"The Wolverine 3" will mark the final appearance of Hugh Jackman as Logan a.k.a Wolverine. Directed by James Mangold, the film is based on the "Old Man Logan" comic book. Jackman will depict an older Logan as hinted by his full beard and flecks of gray in some set photos from the upcoming movie.
Based on a screenplay written by Michael Green and David James Kelly, the story will be set in the future, where supervillains have taken control over the world. The film is being produced by Lauren Shuler Donner, Simon Kinberg and Hutch Parker.
Jackman will star alongside Patrick Stewart, who reprises his role as Charles Xavier a.k.a Professor X, in the upcoming film. The film also stars Boyd Holbrook, Richard E. Grant, Stephen Merchant and Elise Neal. The final Wolverine solo movie is scheduled for a U.S. release on March 3, 2017.
