New Image From ‘The Wolverine’ Officially Released

A few days back we saw a low-res scan of a new image from James Mangold’s The Wolverine and now to build up anticipation for the release of the film’s trailer, Fox has officially released the still image. The film promises to be the “badass” Wolverine film that we all want to see and from what we’ve seen so far, it may live up to that claim.

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before.

The Wolverine hits theaters July 26, 2013.
