Thug Has Hugh Jackman Flat On His Back In New Set Photo From THE WOLVERINE
A brief description and photograph of a scene that was filmed recently for James Mangold's The Wolverine that involved Hugh Jackman and a Japanese thug. Also a new interview with Hugh and his wife that has a snippet of behind-the-scenes footage with ninjas.
Daily Telegraph was able to snag an interesting photo from the set of The Wolverine, Friday on a back street in Surry Hills. It features, star Hugh Jackman lying on his back while a Japanese gangster points a gun at him. The set was constructed on Brisbane St., transformed to look like a strip in Japan, with Japanese signage and vehicles scattered throughout.
A stunt double was also seen, but no photographed, leaping through the air. Filming of James Mangold's The Wolverine is expected to wrap by the end of the month.
