Earlier this week Warner Bros. decided to offer up a treat by making the WonderCon exclusive trailer for Pacific Rim available to all online, and now 20th Century Fox has followed suit by giving us a new look The Wolverine courtesy of the official CinemaCon trailer. Packed into its one minute running time is plenty of new footage, including a brief glimpse at Hugh Jackman's Logan going up against the (absolutely giant) Silver Samurai, played by Will Yun Lee (Total Recall):
"Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before."
