Latest Wolverine film ‘Logan’ to star an older and more jaded hero

Hugh Jackman has drawn back the curtains from his latest Wolverine film.

In a tweet, the Hollywood actor confirmed that his new project is titled "Logan," the real name of his X-Men character.

Jackman attached a photo of the teaser poster, showing a clawed hand being held by a smaller hand.

Director James Mangold, who helmed "The Wolverine" in 2013, gave further details on the film.

Mangold has also posted a photo of a page of the movie's screenplay on his Twitter account, warning fans that the film will be heavy.

The screenplay also revealed that the Wolverine in the movie will be older and more jaded.

"As for our hero, well, he's older now and it's clear his abilities aren't what they once were. He's fading on the inside and his diminished healing factor keeps him in a constant state of chronic pain — hence booze as a painkiller," it read.

"Logan" will open in Philippine theaters on March 1, 2017. — Jessica Bartolome / AT, GMA News
