Writer McQuarrie Tapped For 'Wolverine' Sequel
Reported by Outsiders - 10:38 AM 2009.08.14


Christopher McQuarrie has signed on to write the script for the "Wolverine" sequel, in which Hugh Jackman will return as the Marvel Comics character, Wolverine.

The 20th Century Fox movie's story line will take its cue from the early 1980s Chris Claremont/Frank Miller miniseries, which is set in Japan and features Wolverine dealing with ninjas as he struggles to decide whether to follow his animal killer instincts or live under a samurai's code of honor and respect.

The studio put a sequel in development after "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" carved up almost $180 million at the domestic box office and $363 million worldwide.

McQuarrie is not unfamiliar with the character. The screenwriter, who won an Oscar for "The Usual Suspects," reteamed with that film's director, Bryan Singer, to write "X-Men." McQuarrie could have received a credit, but he voluntarily took his name off the movie when the final version was more in line with David Hayter's script than his.
