As The Wolverine inches closer to its July 26 release date, 20th Century Fox is pulling out some digital tricks to keep fans pumped for the impending sixth film in the X-Men franchise.
The studio on Monday unleashed a video featuring the bullet-train scene that appeared briefly in The Wolverine trailer. The new clip (above) shows Wolverine fighting Yakuza on a train moving 300 miles per hour across Japan. The movie stars Hugh Jackman as the scruffy hero with regenerative abilities. The plot focuses on Wolverine's distress over his immortality.
In addition to the fresh footage, 20th Century Fox told Mashable it will live stream the red carpet arrivals during the intimate July 16 premiere in London. The embeddable stream will be available to watch on Livestream as well as The Wolverine and X-Men Facebook pages. The film's stars, director and producer will begin arriving at 1 p.m. EST (6 p.m. BST).
Two days later, on July 18, MSN will host a Skype chat with Jackman and director James Mangold. Fans are encouraged to apply to ask questions to them directly, and MSN will pick some to ask Jackman and Mangold their questions face-to-face via Skype.
X-Men enthusiasts have until July 11 to tell MSN (at [email protected]) why they are the biggest Wolverine fan. Non-winners can still ask questions during the chat using #msnwolverine. The chat will start at 11:05 a.m. EST (4:05 p.m. BST).
