Hugh Jackman has said that there will be more female characters in The Wolverine than was seen in X-Men: Origins: Wolverine.
The Australian actor also revealed that he can't wait to get to Japan to start shooting the sequel.
He told Collider: "This time, more than anything, I think we've really nailed down that character. I think the audience and myself and the writers were like, 'Enough of the [missing] memory'... I think we've explored that a lot.
"Now, it's this great backdrop of Japan, which is going to be fantastic for this character. It's a very rich source material with the comic book. And, there's more ladies in this movie, which is a nice change from the last one. It was very testosterone heavy."
Shooting on The Wolverine is expected to start in March 2012, to enable Jackman to shoot Les Miserables.
The Wolverine is scheduled for release in 2013.
