If you haven't watched the first full trailer for Logan, then it's time you set your priorities straight. The much-anticipated video was released earlier today, and it is living up to everyone's expectations. The touching, vivid trailer has Wolverine fans flocking to their computers, and someone has since taken the footage and redone it in black and white to make you feel all the feels.

The filtered trailer was posted to Youtube earlier today by a fan account on Youtube. The footage used is of that seen in the green-band trailer for Logan. As fans can see, the black and white filter perfectly fits the emotional video. Characters like Wolverine, Professor X, and X-23 take on an old-fashioned aesthetic after being stripped of color. And, of course, the grainy film fits the trailer's background music as Johnny Cash's "Hurt" can be heard crooning over the video.

Naturally, this altered trailer is just one of many that will surely show up in the coming days. Fans have been eager to see footage from Logan since the film was announced, and the video proves that Hugh Jackman's final Wolverine role will leave fans as stoked as they are sad.

If you haven't kept up with Logan, the third Wolverine film takes place in a future where mutants are no longer being born as frequently as they were. Many well-known mutants like the X-Men are gone and only Logan remains as he cares for an aging Professor X. As both their powers begin to fade with age, the former X-Men are embroiled in a deadly plot b a corporation known as Transgien who is transforming mutant children into living weapons - and it's through their organization that Wolverine will meet a young mutant girl who's "much like" himself.

Comic book readers should be very familiar with this mysterious girl already. The mutant is known as X-23 or Laura Kinney, and she is cloned from Wolverine's DNA. As such, she manifests a similar mutation and can unsheath two claws from her wrists and single ones from her feet. The trained soldier is more lethal than she looks. In the comics, her relationship with Wolverine has been a volatile one, and Logan looks like it will showcase the pair's animosity and warm-heartedness alike.

Earlier this week, a possible synopsis for Logan appeared on IMDB that teases fans with a few big reveals. You can check out the description below:

"Set in the future of 2024, Logan and Professor Charles Xavier must cope with the loss of the X-Men when a corporation lead by Nathaniel Essex is destroying the world leaving it to destruction, with Logan's healing abilities slowly fading away and Xavier's Alzheimer's forcing him to forget. Logan must defeat Nathaniel Essex with the help of a young girl named Laura Kinney, a female clone of Wolverine."

Logan hits theaters on March 3, 2017, followed by Deadpool 2 on January 12, 2018. Movie versions of Gambit, New Mutants, and X-Force are being developed.
