X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Set roughly twenty years before X-Men, the film will focus on Wolverine's violent past and his early encounters with William Stryker (Danny Huston). Wolverine lives a mutant life, seeks revenge against Victor Creed (who will later become Sabertooth) for the death of his girlfriend, and ultimately ends up going through the mutant Weapon X program

Starring: Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber and Dominic Monaghan

Jackman as Wolverine...

Jackman says he fell in love with the Wolverine character a decade ago for much the same reason fans embrace the comic books. "The character has always reminded me of Dirty Harry or Han Solo," Jackman says. "He's a good guy, not a nice guy. He's got a lot of flaws, which I think is what people find so attractive about him and the X-Men. He's struggling with who he is and what he wants. He was one of the comics' first anti-heroes."

About Wolverine
Wolverine is a superhero that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Incredible Hulk #180 (October 1974) and was created by writer Len Wein and Marvel art director John Romita Sr. Wolverine later joined the X-Men's "All New, All Different" roster in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (May 1975)

Born James Howlett and commonly known as Logan, Wolverine is a mutant, possessing animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities, retracting bone claws, and a healing factor that allows him to quickly recover from virtually any wound, disease or toxin, enabling him to live beyond a normal human lifespan. This healing ability enabled the supersoldier program Weapon X to bond the near indestructible metal alloy adamantium to his skeleton and claws.
