In October, we got our first look at the first and last dark and gritty R-rated Wolverine movie titled Logan. The movie will be the final Wolverine film starring Hugh Jackman who has donned the claws 8 times in the last 20 years.
The film looks brutal, emotional, and intense. The trailer left us craving more and today, some lucky fans and members of the press got to see the first 40 minutes of the film. The lucky audience has been blowing up Twitter with their reactions talking about how incredibly amazing it is and faithful it is to the comics in terms of having a brutal and bloody Wolverine. You can view some of the initial reactions below.
My palms are sweating right now. This is R-rated epic. I was skeptic about R-rated Wolverine movie but 5 minutes in, I'm all in.

Alright, well the language is a little much for a Wolverine movie. But the violence was really cool. The R-rating does give it a fresh take.

Logan is already my favorite of the Wolverine franchise by a large margin.

Dafne Keen was unbelievably awesome as Laura (X-23). It's like Ellie and Joel from The Last of Us on a perfect amount of steroids.

Just saw 40 minutes of LOGAN. VERY violent. Very much rated R. Logan and Xavier are old and sad. It's depressing. I liked it.
