- Lauren Shuler Donner talked about the X-Men Origins: Wolverine sequel:
"This movie will really focus on the relationship between Wolverine and Mariko, the daughter of a Japanese crime lord, and what happens to him in Japan. [...]
Wolverine will be fighting in a different style to what we've seen before. Mariko's father has this stick-like weapon, so Wolverine will have to fight against that. There'll be samurai, ninja, katana blades, different forms of martial arts - mano-a-mano, extreme fighting. We're going to come up with a new style of fighting.”

13.02.2009
- Beginning Sunday, February 15, viewers across the nation can witness the origins of one of the year’s most anticipated movies, when Twentieth Century Fox debuts an exclusive, three-part exclusive reveal of X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE on FOX.
For this unprecedented promotional event – which is too big for one night – the studio has created three special sixty-second spots, one leading into the next, and which together form a narrative. The first spot airs this Sunday (February 15) on “Family Guy,” the second on Monday (Feb. 16) on “House,” and the third on Tuesday (Feb. 17) on “American Idol.”
X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE, the first chapter in the X-Men saga, unites Wolverine with several other legends of the X-Men universe, in an epic revolution that pits the mutants against powerful forces determined to eliminate them.
Hugh Jackman, who reprises the role that made him a superstar, is joined by Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston, Dominic Monaghan, and Ryan Reynolds, as well as Taylor Kitsch, will.i.am, and Lynn Collins. Gavin Hood directs from a screenplay by David Benioff and Skip Woods (writing credit not yet final). The producers are Lauren Shuler Donner, Ralph Winter, Hugh Jackman, and John Palermo.
X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE opens in theaters May 1, 2009.

- And more from Will.i.am regarding shooting X-Men Origins: Wolverine (BBC):
“You star in the new Wolverine film alongside Hugh Jackman - do you have trouble remembering your lines there?
No, that's easy because you're going off of the emotion. I don't want to tell you a specific scene, but they'll say: "Okay, we're picking up from mid-argument" and we just go. Rapping is different because it's rhyme and rhythm.
Have you enjoyed the filming?
It just doesn't seem real for some reason. Maybe it's because I'm sleepy.
Even working with Michael Jackson seemed real, even though it was, you know, surreal, but the Wolverine thing seems like a big dream.
”
30.04.2008
- Will.i.am talked about his part in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (BBC):
“I did a good job when I read for the part. I feel real confident about my role and my execution on my role in the movie. I'm Wolverine's best friend Logan in the movie. I love it. That's my favourite movie out of all of them. Spider-Man's cool but I like X-Men. Matrix, Lord of the Rings, X-Men - that order.”

- Hugh Jackman commented on the feel of X-Men Origins: Wolverine (MTV):

“We are dealing with a character who is probably one of the darker comic book characters ever created.” [...]
“The movie has a lot of fun elements, but there are layers of pain and darkness to this character.” [...]
"Tonally, I would put it more in the ‘Batman Begins’ sort of realm." [...] "That’s sort of where we’re headed.” [...]
“There are two conditions for me doing any more: One is will anybody want to see it, and the second is: Will I still have the passion for it?” [...]
“I really wanted to do this spin-off movie, because I felt we hadn’t truly found who this character was.” [...]
“Right now, I feel like I could do another ten or eleven.”
24.04.2008
- Hugh Jackman talked a little bit about X-Men Origins: Wolverine (The Herald Sun):
‘‘I'm used to these movies now,'' he says. ‘‘They're big and there's a lot involved, a lot at stake, so it's always high pressure. But Gavin Hood, our director, is a real force. He's an Oscar-winning director (for Tsotsi) and he's used to working under different kinds of pressure and stresses.''
Jackman hand-picked Melbourne youngster Kodi Smit-McPhee (Romulus, My Father) to play Wolverine as a young man.
‘‘He's one of those kids who's fearless,'' Jackman says. ‘‘I hope he doesn't read this article because yes, there is pressure on him because of who he's playing and the expectations of fans. I was lucky to be completely ignorant of fans' expectations and the whole world before X-Men came out. I just hope he doesn't read too much or go on the internet because he naturally has the goods I know the fans will love.''

- Daniel Henney talks about talks about choosing X-Men Origins: Wolverine as his film debut in America (Seouldelight):
"Although I received many offers from Hollywood in the past, they were usually for stereotypical, hackneyed Oriental roles that Western audiences are used to. However, the advantage of being a native English speaker and having a westernized physique can be utilized to play a different, more original role not given to other Asian actors; therefore, breaking the barrier of the stereotypical oriental character. The character in “X-men Origins” fulfilled my expectations, which helped me decide to play a role in this film.”

- USA Today released the first official photo from the movie Wolverine.
Hugh Jackman: "I know it seems odd given, you know, the guy is already half animal. [...]
But with all the success of the X-Men, you feel the pressure to keep pushing it further. [...]
I became a fan of Wolverine like everyone else. That's why I keep holding on to the character. [...]
I think one of the reasons the X-Men took off is that it connected in a way nobody saw. They're mutants with powers. But they're also outcasts for being, and everyone connects with that on some level. And who wouldn't want the power to get back at the people who ostracized you? [...]
You can't give too much away, because fans are pretty hard-core. Their expectations go up a level every time you come out with a new film."
Postdated - Filming has started early January 2008 in New Zealand.
