Actor Boyd Holbrook (Netflix's Narcos, Gone Girl) has reportedly been cast as the main villain in Wolverine 3.

According to Variety, Holbrook "has signed on to star as the chief of security for a global corporation pursuing [Hugh] Jackman’s Wolverine."

The trade also confirms that Sir Patrick Stewart will reprise his role as Professor X in the film, which will be Jackman's final time donning the claws.

The Wolverine's James Mangold directs from a script by David James Kelly.

Filming begins in May for a March 3, 2017 release.
