Tom Rothman and the filming of Wolverine

[narrows101]

There's a very long Tom Rothman interview here:

http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_d4j_ezine&task=read&page=1&category=featured&article=462&Itemid=27

He says this about Wolverine - basically the filming of the movie is up to Hugh. My guess is after he films the Baz Luhrmann movie which is supposed to start in February and according to Hugh in another interview take up a chunk of next year.

IESB: Going back to the X-Men properties, Wolverine, there was a script review online, has the script changed much since then?

TR: I don’t know, what was the review?

IESB: I don’t know, I didn’t read that review, I try to stay away from script reviews.

TR: You should. There’s a David Benioff script, all we’ve ever had is a first draft so it’s being worked on right now, so if there was a script review it could only have been entirely premature.

IESB: I do know it was a positive review

TR: Even if it’s positive, I am glad it’s positive and we’re optimistic the first draft was good but that’s all that could have possibly been. We are no where near a finished script on that.

IESB: And when could we expect any movement on that, sometime next year?


TR: Our hope would be that Hugh Jackman after he does Baz Luhrmann’s film in Australia next year, the first half of next year, our hope would be that he would do it in the second half of next year. That really ultimately will be up to him.

The only thing kinda new is the filming - seems they are hoping to do it towards the end of next year. Hugh's movie with Nicole Kidman directed by Baz Luhrmann starts in February and it's rumored to take about six months.
