Wolverine 3 Title Revealed?

I've been trying to keep everyone in the loop when it comes to information regarding the upcoming movie Wolverine 3.  The rumors surrounding the film have been that it will be some sort of take on Marvel's Old Man Logan storyline from their comic books.  Hugh Jackman himself has alluded to the fact that the movie was going to be loosely based on that story.  Now, according to GameZone, their sources are telling them that the title for the film seems to have it going in a different direction.  They even admit something along the lines of, "I know what your thinking when you hear the words 'reliable sources', but these are actually reliable sources," so for them to actually say this, it tells me that they are pretty confident that this is the real deal.  Want to know what the title is going to be?  If you do, keep reading, if you don't want to know, turn back now.

The title (again, according to GameZone) for the upcoming movie is going to be Weapon X.  This is a completely different story than the Old Man Logan story that they were hinting at using.  Old Man Logan takes place in a dystopian world after the fall of the heroes, while Weapon X focused on Logan being the tenth test subject at having his bones coated with adamantium in order to create the perfect weapon.  I know, that's just the short version.  The storyline ran in "Marvel Comics Presents Weapon X" and to be honest, there really wasn't very much dialogue.  It seems unlikely that this is what the movie is going to be about.  It does seem to be taking place in the future, though.  A few set pictures have leaked online showing Hugh Jackman with graying hair.  Since this is going to be the final Wolverine movie in the trilogy (as well as Jackman's last time playing the character) chances are that the movie is going to have Logan go up against the organization that created him and shut it down for good.  This would also be a good way to introduce X-23, who has been rumored to be appearing in the movie as well.

Everything that we thought we knew involving the movie seems to be up in the air now, which is not necessarily a bad thing.  It's nice to have surprises thrown at us every once in a while.  If this is truly going to be the title of the movie, we'll find out during San Diego Comic Con.  That's when 20th Century Fox will be making the official announcement as to what the title is going to be.

Wolverine 3 (possibly Weapon X) will hit theaters March 3, 2017.
