Darren Aronofsky Exits ‘The Wolverine’

The Hollywood Reporter broke this very unfortunate news. Here’s what Aronofsky had to say:
One has to wonder if the recent tragedies in Japan, where the film was set and scheduled to shoot for part of its production, impacted Aronofsky in any way. It goes without saying, of course, that this tragedy is way more important than some little movie, no matter how the two things relate to each other, but the recent natural destruction almost certainly had an adverse affect on what the crew had to do there, maybe adding a considerable about of time to the production.
Is there anyone who is available, and would do it, who could even compare to Aronofsky? One person who was being considered, but lost the job to Aronofsky, David Slade, just recently became unavailable because of Daredevil. So who’s next?
