Hugh Jackman Clears Up Wolverine Reshoot Rumors

January 20th, 2009

Hugh Jackman has personally rejected reports that the cast of the new movie ‘Wolverine’ were reshooting scenes in Canada for any other reason than “scheduling conflicts” and “weather considerations”.

Rumors have been rife that filming of the flick has been plagued with problems, with the latest round prompting speculation that Fox is unhappy with the finished product.

Jackman emailed the following message to Ain’t It Cool News over the weekend to clear up the stories:

‘Hey everyone –

It’s Hugh Jackman, sending this note from freezing Vancouver. I have read a lot of your online comments regarding the footage that we are currently shooting and I share your passion for the Wolverine character and the movie – I owe it all to you guys!

I wanted to reach out and let you know that due to scheduling conflicts with certain cast members and location/weather considerations, we had to wait until now to shoot a couple of scenes. Please rest assured that WOLVERINE will be badass and hopefully meet all of your expectations. I am stoked by the positive response to the teaser, which clearly reflects the tone and scope of the film. If you like that, we’ve got much more in store!

In the meantime, here’s an exclusive shot of some characters you may recognize…

Cheers,

Hugh’
