The long awaited follow-up to X-Men Origins: Wolverine has a release date. The Wolverine will open in theaters July 23, 203, opposite Lionsgate's Dirty Dancing remake and Disney's Phineas and Ferb movie. Tom Cruise's sci-fi flick, currently untitled but formerly known as Horizons and Oblivion, will open the week before, and assuming it has a title and a plot to speak of, it stands as the only movie that might give Wolvie a run for his money at the box office.

Hugh Jackman is returning as Wolverine for the movie, which will be set in Japan and is set to be directed by James Mangold.
