The trailer for the third Wolverine movie, Logan, is officially here. We’re not completely excited to see Hugh Jackman reprise the role in his final film for the franchise, but it’s the FINAL FILM IN THE FRANCHISE.

Set in the year 2024, we find the X-Men are all but gone, save an aging Logan and Prof. X, whose respective powers are fading. Meanwhile, a shady corporation called Transigen is turning mutant children into weapons and…you can see in the trailer above what sort of conflicts that sets up for Wolverine.

I cannot express how deeply excited am I for this film. Love him or hate him, Hugh Jackman has played a different Wolverine.  Knowing that is aging and is fighting a battle with cancer it is great to know that we get this final send off from him before he leaves the X-Men Universe.

Hugh first joined the franchise back in 2000 in the first Bryan Singer lead X-Men film from FOX Studios, a partnership that seemed the right call at the time.  This was the superhero film world BEFORE Iron Man and the MCU.  While some of the casting choices made no sense, (no seriously, WOLVERINE IS HOW TALL IN THE COMICS?  He’s not Hugh Jackman attractive either) fans immediately took a shine to the Aussie who called everyone Bub.

We try to forget to horror that was the first Wolverine film, because let’s be honest, it was a NIGHTMARE. “Oh, it’s not done yet” the studio cried when a finished print leaked onto the pirate sites, but no amount of post production was going to save that….thing. At least Wolverine 2 had a better script, and for the most part, better almost everything.

Logan hits theaters on March 3, 2017, followed by Deadpool 2 on January 12, 2018. Movie versions of Gambit, New Mutants and X-Force are still somewhere in development.
