Just over a year from now Wolverine fans will see actor Hugh Jackman don the facial hair and adamantium claws one last time (sniff, sniff). Even though a release date for WOLVERINE 3 has been set for March 3, 2017, by Fox, Jackman has been vocal saying he wants his last turn to be the perfect send-off movie for his portrayal of the mutant.
During an interview with Collider, Jackman gave a script update for WOLVERINE 3 and it finally has a full script draft completed.
"We have a script. A full script. To tell you, two days ago I got that the full finished—well, it’s not finished, but we’re getting super close—as you can see by the rate of my facial hair. That might give you a good clue that perhaps… yeah, it’s sooner rather than later.
"I don’t have a firm date yet. My thing and I’ve told you and I’ve told everyone, it’s my last one, for me I want it to be perfect, so the moment I know it’s perfect, bang, we’ll go."
With the movie release date already set, pre-production and principle photography would need to begin in the coming months to meet its release deadline. So look for more news on WOLVERINE 3 soon.
WOLVERINE 3 will co-star Patrick Stewart as Professor X and be directed by James Mangold, who directed Jackman in 2013's THE WOLVERINE.
