MTV recently sat down with Hugh Jackman and the Aussie actor revealed that although he would like to see an R rated
Wolverine movie, they can't forget about the little uns..
"There’s such great temptation to make an R rated Wolverine.” says Jackman. “I’ve always felt that and I know a lot of fans would like that and I totally get it. If there is ever a superhero that’s going to be R rated, it’s Wolverine. However in the last 10 years I’ve also met many 12, 13, 14, 15 year olds who for them Wolverine is not just cool you see it in their eyes, he’s everything to them."
“My thing to [director] James Mangold, we were like ‘lets not put it off the table.’” Jackman continues. “There’s even talk about us doing 2 versions as in finding a way to do both while you shoot it, which could be really cool. But you need to have a really good reason to exclude those [younger] fans.”
Hugh Jackman will star in
The Wolverine, the movie is a prequel and will be set in Japan, it will explore the past of the mutant as a Samurai, with Silver Samurai confirmed as the villain. No official release date yet
