Simon Kinberg has become the go-to producer/screenwriter for a number of franchises, most notably X-Men and Star Wars, but Hugh Jackman’s final Wolverine movie (coming in 2017) will be one of the most important productions he has worked on yet.
Jackman has been adamant in the news that the script is perfect and includes things fans of Wolverine want to see. Kinberg is quoted as saying the following on the script:
“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. What Hugh said to you is the attitude we all have—myself, Lauren Shuler Donner, the studio, [director] James Mangold, Hutch Parker—all of us, feel like this is six or seven or eight (depending on how you count) movies in the making, and there are few characters in the history of cinema who have cast as big a shadow as Wolverine, so to tell the final chapter of that story, it has to be the best, and it has to have a mythic quality to it. So 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’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.”
Kinberg also confirmed that Jackman’s ideas for the movie are indeed part of the script.
Hugh Jackman’s final Wolverine solo film is scheduled for release on March 3rd, 2017.
