Damn straight.
Two very interesting bits of Wolverine news
1. Director wanting Gerard Butler to play Sabretooth.
2. Its only a rumour... but I can hope....
Its possible that a certain Mercenary with a sick twisted sense of humour, a bit of a mouth, and a love for Bea Arthur might be popping up in the film...
DEADPOOL!!!!!

December 12, 2007
In this announcement at ComingSoon.net about 20th Century Fox's 2009 tentpoles, the studio has revealed the official synopsis for X-Men Origins: Wolverine:
X-Men Origins: Wolverine is set to star Jackman and will be directed by Gavin Hood (Tsotsi, Rendition). The producers are Lauren Shuler Donner and Ralph Winter (who produced all three previous "X-Men" films), along with Jackman and his Seed Prods. producing partner, John Palermo. The film will be executive produced by Marvel Films' Kevin Feige.
Leading up to the events of X-Men, X-Men Origins: Wolverine – written by David Benioff (The Kite Runner, Troy) – tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed, and the ominous Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legends of the X-Men universe.
Because they want to make it sure people know it's an origin movie. Calling it just Wolverine could make people think it could take place during current times or after the X-Men movies.Why don't they just call it "Wolverine"?
Not a bad poster.
I agree. I like the image of the wolverine one him, except that now it looks like he's missing the top of his headNot a bad poster.
Also, it distances itself from a superhero-ish look and piques the interest across a much broader demographic of filmgoers.
Actuall, if you read the link, it's still not confirmed whether the role Chase is negotiating for is Gambit. It seems highly likely, but the story never drops the name.CBR:
According to the Sunday Star-Times, actor Bailey Chase is in negotiations to play Gambit in the mutant-minded movie.
It probably is.Gambit's cool , I hope it's him
It probably is.
I'm just a stickler for accurate reporting and source citations.
