Development

"There are so many areas of that Japanese story, I love the idea of this kind of anarchic character, the outsider, being in this world—I can see it aesthetically, too—full of honor and tradition and customs and someone who's really anti-all of that, and trying to negotiate his way. The idea of the samurai, too—and the tradition there. It's really great. In the comic book, he gets his ass kicked by a couple of samurai—not even mutants. He's shocked by that at first".

—Hugh Jackman

2007年9月，《X战警：金钢狼》的导演加文·胡德表示他猜想会推出一部续集，场景将安排在日本。日本是Chris Claremont and 弗兰克·米勒's 1982 limited series on the character的主题，但并没有出现在《X战警：金钢狼》当中，因为休·杰克曼认为对那部片来说“我们要做的是给出（罗根）是谁并探索他为何变成金钢狼”。杰克曼曾表示那套漫画书是他最喜欢的金钢狼故事。Of the Japanese arc，杰克曼也说："I won't lie to you, I have been talking to writers... I'm a big fan of the Japanese saga in the comic book".在《X战警：金钢狼》上映之前，Lauren Shuler Donner请赛门·鲍佛伊来写剧本，但后者没有自信接下此任务。到2009年5月4日，杰克曼的制片公司Seed Productions正在准备几项专案，包含以日本为舞台的《X战警：金钢狼》续集。2009年5月5日，就在《X战警：金钢狼》甫上映数天内，续集得到官方证实。

2009年8月，克里斯托夫·迈考利受聘为《X战警：金钢狼》的续集撰写剧本，他曾参与《X战警》的编剧但未挂名。根据Shuler-Donner的说法，续集将关注于金钢狼与日本犯罪集团首领之女Mariko的恋情，以及金钢狼在日本发生的事。金钢狼将得到一种不同的战斗风格，因为Mariko的父亲有着“向竿子一样的武器。电影里将会有日本武士、忍者、武士刀、各种武术——单挑决胜负，极致的战斗”。她也说道：“我们想要让电影具有可信度，很有可能会在日本拍摄。我认为角色们大概会说英语，而不是说日语再搭配字幕”。2010年1月，在人民选择奖颁奖典礼上，杰克曼表示本片将于2011年的某个时间点开拍，而在3月的时候，迈考利宣布剧本已经完成，电影可于隔年1月开工。对于导演人选，布莱恩·辛格先是予以拒绝，之后有来源指出另一位导演戴伦·艾洛诺夫斯基正在协商当中。

前期制作

"If you have a hero who can't be hurt, there's only one way to create stakes or jeopardy, and that's to put people he cares about in harm's way. And, not unlike the amnesia thing, that can get tired really fast... I think there's so much to mine in Logan without robbing him of self-knowledge. What I wanted to present to the audience was, what is it like to feel a prisoner in a life you cannot escape? You accumulate pain and loss, and keep that with you as you keep on going".

—James Mangold

2010年10月，杰克曼证实导演将由艾洛诺夫斯基担任。对此杰克曼表示，《X战警：金钢狼2》不会是大家常见的那种作品：“这部电影将跳脱框架，至少我希望如此。我期盼这部片将是最棒的……我当然会这么说，不过我确实有这种感觉，我感觉这部片会非常不同。这是金钢狼，可不是什么大力水手。他有点阴暗……不过你懂的，这是步调的转变。《普通嫌疑犯》的编剧克里斯·迈考利负责这部剧本，这看来是不错的迹象。（艾洛诺夫斯基）会让电影无与伦比。电影将有血有肉。电影必让观众看完后产生思索。”当时电影定于2011年3月在纽约开始主体拍摄，大部分画面则在之后前往日本拍摄。

杰克曼在2008年曾称本片是《X战警：金钢狼》的续集，不过在2010年11月，艾洛诺夫斯基表示，本片 was a "one-off" rather than a sequel，电影的片名也已定为“The Wolverine”（金钢狼：武士之战）。同样在11月，Fox Filmed Entertainment释出一份新闻稿，声明该公司已与艾洛诺夫斯基和他的制片公司Protozoa Pictures签下两年的全面合约，Protozoa将替二十世纪影业与探照灯影业筹备及制作电影。艾洛诺夫斯基在此合约之下的首部作品就将是《金钢狼：武士之战》。

2011年3月，艾洛诺夫斯基辞去导演一职，他说明道：“我和福斯的合作伙伴谈了够多，显然拍摄《金钢狼：武士之战》将使我在国外待上几乎一整年……要我离开家人这么久是很难受的。没办法完成这个专案让我沮丧，因为剧本非常棒，而且我很期盼和好友休·杰克曼再一次合作”。另一方面，由于日本当时的2011年日本东北地方太平洋近海地震震灾，福斯也决定“不急着”开始拍摄。杰克曼称本片仍将继续推进：“现在要往日本进发为时尚早……我们正在寻找另一位导演，福斯急切要拍这部片，我们正全力找人中。”

2011年5月，福斯手上有八位导演候选人的名单：何塞·帕蒂尔哈, 道格·李曼, 安东尼·福奎阿, Mark Romanek, 林诣彬, 盖文·欧唐纳 (导演), 詹姆斯·曼高德 and Gary Shore.。2011年6月，福斯进入与曼高德磋商的阶段，计划在2011年秋季开拍。2011年7月，杰克曼表示他计划在该年10月开拍，并提到他将和银武士对决。

2011年8月，《温哥华太阳报》报导称，《金钢狼：武士之战》的拍摄将在2011年11月11日至2012年3月1日间，于British Columbia本拿比的Canadian Motion Picture Park进行。几乎没过多久，因为杰克曼要演出《悲惨世界 (2012年电影)》的关系，拍摄宣告延期至2012年春季。2011年9月，Mark Bomback被雇来改写迈考利的剧本。Bomback一度想把小淘气加入剧本当中，but he rejected it for being "goofy" and "problematic".。2012年2月，电影定于2013年7月26日在美国上映。2012年4月时，拍摄定于2012年8月在澳洲开始，该地 would serve as the primary location due to financial and tax incentives.

