Plot
After serving in World War 2, James Howlett (James McAvoy) and his brother Victor Creed (Joel Edgerton) were approached by a mysterious man named William Stryker (Timothy Olyphant) who tells the brothers that they are two of the few people in the world who have a mutant-gene in their blood and if they join him, he can expand the gene to give them extraordinary abilities.

Months later, James and Victor have joined the Weapon-X Program, taken on the aliases “Wolverine” and “Sabertooth” respectively, and now work on a strike force alongside fellow mutants Lady Deathstrike (Lichen Dachman), Omega Red (Luke Hemsworth), and Agent Zero (Josh Segarra), but James soon discovers that Stryker has much more sinister plans for the mutants than they thought, as he plans to use them as weapons for his own person gain.

Many years later, in 1991, James’ memory of his dark past has almost completely faded. Now going by the name Logan, he seems to have finally settled down and found love with Kayla Silverfox (Freida Pinto). But Logan’s peaceful life is completely shattered when the remaining members of Task-Force X alongside their new recruit Deadpool (Lakeith Stanfield) are sent to bring The Wolverine in at any cost. Victor Creed viscously murders Kayla in front of Logan’s eyes.

The Wolverine enters a stage of pure rage and animal instincts as his past all flows back to him and his mutant abilities take over. Logan shreds through his former team, killing Agent Zero and Omega Red in the process. Lady Deathstrike and Deadpool quickly flee the scene, leaving only Wolverine and Sabertooth to battle it out. The brothers brutally clash until Logan gets the upper hand, receiving a chance to end his brother once and for all. But a flash of humanity shines in the back of Logan’s head and he retracts his metal claws. Logan runs far away from his life and doesn’t look back.

In a post credits scene, In the late 90’s, Logan is living from place to place, avoiding large cities and conflict with other people. One day, he stops for a drink at a small bar in Canada where he is approached by a man in a wheelchair. The man introduces himself as Charles Xavier (Giancarlo Esposito) and tells Logan that he’s a mutant just like him and offers to help him control his abilities. Logan turns down the professor’s offer but is given a business card in case he changes his mind.
