Wolverine director found?

395px-wolverine_origins1.jpgIf they want Wolverine out by next year, then 20th Century Fox are going to have to get a move on with this thing.. it's June 07 already and a director hasn't been found. Well maybe until today... IESB are reporting that Disturbia helmer D.J. Caruso has been offered the gig of directing Wolverine. Caruso's last film, the unofficial Rear Window remake went down well not just with critics but audiences too and it has become one of the surprise hits of the year. Caruso is currently in talks with Dreamworks on an unnamed project, so if he can't do Wolverine (which if he has any % of comic geek in him, he no doubt will do it) their back up plan is to go with Len Wiseman!!!! Yes the guy who is helming the new Die Hard movie. Like I say if they are serious about making this thing, then it's going to have to begin production soon. Personally, I would have gone for a thriller director for this project which should be dark and gritty as hell. Just don't go with Wiseman.
