Shooting on Hugh Jackman’s The Wolverine has been pushed back due to Japan's unpredictable weather.

The latest installment in the X-Men franchise was set to start filming in the country later this year (11), but Deadline.com reports that bosses at Fox were struggling to commit to the location due to "weather-related considerations".

The film will reportedly now be filmed in Canada next spring (12)

It will be the second standalone Wolverine movie after X-Men Origins: Wolverine back in 2009 as Jackman one again reprises the title character.

But we will be seeing the actor back on the big screen later this year when he leads the cast in Real Steel.

He has also completed work on Butter and Movie 43.
