Jackman To Bring Wolverine To Mexico

From: imdb.com

Hugh Jackman will cheer up victims of swine flu in Mexico - he is planning a special screening of new movie X-men Origins: Wolverine.

The blockbuster was due to debut in Mexico City on 29 April but officials axed the premiere in a bid to halt the spread of the virus, which has claimed dozens of lives in the capital.

Jackman vowed to unveil the film for Mexican fans as soon as possible - and now he is set to deliver on his promise to give the country a much-needed boost with a special screening later this month.

He writes on his Twitter.com page: "My thoughts and prayers have been with all of those that have suffered directly or indirectly from the swine flu in Mexico.

"I will bring Wolverine to Mexico City on May 26 to provide a moment of fun, escapism, and a treat for some of the loyal fans of the comic."
