Says Deadline, "Clearly, Jackman's priority is his signature razor-clawed X-Men mutant hero. He has been very hands on developing The Wolverine with screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie, and he himself drafted Darren Aronofsky, who exited earlier this month. Jackman and the studio are just getting started on finding a replacement. I've heard names like Duncan Jones, director of the well-reviewed Source Code, and David Slade, the Twilight Saga: Eclipse helmer who was in the mix before Aronofsky got hired. The huntsman role was vacated by Viggo Mortensen...."

If that means that he won't do The Wolverine, that movie is officially doomed.

I think they're saying he might do it before The Wolverine actually starts shooting.

He would make a perfect Huntsman. Please don't tell me Kristen Stewart is cast as Snow White. That's an automatic pass for me.
