The script writer for the Wolverine spin off movie David Benioff is talking about what we can expect in the script to Comic Book Movies:
Benioff plans to “rough” Jackman’s Wolverine up a bit, showing more of his berserker side only teased at in X2’s mansion invasion scenes. The story will be a “bit darker and a bit more brutal” and geared toward an R rating.
That’s great news, if the Studio, Producers and Director, will all let that happen too, at least the first step will be in the right direction. He goes on to say…
…my concept of him for this movie is the one I grew up with: He’s a gritty character, a tough, working-class Canadian guy who was born with certain special powers and granted more through a series of brutal experiments for more that’s my Wolverine reality. Im not going too far from that.
Gone are the more fanciful stories that the character gets involved in, and it looks like it’s more down to reality with fighting bad guys and killing them with a bit of violence thrown in. How does that suit?
