/Film has gotten their hands on some images of Liev Schreiber playing Sabretooth in the new X-Men spin-off, X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Check out an image of Schreiber as Sabretooth here at right and visit JustJared for a bunch more of these spy photos.
For comparison, here’s an image of Sabretooth from X-Men when he was played by Tyler Mane.
I’m not sure if they’re adding all the fur later or if they’re doing a more militant looking Sabretooth, but it’s still always fun to see in-development pictures!
What does everyone think of this project so far?
Wolverine is slated for delivery on May 1, 2009. It stars Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Liev Schreiber as Sabertooth, Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, and Taylor Kitsch as Gambit. Lord of the Rings and Lost star Dominic Monaghan also joined the cast as Barnell Bohusk aka Beak.
For two new photos of Jackman as Wolverine in the upcoming film, check out Marvel.com.
That is a very interesting choice to play him.

Gotta say… I’m admittedly stoked beyond reason that Ryan Reynolds is playing Deadpool, so I’m viewing this whole project through rose-tinted glasses.
I’m perfectly okay with these photos, just because I know that these are essentially images of Sabertooth “The Early Years” and there’s every chance for him to grow more animalistic later on.
Like I said… Rose-tinted.
Sure can’t wait to see the first Deadpool pics, though! =D
