Since the first installment of the X-Men movie series in 2000, the cinematic history of the Wolverine and the X-Men has the Wolverine, played by Hugh Jackman, as the glue that connects all of the stories together. And why not? As portrayed by Mr.Jackman, he’s a charismatic loner albeit a dangerous, complex, and hot-tempered mutant prone to fits of rage and violence. Toss in some retractable claws and a nearly unlimited healing ability and you get quite the compelling protagonist. Case in point, the just released “X-Men: Days of Future Past” directed by Bryan Singer. The X-Men in the future are in deep trouble. They desperately need someone who has amazing healing abilities allowing the person to travel 50 years into the past by way of powerful psychic but brain damaging means. Enter Wolverine.
