One of the pillars of the Marvel comic book series X-Men is Wolverine, who is also known as Logan. Now with two movies focusing on the lead character, Wolverine released in 2009 and 2013 respectively, 20th Century Fox will be releasing a third "Wolverine" movie under the movie title "Logan."
The movie "Logan" will be the Australian actor Hugh Jackman's eighth movie as Wolverine/Logan. Out of the nine X-Men movie franchise, he did not only appear in the movie "X-Men: First Class" released in 2011.
Focusing on an aging Wolverine, the movie "Logan" is a story on how he and Charles Xavier (more popularly known as Professor X) must protect the dying species of mutants from being extinct. In order to do so, they must protect a young female who is a clone of Wolverine from an evil organization led by Nathaniel Essex, according to IMDb.
Now in its post-production stage, the action-adventure sci-fi movie "Logan" is set to be released on March 3, 2017. Directing the film is James Mangold who also directed the last Wolverine movie released in 2013, which would make him a great choice to the sequel on the same character.

With Mangold are writers Michael Green (known for his other mutant films he wrote such as "Green Lantern" and "Fantastic Four") and Scott Frank (who is known for other action films such as "Minority Report" and the previous "Wolverine" movie), as added by Rotten Tomatoes. This is considered a solid line up.
With a top caliber director and writers, the cast of the movie "Logan" does not fail in comparison. Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart will return to play their roles as Wolverine and Professor X, respectively. Together with them are Boyd Holbrook, Doris Morgado, Richard Grant, and many more.
On the verge of extinction, will Logan and Charles Xavier be able to save the young mutant girl that could be their only hope? Find out and watch together with Wolverine fans in March.
