Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine has blood on his claws

Logan, aka Wolverine, has been getting his claws dirty in this brand new still from the ‘The Wolverine’.

There’s blood dripping from Hugh Jackman’s adamantium blades, so we assume he’s been fighting in that pristine Japanese garden.

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, ‘The Wolverine’ finds Logan, living in Japan. There, we’re promised he will ‘confront samurai steel’, and will be vulnerable for the first time as he confronts a mysterious figure from his past.

‘The Wolverine’ is directed by James Mangold, who replaced original director Darren Aronofsky in 2011.
