I found this to be very interesting news. Gavin Hood is a foriegn and short film director. He specializes in African films and culture. I'm not sure how it came down to picking him to direct "Wolverine", the X-Men spinoff film (obviously), but it's certianly interesting. Jackman is quite confident in his abilites and I have no doubt he's a fine director, but the choice seems very odd. Hopfully the director won't be boged down by the mainstream and gets to do what he wants.
Filming starts in November and the film is slated for a 2008 release date. The movie will cover Wolverine's origin and the "Weapon X" concept.
