Wolverine “Kid Friendly” Rumour

The X-Men Origins: Wolverine set seems to have spawned a dirty rumour about the art direction of the film. Leaked through the set and onto the net is a possibility that someone on the inside is trying to “lighten” the set peices so that Wolverine is not so dark and gritty. The words “kid friendly” are being thrown around and I don’t care much for that.

MoviesOnline offers:

The rumor is that Gavin Hood was overseeing the building of a set that had a “dark, dinghy and somber side” to them. Then when the director left the set to go shoot something or to begin prepping things, Fox CEO Tim Rothman had the set completely repainted from top to bottom.

Wolverine NEEDS to have a grittier edge. The beauty of the character is that he is a tortured soul lost within his own mystery about his past. But he is a softy too. When time comes we know that Wolverine is the hero even though he just shanked a league of ninjas.

I do hope that this is just a rumour. If they candy coat this film it will take away that darker side that Wolverine struggles with.

I just hope that they dont bring about a sidekick that calls him “Wolvie-guy”. A brighter set might not kill the whole movie, so maybe its just one piece instead of an overall “goal” to be more kid friendly.
