‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ Gets Its First Movie Trailer

Wolverine takes center stage
December 15th, 2008

Over the weekend, folks who made their way out to see The Day the Earth Stood Still in theaters were treated to the first viewing of the new trailer for X-Men Origins: Wolverine which stars Hugh Jackman in the role that made him a superstar. In this X-Men prequel due in theaters next May, we will learn how Logan became the X-Men member known as Wolverine:


Hugh Jackman reprises the role that made him a superstar – as the fierce fighting machine who possesses amazing healing powers, retractable claws and a primal fury. Leading up to the events of X-MEN, X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE 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 whose appearances in the film series have long been anticipated.

Man O Man … this looks so good. I love how it appears that Hugh Jackman has a clause in every movie contract he signs that stipulates that he MUST appear half nekkid and/or wet at least one time per film. Le sigh. After the jump, check out the HD trailer in full …


Yessir … sign me up for this one. Judging by this trailer alone, the film looks great! Liev Schreiber makes a pretty good Sabretooth, I might add. And hello, Gambit! I am really looking forward to this movie. Do y’all like this trailer as much as I do?

    We saw the Day the Earth Stood Still yesterday, and this trailer was 1000x better that the movie…

  2. Missy Says:

    Definitely looking forward to the movie, cause Kevin Durand (Keamy from Lost) is The Blob.

  3. Stephanie Says:

    What CAN’T Hugh Jackman do?

    I can’t see any wrong with the man.

  4. Chic Baker Says:

    I’ve been waiting for Gambit to surface. He was always my fave on the cartoon. There’s just something about that accent…

  5. kristy Says:

  6. Mr. Gyllenhaal Says:

    I am really pumped for this movie too!! It look awesome.

  7. Pam Says:

    I agree with Chic Baker… every time he would talk to Rogue in the comic books and start with the whole “mon cheri” thing I would melt. His whole background as a french thief makes him even more hot hahahaah he was a bad bad boy! Since they started making the xmen movies I was hoping they would include Gambit. Wolverine is still my favourite since I was a 15 year old girl reading comic books to kill time (those were the days!!) but Gambit is right there after Logan. Oh Logan…. so pissed off at the world, such a bad temper… so hot!

  8. Scott Says:

    Did anyone else see the small, white-haired girl? I think we get to see Storm as a child!

  9. random00b Says:

    We don’t see him in the trailer, but isn’t Ryan Reynolds in the film as Deadpool. Between him, Hugh Jackman, Liev Schrieber, and Taylor Kitsch (Gambit), movie screen might just melt from the hotness on May 1st!

  10. apples Says:

    Where is that dog tag placed?! Let’s hope it’s his chest… or not hope. ;)

  11. Corey Says:

    You do see Ryan Reynolds… he is in a red shirt playing with swords… the hotness abounds in this movie

  12. Dianna Says:

  13. Georgie Says:

  14. La Princesa Says:

    I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!

    And, Trent, every time I got to a Hugh Jackman film, I anticipate him shirtless–I can’t remember if he was in Kate & Leopold, though…regardless, I love him! My friends laugh, because I swear I stop breathing when the shirt comes off. This one will be NO different, because–dayum!–did you see the guns and pecs on him?!?!

    Whew!

  15. Trillian Says:

    Seems a little like Highlander…

  16. The BKC Says:

    Seems a little like Highlander

    LOL!!!!!!!!!!! Haaaaaa…and there can be only one!!!

  17. Sara Says:

    Yeah, it showed Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. He’s in the red with the swords near the beginning.

  18. badwhodo Says:

    OMG GAMBIT! I fucking LOVE Gambit! Best X-Man EVER!

  19. Rachel Says:

    YES PLEASE! So excited!

  20. cat c Says:

    OMG, good lord, I’ve been waiting for a US movie with Daniel Henney. **le sigh**

  21. JoZee Says:

    As much as I love Gambit (been in love with him since the day I traded my phoenix trading card for his in the 3rd grade)… it feels like a cop-out just throwing him into the Wolverine movie. Because honestly, I can’t say I EVER remember Wolverine and Gambit meeting prior to Gambit joining the Xmen. Gambit should have been in the movies (perhaps then the last two wouldn’t have sucked so much)

  22. xiola Says:

    I still think Josh Holloway of Lost would be the best Gambit ever.

  23. Vicki Says:

    WHERE’S MY DOM? I was so excited when I heard that Dominic Monaghan would be playing Beak but he hasn’t been getting any love in the trailer/promo pic area.

  24. Rolltideguy77 Says:

    Was that Emma Frost turning into diamond?

  25. Marelle Says:

    I’m happy about Gambit too!
