Hollywood film-maker BRETT RATNER is reportedly close to signing a deal to direct the X-MEN spin-off WOLVERINE, after impressing producers with his work on upcoming second sequel X-MEN: THE LAST STAND. The RUSH HOUR director is keen for HUGH JACKMAN to reprise his brooding superhero for the project, and LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS actor VINNIE JONES is also in contention to repeat his forthcoming JUGGERNAUT role. Jones tells MTV, "(Brett) was saying that they'll probably use a lot of the characters. Hopefully (the Wolverine/Juggernaut rivalry) will come into it."

Jeane - Thanx for posting this! Seems that someone was impressed with Mr. Ratner's work on X-3.

Is David Benioff still writing the script for WOLVERINE?

Paula-

That's the last I heard. Plus, that it's a prequel to the X-Men trilogy.

Jeane, Isn't it interesting that Vinnie Jones will be in the prequel. He was also in SWORDFISH with Hugh. That will be 3 times that Vinnie worked with HJ. Lucky Vinnie!
