Badass X-Men Origins: Wolverine Teaser Poster Revealed!

From: FirstShowing.net
Written by: Alex Billington.

Just days before the Super Bowl, Fox has finally unveiled the first official teaser poster for X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which you can see below. There's not much I need to say, because this looks pretty badass. But then again, it's not that hard to take a photo of Wolverine and throw him on a poster and make him look badass. But this is the kind of poster I'd love to have up on my wall, no matter how good or how bad the movie turns out in the end. Don't forget that there is also a new TV spot for Wolverine that we'll see this Sunday during the Super Bowl, so stay tuned for that as well! Check out the new poster below!


X-Men Origins: Wolverine is directed by South African filmmaker Gavin Hood, of the Oscar winner Tsotsi and Rendition previously. The script was written by veteran screenwriter David Benioff, of 25th Hour, Troy, and The Kite Runner previosuly. The character of Wolverine was first created by Len Wein and John Romita Sr. back in 1974. Fox will debut X-Men Origins: Wolverine in theaters on May 1st, 2009.

Superbowl Movie Trailers Revealed!

From: Cinematical.com

Unlike last year's poor showing, the Hollywood studios are bringing out the big guns for this year's Superbowl. What that means is our first look at Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, as it seems Paramount will be holding out for that Superbowl launch. Other much-anticipated trailers arriving that Sunday include G.I. Joe, Angels and Demons, Monsters vs. Aliens(the 3-D version, which requires special glasses, will air at the end of the second quarter), Land of the Lost and Fast and Furious, with spots for Pixar's Up and X-Men Origins: Wolverine also likely. Damn.

Last year I believe a couple trailers leaked prior the the big game, but all of them were available online immediately afterwards. No word on whether any of these trailers will arrive online beforehand to soak up a little internet spotlight before having to share the main stage on Superbowl Sunday. Additionally, according to Variety, some studios -- like Warner Brothers, Fox and Disney -- still haven't bought air time, but may wait until the last minute to snag a spot at a lower price. Warners, for example, has Watchmen, Terminator: Salvation and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on the agenda, and we'd be surprised if none of those snuck in a little game day treat.

Which trailer are you most excited to see?
