December 4, 2007 - David Benioff, the screenwriter of the forthcoming X-Men Origins: Wolverine, spoke briefly about the Fox-Marvel spin-off film while promoting his new release, The Kite Runner.
Benioff confirmed that Silver Fox will indeed be Wolverine's love interest in the Gavin Hood-directed movie. "Yeah, Silver Fox is one of the big ones; they'll be announcing the casting on that one in the next couple weeks," the scribe told JewReview.net. "And Stryker is in it. But I signed some massive contract at Fox that I'm not allowed to say, so I better shut-up now."
Benioff said the plot will borrow from a specific comic book storyline but wouldn't divulge much more than that. "I think I'm not allowed to say, but it is a prequel and it's an origin, but they don't want me to talk about the specific comic book. The answer is 'yes, there is' but they told me not to say."
