Said to be Hugh Jackman’s final portrayal of the iconic steely clawed mutant character, Logan brings viewers to the year 2029 when mutant population has significan­tly decreased and an aging Logan is now working as a chauffeur to get by while he’s caring for Professor X. Logan’s “retirement” is inter- rupted when he drives for a young mutant girl, young X-23, who mirrors his powers. All of a sudden, Logan is faced with a choice to utilize what remains of powers to protect the girl from dark forces. Directed by James Mangold,

Logan also stars Patrick Stewart reprising his role as Professor X alongside Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant, and Dafne Keen.

Jackman, who first played Wolverine/Logan 18 years ago, has appeared in the X-Men series and stand-alone

Wolverine films since 1999.
