The First 17+ Photo of Logan Is Revealed!

Director James Mangold has already said that when people get hurt in Logan, that's the name of the third Wolverine movie, they'll stay hurt. Going by these recently released Instagram posts, that the point is really being hammered home as one of the photos is a severed arm holding a shotgun.

Yep, that’s a severed arm with a shotgun, labelled “Aftermath.” So whoever was running around with that gun has probably discovered even a drunken, aging Wolvie can still kick your ass.

Speaking about the film in a recent interview, Hugh Jackman said: “Basically, it’s going to be different. Very different in tone and hopefully to anything we’ve done”. Mangold has since added: “If you're on the make for a hyper-choreographed, gravity defying, city-block destroying CG f**kathon, this ain't your movie.

“In this flick, people get hurt or killed when shit falls on them. They will get just as hurt or just as killed if they get hit with something big and heavy, like, say, a car. Should anyone in our story have the misfortune to fall off a roof or out a window, they won't bounce. They will die.”

The movie will take place in the year 2024, with the mutant population dying out and a “government-type operation” known as “Transigen” using mutant kids as “killing machines.” One such kid is a young girl who Logan decides to mentor (probably the same girl whose hand is on the poster), with The Wrap saying she has claws like he does, meaning everybody’s prediction about her being a version of Wolverine clone Laura Kinney from the comics was correct.

Directed by James Mangold, the new film marks Hugh Jackman’s ninth and final time in the role. Sir Patrick Stewart, Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant, Eriq La Salle, Elise Neal and Elizabeth Rodriguez co-star. Mangold is directing from a script by David James.

Logan opens in U.S. theaters on March 3, 2017, followed by unannounced X-Men films on October 6, 2017, March 2, 2018, and June 29, 2018. Deadpool 2, Gambit, New Mutants and X-Force are currently in development. With the release date set for early next spring, we should be getting a teaser trailer soon, so stay tuned.
