A new image of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine has hit the web. Set to hit theaters on July 26th, The Wolverine sees the Oscar nominated Aussie reprise the role of our favorite moody Mutant on the big screen for the fifth time in a film that takes place in the future, and after all the previous entries in the X-Men series.
Here is the official synopsis of the film:
Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before.
In addition, director James Mangold (3:10 To Yuma) tweeted this POV image from the editing room of the film. Not much revealed here beyond that they are in the home stretch of post production, but had this to say:
“Late night on @thewolverine. Here is my POV from a couch behind editor Mike McCusker. Last reel.”
