The film, starring Hugh Jackman as the titular character, delves into the mysterious past of Wolverine, aka Logan, the mutant hero and future X-Man with the superhuman healing factor and razor-sharp claws. It will focus on his relationship with his future nemesis Sabretooth, aka Victor Creed, his first true love, and his time with Weapon X, a mutant super-soldier program that coated his skeleton and claws in the unbreakable metal called adamantium.
Wolverine first premiered in 1974 and has since gone onto become one of Marvel’s most well-known characters, with his claws, gruff attitude, mysterious past, and connections to various other heroes and villains, including Weapon X, a government project that turned mutants like him into mindless killers. The character has appeared in almost every media adaptation of the X-Men and Marvel franchises, from other comics, books, cartoons, and video games. Hugh Jackman is the first actor to portray the character in a live-action film, starting with 2000’s “X-Men”.
