sequel, my anticipation for it has skyrocketed. The first film was kindof a disaster that had no idea where it wanted to go, but the follow-up has sounded great almost from the word "Go". The classic Claremont/Miller tale of Wolvie's journey to Japan is a perfect story to adapt, and if you've already read it(as I have many times) then you probably already know the characters involved. But if you don't, Pajiba has(or had, as the studio made them take it down) a list of the film's characters along with minor descriptions of each. Since they were taken down, I got this from our friends over at Bleeding Cool. Thanks!Zen: A Japanese man “who arranges for Logan’s release” from a Candian prison and “offers to answer questions about his origin if he’ll accompany him to Tokyo”.
Shingen: Shingen’s father was the master of The Hand, an order of ninja. Instead of allowing his son to take leadership of the order, Shingen’s father killed himself and left the Hand without a master.
Kenuichio: Shingen’s illegitimate son, but not recognised as an heir. An expert Samurai, he will adopt his “Silver Samurai” guise in the movie and attack Logan “several times”.
Mariko: Shingen’s daughter, and Logan’s chief love interest.
Yukio: Logan’s bodyguard and lust interest.
Frank Sinatra: “Japan’s answer to Frank Sinatra. A Yakuza higher-up who provides Logan with information”.
