Setting this story in Japan, a land that has become known for its appreciation of love and honor is an interesting decision on the part of screenwriters Mark Bomback ( Unstoppable) and Scott Frank ( Out of Sight). As a plot emerges to kill Yashida’s granddaughter Mariko (Tao Okamoto), Wolverine gets into the action to protect her but finds his regeneration is suddenly not working imperling his life while trying to protect an innocent woman with whom he may be destined to fall in love. Doubting the idea is possible, Logan retires before Yashida dies in the night, making him wonder if what Yashida offered was possible. On his deathbed, Yashida tells Logan that he can stop his regenerative capabilities, making it possible that Wolverine could be killed. Logan had shielded Yashida from the deadly nuclear that destroyed Nagasaki during World War II, giving the future technological giant an opportunity to one day repay his debt. A man from his past (Haruhiko Yamanouchi) sends a young prescient mutant (Rila Fukushima) to bring him to Tokyo where he hopes to offer Logan the opportunity to die with honor after suffering for so long.

Still reeling from the betrayal of his personal code of ethics, Logan has gone into hiding in the Canadian wilderness.
The Wolverine sets out to prove that, in the right hands, these things can be done exceptionally well.Īt the end of X-Men: The Last Stand, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) must slay his lover Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) to prevent her from going nuclear as her villainous alter-ego The Phoenix. Critical and audience disdain for X-Men Origins: Wolverine put into doubt any potential for individual-hero spin-offs of the vaunted X-Men franchise.
