Information continues to trickle out about the newly christened Logan, known previously as Wolverine 3. The latest teases a new location, and Logan himself it's in pretty rough shape.

Wolverine star Hugh Jackman shared a new image from the set of the anticipated film, a decrypt old Smelting Plant tower that is seen laying on its side. The tower also has some text on the side, but it's hard to make out what it says.

It seems odd that Jackman would share the image without some sort of significance to the plot. Now that X-23 is likely to be a part of the film, perhaps this is the site where Laura meets Logan for the first time? Of course, it could just be an old plant, but where's the fun in speculating that, so let's go with the X-23 theory.

While the name is simply Logan, the base of the film seems to originate from the Old Man Logan storyline seen in the comics. The film is set in 2024, and Logan along with the mutant Caliban care for a Charles Xavier who is a shell of his former self.

It will be interesting to see how director James Mangold frames the world, as a big part of what made the original so fascinating was its look at the world without superheroes. Led by the Red Skull, the villains of the Marvel universe all joined up to take down the heroes, and only a few of them remained, including Hawkeye, Emma Frost, and Logan.

Logan hits theaters on March 3, 2017.
