Wolverine and Professor X Look Intense in New Logan Images

Logan director James Mangold has tweeted some moody new images from the upcoming movie, in which Hugh Jackman will appear as Wolverine for the last time. As well as Jackman, they feature Patrick Stewart and Dafne Keen as Professor X and mutant child X-23 respectively. Check them out below:

Jackman also recently tweeted the movie's official synopsis. It reads: "In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hide out on the Mexican border. But Logan's attempt to hide from the world and his legacy are upended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces."

Logan also stars Stephen Merchant (Portal 2), Doris Morgado (2 Guns), Elizabeth Rodriguez (The Drop), Boyd Holbrook (Narcos), and Richard E. Grant (Dracula).

The first trailer for the movie was released in October--check it out here. The movie carries an R-rating, and this brutal scene from its international trailer suggests that rating is warranted.

A final trailer is expected soon. Mangold recently responded to those asking when it would be revealed. "To all asking directors (like me) to drop a trailer, please know, it's not like we sit on them waiting for best worded tweet to move us," he said. "Directors have influence over many things. Even dates. But the dates chosen for a trailer drop are result of much corporate planning.

"Once these dates are set, there is nothing that is going to make a worldwide distribution machine change course. Even eager fans."

Logan hits theaters on March 3, 2017.
