I don’t know about your feelings on the forthcoming return of Hugh Jackman’s THE WOLVERINE, but the mutant sequel has a very low-key appearance amongst a very overcrowded summer. The majority of the action in the X-MEN spin-off will take place in Japan as the adamantiam-clawed Logan is offered the chance to rid his immortal curse, only to come up against the formidable foes in shapeshifting beauty Viper and sword-swinging Silver Samurai. The latter villain landing his own blotted poster below.
Oscar-winning director James Mangold is at the helm for THE WOLVERINE, which aslos co-stars Will Yun Lee, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Hiroyuki Sanada, Hal Yamanouchi, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima and Brian Tee. It hits cinemas 26th July

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
