Marvel today released the solicitation information for the next big X-Event - Divided We Stand. No more X-Men and mutants in chaos! Plus if you look forward far enough you might get a clue or two about who is and isn’t a Skrull.
Take the jump for the complete rundown along with cover images.
Twentieth Century Fox has announced May 1, 2009 will be the release date for X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
The movie will center around Wolverine’s past with Victor Creed and the Weapon X program as well as his interactions with other mutants.
“Wolverine” is expected to feature many other mutants — some new to the film franchise and some from one or more of the three “X-Men” films. Liev Schreiber is reportedly in final talks to take on the role of a younger version of nemesis William Stryker, played by Brian Cox in “X2.”
Wolverine will shoot in Australia, New Zealand, and New Orleans where Wolverine just might encounter Gambit.

Twentieth Century Fox has announced Gavin Hood will be directing the X-Men spin-off movie Wolverine staring Hugh Jackman. The movie begins production this November and is scheduled to debut in 2008.
Hood is the South African director whose 2005 film “Tsotsi” won the foreign film Oscar. He was among several hot young directors vying for “Wolverine” and sources said Fox brass was swayed after viewing his latest film, “Rendition,” the politically charged New Line drama starring Reese Witherspoon, Jake Gyllenhaal, Meryl Streep and Peter Sarsgaard. It opens Oct. 19 and premieres at Toronto.
Wolverine will be an origin story telling how he came into being, and will be diving into Marvel lore and Frank Miller’s Weapon X series for inspiration.
Wolverine is written by David Beniofff, with Hugh Jackman reprising his role as the indestructible mutant.
