First Official Photo of Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine!

Man just when I thought the world of entertainment was abandoning me and was going to give me nothing to blog about I find out about this development via IGN. We finally have out first official picture of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine.

All I can say is damn, this is a pretty hardcore picture of Hugh Jackman. He never really goes halfway with his physique. Look at those abs and those frigging veins are pretty insane too. While I assume that this picture has been Photoshoped somewhat, it still looks pretty badass. I’ve wondered for a while what Logan would look like in The Wolverine and this picture gives us a decent indication as to what to expect. I like how the character still has the rough and ready look about him and this picture alone makes me more interested in this film than I was before. Now obviously a good picture does not make a great film and I’m still feeling wary of another Wolverine film especially after the last abysmal attempt in 2009. But here the script this time is more impressive than the last film and if Darren Aronofsky was involved beforehand then this must be worth checking out. And Jame Mangold’s resume looks a lot better than the last guy so here’s hoping for a decent Wolverine film that I’ll actually want to watch more than once in the cinema.

2013 is getting more and more interesting for films by the day.
