Hugh Jackman unveils details for 'Logan'
The actor and lead star in the Wolverine franchise opened up with some crucial new details today (October 5th 2016) on what will be the third and final instalment of his X-Men character's stand alone series. It follows 2009's 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' and 2013's 'The Wolverine'.
Jackman revealed the news on Twitter in the form of a picture of a huge poster on the side of the building, featuring a small hand holding Wolverine's much larger hand, the adamantium claws retracted. The poster reads simply 'Logan', as the title, and March 3rd, as the release date. He followed the shot with a selfie in the same place, revealing him to be on the corner of Bleecker Street and Lafayette Street in New York City.

Hugh Jackman will return alongside new arrivals Boyd Holbrook, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Stephen Merchant and Richard E. Grant.
