<p>While it hasn&#8217;t exactly been a secret that <a href="http://ift.tt/1T14yis">Patrick Stewart was to reprise his role as Professor X</a> in <em>Wolverine 3</em>, his involvement has never been officially confirmed by the filmmakers. New on-set images have now revealed that Stewart will indeed appear alongside Hugh Jackman in the upcoming superhero sequel. Check them out below, via <a href="http://ift.tt/28qeIU9" rel="nofollow">Just Jared</a>:</p>

<p>At San Diego Comic-Con last year, <a href="http://ift.tt/1JXrMX3" rel="nofollow">Jackman hinted strongly that the film would draw from the Old Man Logan line of comic books</a>, a futuristic storyline which sees Wolverine as the world&#8217;s last remaining mutant. Jackman&#8217;s bearded appearance in these new images certainly suggest that we&#8217;re looking at an older version of the clawed fan-favourite.</p>
<p><em>Wolverine 3</em> is directed by James Mangold, who previously helmed 2013&#8217;s<em> The Wolverine</em>, which went on to make more than $400 million worldwide. Unlike its predecessors, <em>Wolverine 3</em> will carry an R certificate. In an interview with <a href="http://ift.tt/1Xh70H5" rel="nofollow">Collider</a> last month, <a href="http://ift.tt/21XBxKh">producer Simon Kinberg described the film as &#8220;a very cool, different film.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a very radical, bold, different Wolverine than you&#8217;ve ever seen in any of these [other] movies,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It takes place in the future, and as you and others have reported, it is an R-rated movie. It&#8217;s violent, it&#8217;s kind of like a western in its tone.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>Wolverine 3</em> hits theaters on March 3, 2017.</p>
