Wolverine Spinoff Movie News UPDATE!!!!

“Entertainment Weekly Magazine’s” online edition reports that, when actor, Hugh Jackman made a guest appearance at Thursday night’s ShoWest gala ceremony to accept his honor as 2006’s ShoWest Male Star Of The Year, as WE already reported in OUR article on Thursday, March 16, 2006, he also chatted up some JUICY UPDATES, regarding the Xciting, Xtraordinary, “Wolverine” spinoff movie!

Jackman told “Entertainment Weekly Magazine” that, “the 2nd screenplay draft by David Benioff is due momentarily” for the “Wolverine” major film spinoff.

Jackman says that, “Wolverine substantiates a feature film.” (WE wholeheartedly AGREE!!). Jackman continues, “I mean he’s a really intriguing, mysterious, enigmatic character, a la Mad Max, Dirty Harry, Han Solo….he’s that kind of screen antihero”.

“Entertainment Weekly” hit gold by prying the spinoff film’s potential, still in development, storyline, out of Jackman!

Jackman enthused, “I’d love to get into the origins of the character and find out what he’s really made of. So that was always my idea….Benioff came in with a pitch that was so brilliant, I was so excited, I actually tried to get (20th Century) Fox to make it (before “X-Men”). But they said, “No, no, no, we have a trilogy, let’s finish that.””

So if you are wondering if this means that Wolverine will indeed survive the ultimate war between Magneto’s evil, vengeful, Brotherhood of Mutants and humankind’s semi fascist military, and will live AFTER, “X-Men: The Last Stand”, Jackman ambiguously teased with this thought, “Well you never know. “Wolverine” might be a prequel.”

WE would be just as happy with a prequel! Especially, since as Jackman himself noted, YES, Wolverine/Logan is quite the enigmatic, mystery man, whose origins, at least in the first 2 “X-Men” films, “X-Men” and “X2: X-Men United” are STILL unknown.

Jean Grey herself, said in “X-Men” that Wolverine/Logan could be even older than Professor Xavier!

And since the malevolent, evil, Colonel William Stryker fittingly met his Grim Reaper maker in “X2”, Stryker’s last words taunted Wolverine, telling and leaving Wolverine only with a crumb of information that it was Stryker himself, who had “created” Wolverine’s indestructible adamantium metal alloy covered skeleton, and Stryker claimed that Wolverine had “volunteered” for the very experiment that involved that metal alloy and Wolverine’s infamous metal claws.

Stryker even told Wolverine, that Wolverine had at one time, been quite the opposite of the hero we have all come to know and love, working with Stryker, with perhaps nefarious intentions!

With Stryker now dead, we do NOT know if Stryker was lying or telling the truth.

HOW could what Stryker said, possibly be true?!

And if so, WHAT or WHO, redeemed Wolverine into the selfless, courageous, Super Hero who stalwartly stands with his “X-Men” compatriots and friends?!

Wolverine/Logan, with heavy heart, mind, and anguish, further clouded by a mysterious amnesia, has searched for the answers and the truth behind WHO, he is and how he became WHAT, he is throughout the first 2 “X-Men” films.

So the Wolverine spinoff major motion picture, IF it does turn out to be a prequel, would definitely deem appropriate, in at last, filling in the very vast, memory blanks (and what finding the truth may hold), that haunt Wolverine/Logan….and US!

On a FINAL NOTE!!

Notfabio also reports that Hugh Jackman also screened THREE, Top Secret, Xclusive clips from “X-Men: The Last Stand” to the movie industry and press big wigs at ShoWest Thursday night as well! The clips are listed below.
