Logan (aka Wolverine 3) is about to slash its way into theaters, bringing us Hugh Jackman's final performance as Wolverine - and Patrick Stewart's final performance as X-Men founder, Charles Xavier.
While fans are excited for the R-Rated action and violence that Logan will bring, it's also bittersweet to know that we're coming to the end of an era. Now EW, is saying goodbye to Jackman in proper fashion - with a cover spread that honor's the actor's legacy as the Wolverine character. You can see the full cover image in our photo gallery above!
The cover image was accompanied by a Tweet designed to give X-Men movie fans a nostalgic "from then to now," feeling. Check that out below!
Logan takes place in the year 2029, where mutant births have become extremely rare. The defenders of mutant kind, the X-Men, are long gone, and the only remains of them are an old and struggling Charles Xavier and a weary Logan. Logan's vaunted healing factor has slowed, and at times doesn't seem to work at all. When a young mutant needs his help, Logan has to unsheathe his claws once more. His job isn't over yet.
Logan stars Hugh Jackman (Logan), Boyd Holbrook (Donald Pierce), Patrick Stewart (Charles Xavier), Dafne Keen (Laura Kinney/X-23), Doris Morgado (Maria), Stephen Merchant (Caliban), Elizabeth Rodriguez (Gabriela), and Richard E. Grant (Dr. Zander Rice). James Mangold is directing and helped on the screenplay along with Scott Frank and Michael Green.
