Hugh Jackman Is Ready For Action In New Image For ‘THE WOLVERINE’

I’m currently composing my list of most anticipated films of 2013 that will be unveiled on the site later this week.  One of the films that will be on that list – to give you an early glimpse of one that made the cut – will be James Mangold’s The Wolverine.  The character of Logan/Wolverine has such a captivating presences on the screen and can serve as the perfect platform to tell emotional, character-driven stories while also staging some bad-ass fight scenes.  Not to mention, I think the initial casting of Hugh Jackman starting back with the original X-Men movie in 2000 has to be one of the most inspired and perfect casting choices in the history of cinema.  I can’t even imagine another actor bearing the Adamantium claws and bushy sideburns.  All of these and so many more are the reasons why I’m looking forward to The Wolverine.  And this new hi-res image from the film certainly sparks my interest even more.  Check it out below.  The Wolverine slashes its way into theaters on July 26.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
