Directed by Gavin Hood from a David Benioff, the action-thriller co-stars Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds, Taylor Kitsch, Will.i.am, Danny Huston, Dominic Monaghan, Daniel Henney and Lynn Collins.

Leading up to the events of X-Men, X-Men Origins: Wolverine tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed, and the ominous Weapon X program.

Well, blow me down with a barrel of bananas. I've never seen a pic of Wolverine with claws and a wife-beater before. Yawn. Consider me unexcited. This picture tells us zero. zzzzzz

Looks like there will be no Wolverine costume in this movie either.

A very beautiful picture of Wolverine. Hugh Jackman has captured Wolverine beautifully. He was born to play the legendary X-Men character. LONG LIVE X-MEN!!!!!

Yes, Wolverine doesn't age like normal, but hasn't Hugh Jackman? So since HE has aged since X1,2 and 3, make HIM look younger looking to fit?

All I'm hoping is that Wolvie actually, definitively WINS a fight with a mutant in this movie. For a guy who's "the best there is at whea he does" he sure gets his butt handed to him EVERY movie.

Sabretooth: he needs Cyclops to blast him off the Statue of Liberty for him. Mystique: She kicks his butt and he only takes her down cause she tried to trick him. Deathstrike: mops the floor with him till he has to cheat and use the adamantium feed to kill her as she's cutting him to ribbons. Juggernaut: basically plays hackey sack with Wolvie.

In fact the only fights he wins are with normal, powerless humans and a couple of D-lister mutants in Magneto's camp.

Please let Wolvie win one!

I give it two thumbs up. Wolverine does have quite a fondness for tank tops though.

IS THERE A MORE ANNOYING NAME IN HOLLYWOOD...

...than "Will.i.am?" Only "McG" comes close. Use your real names, you egotistical show-offs!


Posted by: Freelance Gynecologist on July 6, 2008 at 10:32:54

He pulls it off DaJimmer, Will.i.am pulls it off,...now isn't that what you are really upset about :D


Posted by: richard on July 6, 2008 at 10:35:41

what the **** do people mean by newer or cooler? What do you actually want? or are you like the rest of those sad ****s on the internet who *****, moan and whine like a little ***** while not knowing what they want or in fact what they are talking about.


Posted by: Freelance Gynecologist on July 6, 2008 at 10:46:43

richard, its simple, we as "The Internet" just want to be given final script approval, that really not that much to ask for. :)


Posted by: Byron_More on July 6, 2008 at 11:04:58

I wonder if Wolverine is gonna use a suit, and what suit??..


Posted by: bob2 on July 6, 2008 at 11:08:19

I hope this movie is going to be dark like the dark knight. If it isn't it's not going to do well.

We need to see wolverine do some serious killing. The movies and cartoon water him down way to much.

I think this is the last chance to see the real wolverine. Right now they make he talk tough but we don't get to see the real wolverine.

For all who have ever read a wolverine comic book, you know what i'm talking about.

If you never heard of wolverine and you picked up a wolverine comic book, you would think he's a bad guy.

I loved the beginning of the 1st X-men movie. I hope this movie is like that.

if they don't put the bone claws, it'll suck...but i'm pretty sure they will


Posted by: Bruce on July 6, 2008 at 11:29:44

OK I got a question toall of you.What is so cool about the Wolverine costume?


Posted by: Bryan Singer on July 6, 2008 at 11:35:09

Alright, whatever.. still MONTHS to go


Posted by: Zahin on July 6, 2008 at 12:14:45

I agree with Zach too. We want something new.


Posted by: gtrman on July 6, 2008 at 12:41:38

The claws in the poster look like he's wearing them instead o them having popped out of him. Looks like he put them on.


Posted by: franshux on July 6, 2008 at 12:44:58

Well, the photo looks cool, but I still would like to see something to what we´ve seen in the previous 2 or three photos, which were almost the same from a different angle


Posted by: STONE_WORM on July 6, 2008 at 13:14:12

Could one of the legends of the marvel universe possibly be Captain America? The idea for the Avengers movie has already been brought up at the end of iron man and the hulk and we know that wolverine fought beside him in ww2. could a well placed Captain America cameo set up captain americas own movie.


Posted by: Giggity on July 6, 2008 at 14:02:12

I could give a big F to all the other characters..I just want to see Deadpool come in and mop the floor with everybody....then pull out his peepee and urinate all over them..haha!!! Take that!! Take that!!!


Posted by: SKuLLFaCeD on July 6, 2008 at 14:03:00

it looks cool and all, but i wanna see the OTHER characters!!!!!!!!! namely gambit blob and deadpool, i hope deadpool looks exactly lik he does in the mainstream comics
