'Wolverine 3' Release Date, News & Updates: Working Title Revealed For Hugh Jackman Movie, 'Old Man Logan' Storyline Coming?

Although "Wolverine 3" is rumored to start filming in April, many new details are emerging about the film. In fact, the film starring Hugh Jackman already has its temporary working title, "Juarez," as reported by Production Weekly.

Rumors have long speculated that the "Wolverine 3" plot will follow the storyline of "Old Man Logan." Taking into consideration that Mark Millar arc bears the setting of a barren California desert, this may indicate that "Wolverine 3" is pursuing that path.

"Juarez" is a Mexican city located in the Chihuahuan Desert, and if the name isn't just a random word, it could point to the harsh and arid climate of the area," reports Tommy DePaoli of MoviePilot.

Meanwhile, ScreenRant reports that "Wolverine 3" director James Mangold has been looking at "Wolverine" comic books for inspiration on the film adaptation's story line, which includes "Old Man Logan."

So it doesn't seem too far-fetched that "Wolverine 3" will delve more into the "Old Man Logan" storyline. As a matter of fact, it may even serve as a good conclusion for Jackman's final reprisal of Wolverine.

Furthermore, several reports have claimed that "Wolverine 3" will be getting an R-rating, following the success of R-rated "Deadpool."

According to Collider, "Wolverine 3" will start production on April 25, with shooting locations in New Mexico and New Orleans. Additionally, Jackman recently revealed that the final script isn't exactly finished yet, which may delay production.

"Wolverine 3" releases on March 3, 2017.
