Logan - 羅根
Logan (羅根) is an 2017 film. The movie stars Hugh Jackman and Dafne Keen. The supporting cast include Patrick Stewart, Boyd Holbrook, and Stephen Merchant.
In the near, but distant future of 2029, Logan is working as a limo driver. When a young X23 type girl shows up, they head on a adventurous road trip. At the end of this road trip, will they get to paradise? Along the way, Logan must contend with the organization that developed X23 as they aim to get her back. But wait, Logan's not his old usual self.
Apparently, Hugh Jackman announced that this will be his last turn as the venerable Wolverine. Hugh Jackman has played Wolverine/Logan since the first X-Men movie. It was also based on the Old Man Logan version.
I liked the movie a lot. I liked the 2029 timeline. Still the future, but not far enough that the tech still looks familiar. I also liked how they handled Professor X and the future's bleak take for the mutants. It's too bad this will be Jackman's final time as Wolverine.
