Wolverine will be "pursued by dark forces" according to Logan synopsis

As excitement ramps up for the next Wolverine instalment, Logan, the man himself - well, actor Hugh Jackman anyway - has released a semi-official synopsis giving us clues on what we can expect from the new movie.

In a Twitter tease, Jackman’s image says: "In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hideout on the Mexican border. But Logan’s attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are up-ended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces."

Under the image, Jackman wrote just one word: “official”. Which makes it, well, official, I guess.

And that’s not all: Jackman’s also drip-fed a selection of new movie photos, too.

Directed by James Mangold and starring Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, and Boyd Holbrook, Richard E. Grant, and Elizabeth Rodriguez, Logan will be released in cinemas on March 3, 2017.
