McQuarrie was hired to write a screenplay for The Wolverine in August 2009. In October 2010, Darren Aronofsky was hired to direct the film.

Bomback was then hired to rewrite the screenplay in September 2011. The supporting characters were cast in July 2012 with principal photography beginning at the end of the month in New South Wales before moving to Tokyo in August 2012 and back to New South Wales in October 2012. The film was converted to 3D in post-production.The Wolverine was released on July 24, 2013 in various international markets; and was released on July 25, 2013 in Australia, and on July 26, 2013 in the United States.
In the present day, Logan lives as a hermit in the Yukon, tormented by hallucinations of Jean Grey, whom he was forced to kill in X-Men: The Last Stand. He is located by Yukio,
a mutant with the precognitive ability to foresee people's deaths,
on-behalf of Yashida, now the CEO of a technology corporation. Yashida,
who is dying of cancer, wants Logan to accompany Yukio to Japan so that
he may repay his life debt.
In Tokyo, Logan meets Yashida's son, Shingen, and granddaughter, Mariko. There, Yashida offers to transfer Logan's healing abilities
into his own body, thus saving Yashida's life and alleviating Logan of
his immortality, which Logan views as a curse. Logan refuses and
prepares to leave the following day. That night, Yashida's doctor Viper introduces something into Logan's body, but Logan dismisses it as a dream.
The next morning, Logan is informed that Yashida has died. At the funeral, Yakuza
gangsters attempt to kidnap Mariko, but Logan and Mariko escape
together into the urban sprawl of Tokyo. Logan is shot and his wounds do
not heal as quickly as they should. After fighting off more Yakuza on a
bullet train, Logan and Mariko hide in a local love hotel. Meanwhile, Yashida's bodyguard Kenuichio Harada meets with Viper who, after demonstrating her mutant powers on him, demands he find Logan and Mariko.
