A new trailer for James Mangold‘s The Wolverine has gone online.  The film finds Hugh Jackman’s titular character isolated in modern day Japan where he faces his ultimate nemesis “in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed.”  This new trailer goes heavy on the drama by showing Logan’s guilt over killing Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) in X-Men: The Last Stand, and why he would consider getting rid of his powers.  This trailer also shows off the strange mix of ancient Japanese warriors and hi-tech sci-fi; a combination that is best represented by the hulking Silver Samurai.  But if Wolverine can shield a guy from what appears to be a nuclear blast, then a giant robot samurai shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer.  The film also stars Will Yun Lee, Hiroyuki Sanada, Brian Tee, Rila Fukushima, Tao Okamoto, and Svetlana KhodchenkovaThe Wolverine opens in 3D on July 26th.

Hugh Jackman Squares off Against Hiroyuki Sanada in New Set Photo from THE WOLVERINE

Shooting wrapped some time ago on The Wolverine, but director James Mangold is happy to keep tweeting set photos.  The latest is a fight between Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Lord Shingen (Hiroyuki Sanada), and Mangold added, “Hiro Sanada and HJ rehearse clash of claws and blades. Hiro is a truly great actor, martial artist and friend.”  I’m sure all of this true, but what I don’t understand about this set photo is how Wolverine is even having a battle against a guy with a sword unless the sword is adamantium.  Adamantium swords would be awesome.

Summer movie season has officially begun with the release of Iron Man 3 this weekend, and now a new poster has landed online for another of this year’s superhero pics.  In the latest trailer for The Wolverine, we caught a glimpse of the villain Silver Samurai.  Given the reveal, director James Mangold has now decided to share a Silver Samurai-centric new poster for the film.  It’s a really swell piece of art that’s in keeping with the Japanese-influenced initial posters for The Wolverine, and I’m interested to see how many more posters like this we’ll be getting.

20th Century Fox has released a new trailer for The Wolverine.  This is the footage that was shown a few weeks ago at CinemaCon, a convention for theater owners, and it’s understandably heavy on the action.  Whlie the previous trailers have played up director James Mangold’s Western approach to the story, this one is very much focused on staging The Wolverine as a big summer movie with loads of action and a badass turn from Hugh Jackman.  There are bits and pieces of new footage folded in, with a brief look at Wolverine fighting Silver Samurai and Svetlana Khodchenkova’s Viper seemingly ripping her face off.

Hit the jump to watch the CinemaCon trailer.  The film also stars Will Yun Lee, Hiroyuki Sanada, Brian Tee, Rila Fukushima, Tao Okamoto and Svetlana Khodchenkova.  The Wolverine opens on July 26th.

New Japanese Trailer for THE WOLVERINE

A new Japanese trailer for director James Mangold’s sequel The Wolverine has made its way online.  The film finds Hugh Jackman’s titular character isolated in modern day Japan where he faces his ultimate nemesis “in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed.”  There are a few bits of new footage to be found in this trailer, including an increased focus on Wolverine’s possible mortality in the face of danger.  The action sequences continue to look impressive, and I’m hoping the reliance on CG is minimal since the most promising stuff in all of the trailers we’ve seen thus far is the tight, hand-to-hand combat scenes.

Fox Will Have to Replace 50% of Their Outdoor Campaign for THE WOLVERINE Due to Theft

It’s hard to create a cool piece of art.  But whoever designed The Wolverine poster featuring a silhouette  of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine with his claws unsheathed knocked it out of the park.  It’s definitely one of the best posters I’ve seen in a long time and it looks like most of you agree with me.

While at the Fox presentation at CinemaCon, I was to talking to a few of their executives and I mentioned how much I loved the poster.  I found out Tony Sella, Fox’s Chief Creative Officer, came up with the Sumi Ink concept and it’s being stolen on a daily basis all over the country.  The exec’s told me they’ll need to replace over 50% of the bus shelters.  I think while it’s a good problem to have, it’s still an issue, because they paid for an ad buy and they want to make sure people see the poster.  Hit the jump the poster.

20th Century Fox has released a batch of high-resolution images from director James Mangold’s upcoming sequel The Wolverine.  The film finds Hugh Jackman’s titular character isolated in modern day Japan where he faces his ultimate nemesis “in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed.”  We recently got a look at the character in action by way of two trailers, but these images give us a closer (and clearer) look at the environment that Mangold has cooked up for the Japan-set story.  We’ve seen a few of these images before in lower resolution versions, but there are also some new peeks at The Wolverine in action, including a rather impressive chain wrangling.

Hit the jump to check out the images.  The film also stars Will Yun Lee, Hiroyuki Sanada, Brian Tee, Rila Fukushima, Tao Okamoto and Svetlana Khodchenkova.  The Wolverine opens on July 26th.

THE WOLVERINE Gets Sweded

We don’t often feature Sweded trailers here on Collider, but when we do you can bet that they’re worth a watch.  Today’s installment features The Wolverine and came to our attention via director James Mangold himself, who proclaimed the Sweded version “FANTASTIC” over Twitter.  I’m inclined to agree.  Both versions are matched up shot for shot with the Sweded version having to get creative with their special effects on a shoestring budget.  You can check out the original trailer for The Wolverine here and hit the jump to see the Sweded version and a side-by-side comparison.

