A Tale From The Set Of WolverineBy Emily McDonald: 2008-11-25 13:55:39
You may not know who he is, but Jeff Katz has got something to say about the upcoming X-Men Origins: Wolverine film. The former Fox exec visited the set and has brought back reports of awesomeness. He says “I think it delivers, so I’m not particularly worried about that.”Jeff Katz is a comic book writer (Booster Gold) and a former executive at 20th Century Fox. Katz was a producer on the movie, but has since left the film to produce his yet to be announced project. He has been a producer on such films as Shoot ‘Em Up and Snakes on a Plane. Although he has not been integrally involved in the Wolverine film for a few months, he’s a big enough comic book fan that he felt the need to spill to MTV about the movie. He says: “I’m of the belief that you can boil down these characters to a couple of key words, phrases or images that sum up the tone and tenor of what they should be. And to me and [Hugh] Jackman, our mantra for Wolverine has really been one term: ‘bad-ass.’ As long as Wolverine is consistently bad-ass, people are generally going to go with you. That’s what they want from that character.” With claws and bones of steel I should hope that a character comes off as being “badass!” Katz declares that the movie follows suit. He claims that the film is much grimmer than the other X-Men films. “If you saw that Comic-Con trailer, that bit at the end where he tells [Schreiber] he’s going to ‘cut his goddamn head off,’ that is very much Logan’s tone throughout the movie. At the end of the day, it’s a more personal X-Men movie. It’s a darker X-Men movie.” It sounds like a better X-Men Movie.
