This is an unofficial news site about the X-men spinoff film, Wolverine. With Hugh Jackman reprising the role of Logan, Gavin Hood shall direct a story exploring Wolverine's origins, as written by David Benioff. Production begins in November 2007 for a projected 2008 US release.

First Official Wolverine Image February 14th, 2008, posted by FofR

After our scoop on the first “Hugh Jackman portraying Wolverine” image, USA Today have now released an official first look picture, showing Wolverine looking traditionally angry - although those adamantium claws look a little two fake around the knuckles for my liking (maybe its just the high contrast filter).

Set Reports, Jackman Sightings, Pictures February 11th, 2008, posted by FofR

Production on the Wolverine movie prequel is beginning to ramp up now and in the next few months we’ll begin to see some exciting new developments. As of yet there are no on-set pictures of Hugh Jackman, but to keep the juices flowing we’ll provide you with some more set reports and photos:

Travel Marla

“Saw Hugh Jackman running through the woods today in full Wolverine costume. Apparently he’s shooting a movie of the same name as the X-Men character. New Zealand is doubling as Canada.”

Kay’s Travel Blog

“There was a large crew [at Fangorn Forest] filming scenes from the new Wolverine movie. Hugh Jackman is in town but we haven’t seen him.”

Movieweb are also getting in on the action - coming back with some updated pictures of the farm set, showing a fully constructed and ready to be destructed farm house,

The following is a series of images I was able to take from one of the Wolverine film sets. The images were taken from the set located in an area about 45 minutes outside of Queenstown, New Zealand. A side note of interesting information is that the hill located behind the barn is the same hill located behind Orthanc (the Isengard Tower in The Lord of the Rings Trillogy), as well as seconds away from locations where they filmed scenes from both The Chronicles of Narnia and Willow.

The barn was constructed several months ago and as far as I know was due to be blown up sometime during the week (something involving a helicopter!).

Here are a couple of small rumors for you to get your adamantium claws into,

Rhino Buggies

According to the Rhino Buggies build journal, Fox have purchased one of their extreme terrain vehicles for the Wolverine movie. It’ll look a little like this, but obviously customised,

Christian Clark

Christian Clark has accidentally revealed to the Adelaide Advertiser that he has been cast for the X-men Origins feature, although he did not reveal which character he shall play:

Clark is momentarily caught off-guard when I ask about Wolverine, and inadvertently confirms his involvement, before realising the gag order in his contract prevents him from doing so or talking about it any further. But one thing is certain – Clark has a big future planned.

Once again their has been some speculation about the Stryker role, but it is currently unfounded.
