Could Duncan Jones be taking over for Darren Aronofsky and directing Wolverine?

Perhaps, according to The Wrap:

Fox may have found the director to tame “The Wolverine.”

Duncan Jones, who directed this year’s “Source Code” -- and is David Bowie’s son -- is looking at the job.

It’s all very early, but the “Moon” director’s name has been popping up as a potential “Wolverine” director quite a bit lately. And he told IGN that he might do it.

“Who knows what’ll be coming up next,” he said. “I have a lot of meetings and catching-up to do when I get back to L.A.”

He confirmed that one of those meetings is with Fox, where he’ll talk about “The Wolverine.”

Darren Aronofsky was originally attached to direct, but he pulled out in March because of scheduling issues.Then, the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, where the movie was set to shoot, and the film was put on hold.

In Christopher McQuarrie's screenplay, Wolverine goes to Japan to learn from a Samurai master.

Why is Duncan Jones having trouble getting his next sci-fi film made?

From indieWire:

With his sophomore effort “Source Code” set to open Friday, director Duncan Jones is in the midst of some serious press promotion rounds. The filmmaker is currently traveling around the country to introduce advanced screenings of the sci-fi actioneer everywhere from SXSW (where we first caught the film) to last Friday at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens. After the screening, Jones was asked about the status of his long gestating film “Mute,” which was recently announced to be made into a graphic novel. Jones gave a variation on the same answer he’s been giving recently, but explained exactly why his future noir is a very difficult film to find financing for, even getting into a few minor spoilers, but as our subhead suggests, the title of the film—and the semi-known logline—does tend to give things away a bit.
