All of you X-Men fans out there are gonna be happy to hear that May 1st 2009 the movie “Wolverine” will be on the big screen. I can’t believe Fox actually set the date this early, they are still in pre-production. I’m not sure how I feel about sequels these days because we’ve had quite a few flops and a few great ones too, so I will reserve my judgement for when I actually see the movie.
There are a number of questions floating around about who will be in this one. “Will Brian Cox return as William Stryker?” is the one I hear most often in reference to this movie. It is rumored that Liev Shrieber might be taking the role as this movie will be a prequel to the rest. I’m sure it will show how the Weapon X program came about and all of the things one would expect from a David Benioff script. Gavin Hood is will be directing this movie for 20th Century Fox and Hugh Jackman will of course play the role of Logan/Wolverine.
