Gavin Hood, successful director of the foreign language film Tsotsi, is set to direct Wolverine. The film will focus on the background of everyone?s favorite X-Man, played by Hugh Jackman. It is being penned by screenwriter David Benioff, who also wrote Troy, so he may be able to pay a mindful eye to the sprawling action that is bound to take place. With the director and writer set, it seems that they are eyeing a fall of 2008 release date.
