Before Hugh Jackman reprises his role as Wolverine in Bryan Singer’s ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’, he’ll first star in a solo adventure for James Mangold in ‘The Wolverine’. Taking place after ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’ and based on the landmark story by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller, this film finds our hero in a state of isolation in the Land of the Rising Sun. ‘Samurai steel will clash with adamantium claw” as Logan confronts a mysterious figure from his past in an epic battle that will leave him forever changed.

Jackman and company are hard at work putting the film together and now the PR people have started to step their game up as well. They’ve just released a brand new international poster featuring Wolverine perched high above a Japanese city wielding both his claws and a samurai sword. You can check out the poster below, but for the super cool motion poster, head on over to Marvel.com.

‘The Wolverine’ starring Hugh Jackman, Will Yun Lee, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Hiroyuki Sanada, Hal Yamanouchi, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima, and Brian Tee will be in theaters on July 26, 2013.
