Hugh Jackman Reviews, Interviews & More
Poor Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) can never get a break in any of these X-Men movies. He's been tested and tossed around from one end of the continent to the other. We get a better glimpse at how big of a beating he'll be receiving in the upcoming prequel/sequel The Wolverine.
Coverage on James Mangold's The Wolverine is in full swing. 20th Century Fox has released five new images from the set of the film featuring Hugh Jackman, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima and the director himself. Check them out below.
It’s hard to get a read on whether or not the upcoming The Wolverine is any good after the horrendously dull disaster that was X-Men Origins: Wolverine—there are moments in the new trailer that look genuinely great or entertaining or thrilling… but that sour taste from X-Men Origins just keeps popping back up. Maybe viewing The...
In what has become de rigueur in modern action movie trailers, you’ve got to have really loud horns bleating the entire time, just to remind people how cool it was when that happened in Inception, so please come see our movie too, ok? The CinemaCon trailer for The Wolverine is the latest to clip to bludgeon viewer’s ears with...
Out of all of the X-Men that exists in the Marvel comic and movie universe, the one everybody's the most enamored with is Wolverine. Lucky for them they'll be able to gaze at the live-action version of the adamantium-filled mutant in James Mangold's The Wolverine. The filmmaker decided to spoil X-Men fans some more with brand new behind the scenes...
The Wolverine is currently on everybody's lips, and that's just because they released the upcoming sequel just released its first set of trailers. But one of the things that has got many X-Men fans curious is how much of Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) we'll be seeing in the upcoming sequel. A day after the release of the new trailers, actor Hugh Jackman dishes out a...
The marketing strategy for The Wolverine has been somewhat interesting thus far—instead of releasing teasers nearly a year in advance (we’re looking at you, Man of Steel and Iron Man 3, among others), The Wolverine’s ad machine has been relatively quiet outside of a few promo pics and awful posters. Then, this week, director James...
While everybody is buzzing with anticipation over who will be in X-Men: Days of Future Past, they've seem to have forgotten all about the other upcoming superhero sequel, The Wolverine. We haven't seen too many images pop out for the origin sequel, but director James Mangold is kind enough to release a couple of pictures to the public. They aren't...
Surprisingly enough, Les Misérables hit us right in the gut -- but in a good way. It's hard not to get swept up in the music and emotion pouring out of the film. While it's not perfect, the latest adaptation of the classic is solid and ready to be taken in by a new generation of fans.
When you begin to pay attention to the awards circuit, it's difficult to find out which critic circles or award ceremonies have a great track record with their predictions. It's easy to get lost in the flurry that is the awards season, especially around this time of year when every other major town is hollering about who they deem as their top picks. This week on Oscar Scuttlebutt not only do...
Les Misérables has proved to be a timeless classic, and now we're just a couple of weeks away from its theatrical release, re-imagined for the big screen by filmmaker Tom Hooper. So of course we're going to be flooded with tons of new television spots in anticipation of its release. Well, here's a couple more for you to chew on.
When describing the career of director Christopher Nolan the word "amazing" comes to mind. Beginning at the lowest rung of the independent circuit, he has risen to craft some of the most artistically and commercially successful blockbusters of the last decade. With the epic conclusion to his Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises, hitting shelves this week, now is as...
2012 has been a banner year for Nerd-dom—in addition to Joss Whedon essentially overtaking the universe with The Avengers, the James Bond franchise scoring one of its best entries, and news that a new Star Wars trilogy was happening, Bryan Singer announced that he was returning to the X-Men film franchise to direct X-Men: Days of Future Past, the...
Les Miserables is one of a rare vanishing breed: a big budget, star studded Oscar Best Picture wannabe. For the last couple years the awards have been dominated by smaller, independent movies that are sold on their prestige, and a daring turn by an actor who was probably paid little money in the hopes of winning a golden statue. Not here. Nope, this is the big...
Despite the fact that it’s a sequel to the prequel film X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and the fact that it’s being directly adapted from a graphic novel’s prequel storyline, The Wolverine director James Mangold has announced that his upcoming film will not be a sequel after all—rather, it will be very, very distant sequel.
Easily one of the more talked-about comic book movies in production happens to be The Wolverine (go figure). But today everyone's attention is diverted from general interest about the production to whether or not the latest cameo happens to be true. There's going to be a mighty lot of questions that'll have to be answered if this rumor ends up being...
We haven’t received much in the way of official media for The Wolverine, the sixth film in the X-Men film franchise and the first sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. For awhile there, it appeared Darren Aronofsky would direct, essentially guaranteeing the weirdest comic book adaptation ever; however, Aronofsky...
Coming on the heels of the news that Hiroyuki Sanada, Hal Yamanouchi, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima, and Will Yun Lee had been cast to costar with Hugh Jackman in the X-Men Origins: Wolverine sequel (cleverly titled The Wolverine, in case you might forget what it’s...
Timing is everything, and there's nothing better than being able to follow something hugely successful with something in the same vein. It's unlikely that Dreamworks animation knew that Rise of the Guardians would have a similar "assemble the super-team" narrative as The Avengers when they started production a couple years ago (animation...
Featuring direction from Academy Award-winner Tom Hooper (The King’s Speech), starring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Samantha Barks, Eddie Redmayne, Helena Bonham Carter, and Sacha Baron Cohen, and based upon one of the most beloved novels and stage musicals of all, the upcoming film version of Les Misérables looked pretty...
