New animated poster for James Mangold's upcoming superhero movie

Hugh Jackman is completely capable of singing in the rain, but a new motion poster for "The Wolverine" suggests he'll be sword battling in it this summer instead.

Directed by James Mangold, the angry "X-Men" character's next big-screen adventure will be set in Japan where he'll train to be a samurai warrior.
