EMPIRE ranks the top 15 trailers of 2016!- Logan
You could quite conceivably set Johnny Cashs Hurt to some static footage of dried paint and make it seem epic and atmospheric. But that soulful Nine Inch Nails cover has never fitted better than in this astonishing first trailer for Logan which is, lest we forget, the third film in a superhero spin-off franchise plenty of people have been betting against.
What a statement of intent this trailer is, then. Weve seen Hugh Jackmans take on Wolverine for seventeen years, but never like this: bearded, greying, scarred, visibly troubled. Weve never seen Patrick Stewarts Xavier looking so frail or vulnerable, either. Weve never seen such familial tenderness in a series based around as we do with Dafne Keens X-23, her tiny hand gripping Logans huge, bloodied digits.
And, frankly, weve never seen an X-Men movie we wanted to see more.
The trailer does its job handsomely. I would find a way, intones Johnny at the end. Lets hope James Mangold and his team find a way, come March.
Money shot:
Logans bearded profile, silhouetted against a fierce sunlight pouring through a window.
