Wolverine Leaked Online

This is no April Fool's joke, kids. Wolverine has leaked! (Fox Images)

Although it's not slated for a April 29th release, reportedly a near DVD-quality version of X-Men Origins: Wolverine appeared on torrenting networks.

Wolverine was supposed to be Fox's first big hit of the summer. But, now the company is scouring the torrents to take down the pirated copies. However, once the movie is out, it's out and this leaked release may affect Wolverine's
opening weekend.

Drew McWeeny at HitFix, who has evidently seen parts of the video file, claims that the copy is “near-finished – marred only by a few unfinished FX shots.” In addition, “there’s no timecode, no watermark – nothing. It’s a clean, perfect copy.”

Do you think Fox will go on damage control? Perhaps they will claim the pirated version is a rough-cut missing key scenes.
