The next Wolverine movie is already being planned.

Christopher McQuarrie has signed on to write the script for the sequel. McQuarrie won an Academy Award for The Usual Suspects and contributed to the first X-Men installment.

Hugh Jackman, of course, will star again as Logan/Wolverine. Last week, he hinted that the movie's storyline will take its cue from the early 1980s miniseries, which is set in Japan and features Wolverine dealing with annoying, dangerous ninjas.
