‘The Wolverine’ sequel script almost done
“We’re pretty close to a script that everyone’s excited about, and I don’t know when the start date is, but we won’t start until it’s ready to shoot,” he told Collider.
“I’m saying ‘but’ and I’m sounding a little cagey because this is the last time I’m playing him, and I have just made the commitment to myself, really, and told everyone that until that script is perfect, until it is that perfect way to sign out, I’m not gonna start shooting,” he told Collider.
Jackson mentioned the script is still being developed, saying that “I’ll be really honest with you, the actual script in its full form we’re up to about Page 60….Obviously there’s a treatment, so it’s not fully done yet, we’re not fully there.”
Kinberg reiterated what Jackman said before about finding the best story for the final chapter of the movie.
“We have to get it right, and I think we will, and my experience working with Jim Mangold, I’ve been extraordinarily impressed with him,” he said. “He’s just a really great storyteller; he’s incredible with character. Really diligent, just a special talent. I have very high hopes for that movie.”
“I can’t talk about what it is, but I will say that in its essence it’s something that Hugh has been excited about for a while, and something James Mangold is incredibly excited about, and the two of them together is a pretty neat thing to watch having made a movie together, and I thought they made a pretty good one,” Kinberg added.
“They just have a shorthand fluency and trust. It’s really nice to watch,” the film producer added.
Wolverine 3 is scheduled for release on March 3, 2017
