The Wolverine Gets A July 26, 2013 Release Date

20th Century Fox has announced that The Wolverine, starring Hugh Jackman, has a July 26th, 2013 release date.

The second of the franchise will be directed by James Mangold, with a script by Christopher McQuarrie and Mark Bomback.

The movie will see Wolverine in Japan feuding with Japanese warriors as well as the Silver Samurai.

Previously, Mangold said the following:

“I think that this movie is much more an intense psychological and action-packed character piece, that’s much more about Logan getting lost in this very unique and insulated world of Japanese culture, gangster culture, and ninja culture,” he said. “The fighting is going to be unique because it’s all influenced by Japanese martial arts.”
