Yes folks, Fox has offered the job to James Mangold, whom has directed serious films before like 3:10 To Yuma. Yes, he also directed Knight and Day, which was awful beyond belief. But, since this won’t be a romantic-action comedy flick (i hope not), Mangold should do well.
The original pick, Darren Aronofsky (Black Swan), would have been very interesting to say the least. But, James Mangold should be able to pull off a serious tone also, if FOX leaves him be. Although, reports have already circulated that the original script has been changed heavily, so who knows what it looks like now.
I really want to see a serious Wolverine flick, as Wolverine is a very serious and interesting character with deep-seated issues. So, I’m hoping that FOX doesn’t try to cater to the kiddies. For now though, this is a good step in direction for the film.
