According to one source, the studio has the "Wolverine" director’s job down to a lead candidate … and a backup choice.
IESB.net informs us that "Disturbia" director D.J. Caruso is in the running for the "Wolverine" gig. His other films include "Two for the Money," "Taking Lives," and "The Salton Sea." But it looks like Mr. Caruso might have a different job lined up at DreamWorks, so Fox’s second option would be…
Len Wiseman, director of both "Underworld" movies and this summer’s "Live Free or Die Hard." Then again, Wiseman might be their first choice of "DH4" is a huge hit. How nice.
We do know that screenwriter David Benioff and leading man Hugh Jackman are on board. They just need a director.
