The long in development Wolverine movie is finally getting closer to production. IGN is reporting that Director Gavin Hood is considering filming the movie in Australia to help make life easier for Producer/Star Hugh Jackman.
The former Tony and Emmy winner is currently filming Australia in, you guessed it, Australia. The thinking is an Aussie based Wolverine shoot would free up Jackman for any ADR work and/or re-shoots for the Baz Luhrmann epic.
Wolverine is expected to shoot this November for a possible 2008 release.
On the side: Dougray Scott was initially cast as Wolverine in the first X-men movie. He had to step down after shooting for Mission: Impossible II ran too long. Hugh Jackman was then tabbed to slip on the claws for his career making role.
