    Darren Aronofsky No Longer Directing The Wolverine

    Wow, isn't this movie out next year? Not good.

    Darren Aronofsky and Twentieth Century Fox today issued the following statements about the director’s involvement in the movie, The Wolverine:

    Stated Aronofsky: "As I talked more about the film with my collaborators at Fox, it became clear that the production of ‘The Wolverine’ would keep me out of the country for almost a year. I was not comfortable being away from my family for that length of time. I am sad that I won't be able to see the project through, as it is a terrific script and I was very much looking forward to working with my friend, Hugh Jackman, again."

    Stated Twentieth Century Fox: "While we are of course disappointed that Darren can’t do ‘The Wolverine’, we also understand and respect his reasons. Having done both ‘The Wrestler’ and ‘Black Swan’ with Darren, we know he is an extraordinary talent and we look forward to working with him on other projects in the future. Hugh Jackman and Fox both remain fully committed to making ‘The Wolverine’. We will regroup and move forward aggressively."

    Didn't he also get signed and drop out of a Batman movie - before Nolan came on - or something?

      Eh... I'm not buying that as the reason why he "left". Sounds like he was dropped. He can always have his family visit him while he's in production. That makes no sense.

        Yes, Affronsky was devoloping "Batman: Year One" at one point.

            Yeah - but this was this based on the Frank Miller mini-series, right? If they were planing on filming in Japan I could see recent events being a factor.

              No, he never actually got signed. Aronofsky and Frank Miller turned in an absolutely HORRIBLE Script for Batman:Year One....and WB went with Nolan & Goyer's Script instead.
