Fans always knew this X-Men movie was going to be different with its R-rated certificate, but now we’ve had our first full taster.
Mangold leaked page two of the official script on his Twitter account this afternoon, with the film's title, Logan, in big letters across the page.
The director also tweeted the first official poster for Logan, featuring a child's hand (most likely X-23) holding Wolverine's hand with his claws out.
One of the first words Wolverine says in script is ‘F***.’
Next comes confirmation of the heavy violence not previously seen in X-Men movies.

The screenplay notes read: “Now might be a good time to talk about the ‘fights’ described in the next 100 or so pages.
“Basically, if you’re on the make for a hyper choreographed, gravity defying, city-block destroying, CG f***athon, this ain’t your movie.”
“In this flick, people will get hurt or killed when s*** falls on them.
“They will get just as hurt or just as killed if the get hit with something big and heavy like, say, a car.
“Should anyone in its story have the misfortune to fall off a roof or out a window, they won’t bounce. They will die.”

The Tarantino-esque narration is followed by a shocking description of The Wolverine himself.
It continues: “As for our hero, well, he’s older now and it’s clear his abilities aren’t what they once were.
“He’s fading on the inside and his diminished healing factor keeps him in a constant state of chronic pain - hence booze as a painkiller.
“So by all means, go ahead and worry about him.”
Wolverine 3 recently had a casting call for prostitutes and drug-dealers.
This is followed by a brutal fight between Wolverine and some Mexican thugs called The Bangers.
Logan is described as being intoxicated during the fight and gets hit with “knives and guns and fists and a Makita drill.”
The R-rated script was penned by Michael Green who is now working on Alien: Covenant and Blade Runner 2.
Wolverine 3 is released in UK cinemas March 2, 2017.
