X 戰警：金鋼狼
X-Men Origins: Wolverine

context: zh_tw: 蓋文・胡德在 2007 年 7 月宣佈選定為本作導演，預定 2008 年發行。早先，《X 戰警》和《X 戰警 2》導演布萊恩・辛格和《X 戰警：最後戰役》導演布萊特・瑞納（Brett Ratner）有意回鍋執導系列續集，其他導演亞歷山大・阿加（Alexandre Aja）和連恩・懷斯曼也充滿興趣，曾爭取拍攝的查克・史奈德（Zack Snyder）最後也放下這部影片，轉而執導《守護者》。休・傑克曼在電影《黑幫暴徒》（Tsotsi）中看見類似羅根和要角之間的關係，非漫畫書迷的導演葛文・胡德解釋，他「意識到金鋼狼角色，事實上我認為他吸引人之處，在一些方面是那巨大謊言的人生，充滿很多他所厭惡或喜歡的人，並經常與他自己內心的純淨戰爭」。導演認為電影主旨集中於金鋼狼的內在衝突，著重在他的野性和人性之間掙扎。葛文・胡德喜愛前幾部電影，但下決心將本片打造一種不同的感受。二十世紀福斯 10 月宣佈 2009 年 5 月 1 日發行首映 X 戰警前傳。
en: David Benioff, a comic book fan, pursued the project for almost three years before he was hired to write the script in October 2004. In preparing to write the script, he reread Barry Windsor-Smith's "Weapon X" story, as well as Chris Claremont and Frank Miller's 1982 limited series on the character (his favorite storyline). Also serving as inspiration was the 2001 limited series Origin, which reveals Wolverine's life before Weapon X. Jackman collaborated on the script, which he wanted to be more of a character piece compared with the previous X-Men films. Skip Woods, who had written Hitman for Fox, was later hired to revise and rewrite Benioff's script. Benioff had aimed for a "darker and a bit more brutal" story, writing it with an R rating in mind, although he acknowledged the film's final tone would rest with the producers and director.Deadpool had been developed for his own film by Reynolds and David S. Goyer at New Line Cinema in 2003, but the project fell apart as they focused on Blade: Trinity and an aborted spin-off. Benioff wrote the character into the script in a manner Jackman described as fun, but would also deviate from some of his traits. Similarly, Gambit was a character who the filmmakers had tried to put in the previous X-Men films. Jackman liked Gambit because he is a "loose cannon" like Wolverine, stating their relationship echoes that of Wolverine and Pyro in the original trilogy. David Ayer contributed to the script. Benioff finished his draft in October 2006 and Jackman stated there would be a year before shooting, as he was scheduled to start filming Australia during 2007. Before the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike began, James Vanderbilt and Scott Silver were hired for a last-minute rewrite.Gavin Hood was announced as director of the project in July 2007 for a 2008 release. Previously, X-Men and X2 director Bryan Singer and X-Men: The Last Stand director Brett Ratner were interested in returning to the franchise, while Alexandre Aja and Len Wiseman also wanted the job. Zack Snyder, who was approached for The Last Stand, turned down this film because he was directing Watchmen. Jackman saw parallels between Logan and the main character in Hood's previous film Tsotsi. Hood explained that while he was not a comic book fan, he "realized that the character of Wolverine, I think his great appeal lies in the fact that he's someone who in some ways, is filled with a great deal of self-loathing by his own nature and he's constantly at war with his own nature". The director described the film's themes as focusing on Wolverine's inner struggle between his animalistic savagery and noble human qualities. Hood enjoyed the previous films, but set out to give the spin-off a different feel. Hood also suggested to make the implied blood relation of Wolverine and Sabretooth into them explicitly being half brothers, as it would help "build up the emotional power of the film". In October, Fox announced a May 1, 2009, release date and the X-Men Origins prefix.
