is diferent than the movies cause is a diferent world ok my dear friend.
Accept it, or don’t. For the average Joe, Hugh Jackman IS X-Men. Period. Most people do not know the comics, and they need a leading character. Wolverine is someone everyone can identify with, since every person asks the same question Logan does in the films at least once in life. Who am I? Where do I come from?
I am not saying Wolverine is the leading character of the comic book franchise… but concerning the films… yeah… he is. Sorry to disappoint you.
SPAMMER ALERT!!!
Well, about our topic.. I need to see who’s character involve before I freak out like crazy.
In what movie are we talking about the Character Ken
Okay… to be honest. I never read the comics, nor did I watch the cartoons… too goofy IMHO (don’t take it is an offense).
I like the more mature, down-to-Earth style of the films: No timetravel, no alternate realities and crap like that.
So honestly I do not care what differences there are between comics and films. For me Victor Creed will always be Logan’s half-brother, Shaw will be a German scientist called Schmidt, and Havok Cyclop’s older brother. Period.
I am looking forward to THE WOLVERINE. Eventhough I really loved FIRST CLASS some characters were underused and the film was filled with plots which could span through a 22 episode season.
Xavier> dude xcuse me about this subject pressure but who in the hell got blood pressure in here?? you most be talking about Ken that he said about spammer Alert no??
Not rudley Msh Like RObert your Buddy Boy
@ Xaivier
The reason why he is X-Men (I think not) is because they made him the star role
I just want to see more X-men film every year.
I agree with Ken in see X-men Movies Every Year No debut
I do not know… we tried to be polite, to help. He just keeps ignoring us… so I started to ignore him. 🙂
yES, IT IS TOO MUCH TO ASK BECAUSE HE’S AN IDIOT.
He don’t wanna do it and it’s not our problem anymore.
