http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/11/29/Maggie-Q-Joins-The-Cast-Of-WOLVERINE.aspx News recently hit the web that lovely Hawaiian actress Maggie Q (LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD) would be joining the cast of WOLVERINE, the X-MEN prequel movie about the origins of Marvel Comics’ favorite mutant. Maggie Q is rumored to be playing the role of Silver Fox, a love interest from Wolverine’s past. As the comic book lore goes, for a long time Wolverine believed Fox, his lover, to have been slain by his nemesis, Sabertooth; however this was just one of many false memories, implanted in Wolvy’s mind by the Weapon X program which created him. In reality, Silver Fox was a famed assassin, part of the Weapon X strike team alongside Wolverine in his years before the X-men. Early rumors indicate that the film version of WOLVERINE will loosely adhere to this same storyline. As of now WOLVERINE is aiming to start production next year (barring in delays caused by the WGA strike,) for a summer 2009 release. It will star Hugh Jackman, and be directed by Gavin Hood (RENDITION). en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/11/29/Maggie-Q-Joins-The-Cast-Of-WOLVERINE.aspx 77 60