Starring Hugh Jackman, Will Yun Lee, Hiroyuki Sanada, Brian Tee, Rila Fukushima, Tao Okamoto and Svetlana Khodchenkova,  The Wolverine opens on July 26th.

While I already posted the first posters for Spike Lee‘s Oldboy, James Wan‘s Insidious: Chapter 2, Robert Schwentke’s R.I.P.D., and a great display for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, I’ve still got a ton of pictures left to post.  However, rather than offering them up one article at a time, I’m grouping them all into one huge article.

While a lot of the posters you’ve previously seen, there are a few new things like the first logo for Paul Greengrass‘ Somali pirate pic Captain Phillips starring Tom Hanks, the first poster for Where the Devil Hides, and the first display for Jimmy Hayward’s Free Birds starring Woody Harrelson, Owen Wilson and Amy Poehler.  In addition, you can also check out posters/displays for Star Trek Into Darkness, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2, Despicable Me 2, Fast and Furious 6,  Man of Steel, The Lone Ranger, The Heat, Elysium, The East, The Wolverine, The Mortal Instruments, and a lot more.

New Posters for THE HANGOVER PART III and THE WOLVERINE

hangover-3-wolverine-posters-slice

A new poster has been released for The Hangover Part III along with a new international poster for The WolverineThe Hangover poster has the wolf pack dressed to kill, or at least bludgeon severely.  Also, I just realized that Stu’s face tattoo was gone.  I’ll chalk that up to A) The Hangover Part II being incredibly forgettable, and B) I don’t think laser tattoo-removal has reached the point where it wouldn’t leave any trace of a scar.  People who have had tattoos removed: is that possible?  As for The Wolverine poster, it’s not great, but it’s miles better than the other posters except for the teaser.

Hit the jump to check out the posters.  The Hangover Part III opens on May 24th.  The Wolverine opens in 3D on July 26th.

New Behind-the-Scenes Images from THE WOLVERINE and THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2

by     Posted: April 10th, 2013 at 11:11 am

Some new behind-the-scenes images from two highly anticipated summer movies (one in 2013 and one in 2014) have made their way online.  First up, director James Mangold has shared some fascinating behind-the-scenes look at his sequel The Wolverine.  The images give us a look at the big-budget production, specifically unveiling a peek at how Mangold crafted that nifty-looking bullet train action sequence and a couple other interesting scenes.

Additionally, director Marc Webb has shared a rather tantalizing image from the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which is currently in production in New York City.  Webb prefaced the photo by noting that it’s a look at some destruction from Jamie Foxx’s Electro, and it appears that the villain will be very skilled at causing fires.  Hit the jump to take a look at the images.  The Wolverine opens in 3D on July 26th and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters in 3D on May 2, 2014.

TOP 5: THE WOLVERINE Trailers, G.I. JOE: RETALIATION, First Trailer and Poster for WHITE HOUSE DOWN, PAIN & GAIN, THE HOST Interviews

collider-top-5-slice

Before I dive into the main topic of this week’s opening paragraph, just a quick disclaimer that the Top 5 will be taking a week off next Saturday to accommodate the first, and perhaps only, trip to Hawaii I will ever take. Here’s to hoping it’s less awkward but equally as life-changing and Kristen Bell/Mila Kunis-filled as Forgetting Sarah Marshall depicted. That said, while it fell just short of the cut this week, I still want to draw attention to the first trailer for director Adam Wingard‘s You’re Next that debuted on Thursday. As a horror fan, I’m always excited when a new entry in the genre gets lauded from both sides of the aisle (horror fans and those who aren’t as giddy about movies that make them think twice about turning out the lights). As far as I’m concerned, August 23rd can’t get here soon enough.

All Hawaii and horror fanboy talk aside, this week’s list offers up the first trailer(s) for The Wolverine, interviews with Dwayne Johnson and more for G.I. Joe: Retaliation, the first trailer and posters for White House Down, a new red-band trailer for Pain & Gain, and The Host interviews with Saoirse Ronan and more. As you’re probably expecting, a brief recap and link to all of the above can be found after the jump.

Hugh Jackman Talks THE WOLVERINE, the Bullet Train Sequence, Viper, and the Film’s X-MEN Cameo

After a couple of days of teasing (literally), we finally got our first good look at director James Mangold’s sequel The Wolverine yesterday by way of a debut domestic trailer and an international trailer.  Though both trailers offered up different bits of footage, it’s absolutely clear that Mangold and star Hugh Jackman are ramping up the level of intensity for the character this time around.  Jackman recently talked a bit about some of the more interesting aspects of the trailer, addressing the Viper character, that crazy-looking bullet train sequence, and how the cameo from a familiar X-Men character fits into the film’s story.  Hit the jump to see what he had to say.

Domestic Trailer for THE WOLVERINE

hugh-jackman-the-wolverine-slice

The international trailer for director James Mangold’s sequel The Wolverine was released about a half-hour ago, and now the domestic version is online.  The film finds Hugh Jackman’s titular character isolated in modern day Japan where he faces his ultimate nemesis “in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed.”  The U.S. trailer contains new footage, and while I think the international version is slightly better, both trailers hammer home the “life-or-death battle”. The big difference is that the U.S. version reveals the man offering Wolverine a chance at mortality.

Hit the jump to watch the trailer.  The film also stars Will Yun Lee, Hiroyuki Sanada, Brian Tee, Rila Fukushima, Tao Okamoto and Svetlana Khodchenkova.  The Wolverine opens on July 26th
