The man behind the ill-fated Swordfish and the currently in production Hitman, Skip Woods, has been drafted to revise the script originally written by David Benioff. Apparently big fans of his work on the current Hitman script, they’ve asked Woods to do "more than a polish" the existing screenplay.

Scheduled to begin filming in Australia this November for a 2008 release, the Gavin Hood directed movie is set to look at Logan’s (Wolverine’s real name) life prior to joining the X-Men. Slated to involve characters such as Victor Creed (AKA Sabretooth), William Stryker, The Blob and John Wraith, and all tying around the Weapon-X program.
