‘The Wolverine’ set for July 26, 2013 release date

Box Office Mojo has listed July 26, 2013 as the release date for The Wolverine, and Fox just emailed to confirm that the date is correct. Production was originally scheduled to begin last fall, but filming was pushed to this summer to accommodate star Hugh Jackman‘s shooting schedule for Tom Hooper’s Les Miserables.

James Mangold is set to direct The Wolverine from Mark Bomback‘s rewrite of Christopher McQuarrie‘s script, which sees Wolverine traveling to Japan.
