Wolverine 3 adds Eriq Lasalle, Elise Neal to cast roster

Production on Wolverine 3 is gathering steam now, and as that happens we get more cast announcements. The most recent additions are Eriq Lasalle, probably best known as Peter Benton in ER, and Elise Neal (Scream 2).

The pair join the already announced Stephen Merchant, Patrick Stewart and Boyd Holbrook in the film, which will be directed by James Mangold and that’s about all we have at present. Plot and character details are being kept very hush hush, except for presumably Patrick Stewart will be reprising his role as Professor Charles Xavier. It’s rumoured that the plot will be based on the Old Man Logan comic storyline, but nothing is yet confirmed. This would make sense, given previous reports that the studio is aiming for an R-rated release and Old Man Logan’s content is especially brutal in places.

Wolverine 3 is slated for a March 2017 release, so hopefully as production pushes on we will start getting more information through. In the meantime, any guesses as to which characters these new additions to the cast might be playing? Give us your best speculation in the comments.
