Tuesday, February 17, 2009 at 9:01PM All Three New Fox 'Wolverine' Ads
We're taking another glimpse at X-Men Origins: Wolverine, courtesy of Fox. To recap: Fox didn't make much noise in 2008, so their first massive push of 2009 is Wolverine, and to promote it to different demographics, the studio aired three minute-long promos/commercials/mini-trailers in three of its sister network's big shows.

Tonight's promo (called "Legends") aired during American Idol, and you can't get much bigger than that. And, perhaps fittingly, this is also the best of the three commercials. For the ladies, there's a little Ryan Reynolds, for the action geek, there's a cool stunt involving a helicopter, and for people who like good character actors, there's Danny Huston. Yeah, I know: Not much sizzle to Danny Huston, but he sure is good.
Now, because these ads are supposed to link together, we're showing you the first two again, so you can watch them all in order, the way Stan Lee intended:

All in all, I'd say this was a successful marketing event for Fox, and we've seen a little bit more of what Wolverine has in store for us this summer.
