You might have glimpsed theSuper Bowl spotforLogan(and if you missed it, check it out in our fullSuper Bowl movie trailer rundown), but today’s clip is the first look at a scene fromJames Mangold’s mutant movie. And it’s surprisingly timely. A hero, or heroic actions, are instantly recognizable: standing up for those who are outnumbered, outgunned, or outmatched; putting yourself in harm’s way for the protection of others; and standing up for what’s right when it would be so much easier (and safer) to simply fall in line. Many heroes in today’s superhero movie/TV shows misfire on these simple concepts; Mangold absolutely nails it.
In what will likely beHugh Jackman’s last ride as the heroic Wolverine,Loganlooks to bring the character to a satisfying conclusion (at least until the next post-Jackman iteration). And if this clip is any indication ofLogan’s overall quality and effectiveness, you should be very,veryexcited to view the full, R-rated, two-hour-and-fifteen-minute run when it opens in theaters on March 3rd.

Here’s the official synopsis forLogan:
In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hide out on the Mexican border. But Logan’s attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are up-ended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces.