2012年7月，actors 真田广之, Hal Yamanouchi, 冈本多绪 and 福岛莉拉 had been cast as Shingen, Ichirō, Mariko and Yukio, respectively. Additionally, 李威尹 was cast as Harada, and Brian Tee as Noburo Mori. By July 2012, Deadline Hollywood said 谢茜嘉·比尔 would play Viper. However, at the 2012 圣地亚哥国际漫画展, Biel said her role in the film was "not a done deal", explaining, "People keep talking about this. I don't know anything about it. It's a little bit too soon for that kind of an announcement". A few days later, negotiations between Biel and 20th Century Fox had broken down. Later in July, Fox had begun talks with 赛佛兰娜·科契柯娃 to take over the role. Somewhat unusually for action movies, The Wolverine features four female lead roles and "passes the 贝克德尔测验 early and often", according to 纽约 (杂志). Mangold noted that he wrote his heroines so that "they all have missions. They all have jobs to do other than be the object of affection", intent of avoiding the "worn out" trope of the 遇险少女. Jackman and Mangold were hoping to make the film 美国电影分级制度, but the studio rejected it.

In terms of his character, Jackman views Wolverine as "the ultimate outsider" and that "the great battle, I always thought with Wolverine, is the battle within himself". Regarding Logan's struggle with extreme longevity, Jackman said, "He realizes everyone he loves dies, and his whole life is full of pain. So it's better that he just escapes. He can't die really. He just wants to get away from everything". Jackman stated that he ate six meals a day in preparation for the role. Jackman contacted 巨石强森 for some tips on bulking up for the film, suggesting that he gain a pound a week by eating 6,000 calories a day for six months which consisted of "an awful lot of chicken, steak and brown rice".

In August 2012, 吉勒摩·戴托罗 revealed he had been interested in directing the film, as the Japanese arc was his favorite Wolverine story. After meeting with Jim Gianopulos and Jackman, del Toro passed, deciding he did not wish to spend two to three years of his life working on the movie.

Filming

On a production budget of $120 million, principal photography began on July 30, 2012. Shuler Donner had to be absent through most of the production due to 乳癌, with her treatment ending just before post-production begun. Some of the earliest scenes were shot at the Bonna Point Reserve in Kurnell, 新南威尔士州, which doubled as a Japanese prisoner-of-war camp. Filming there ended on August 2, 2012, with production scheduled to continue around Sydney followed by a few weeks in Japan before wrapping up in mid-November. On August 3, 2012, production moved to Picton, which doubled as a town in Canada's 育空地区 region.

On August 25, 2012, Mangold said that production moved to 东京都 and began shooting. On September 4, 2012, filming took place outside 福山车站 (日本) in 福山市. Filming in Tomonoura, a port in the Ichichi ward of Fukuyama, concluded on September 11, 2012.

On October 8, 2012, production returned to Sydney with filming on Erskine Street near Cockle Bay. The following week, the film shot in 巴拉马打 (新南威尔士), which doubled as a Japanese city. Also in October, Mangold revealed that the film follows the events of X战警：最后战役, saying, "Where this film sits in the universe of the films is after them all. Jean Grey is gone, most of the X-Men are disbanded or gone, so there's a tremendous sense of isolation for [Wolverine]". He elaborated that his decision to have The Wolverine take place after The Last Stand without making it a direct sequel to that film stemmed from the simplicity of setting the story after the huge amount of adventures Wolverine has endured throughout the film series the possibility of choosing a perfect moment for Logan to be stripped of both his heroic duties and his sense of purpose like a 浪人 due to several of his fellow X-Men dying in the third X-Men film, allowing him to live in a "separate" world that doesn't necessarily need to tie-in with the next film to allow for more creative freedom, and finding himself in an existential crisis due to his immortality, which Mangold felt that it sounded in accordance to the themes of the original arc by Claremont and Miller. Mangold later stated that in the fight scenes, "there's an urgency and a kind of intensity and hand to hand physicality that I hope is a little different than everything else out there". On October 25, 2012 production relocated to 悉尼奥林匹克公园 in western Sydney. The set was made into a Japanese village draped in snow with filming beginning on November 1, 2012. On November 10, 2012, filming took place on a back street in 萨里山 (新南威尔士州). The set, constructed on Brisbane St., was transformed to look like a Japanese street with Japanese signage and vehicles scattered throughout. Principal photography concluded on November 21, 2012.

Reshoots took place in Montréal, including the credits scene where Magneto and Professor X warn Wolverine of a new threat. Said scene was contributed by 布莱恩·辛格 and 赛门·金柏格, writers of X战警：未来昔日, as a way to "reintroduce Patrick Stewart into the universe" and set up their film. Mangold stated that while production of The Wolverine started before Days of Future Past and thus the film was mostly focused on being a self-contained story, he was able to collaborate with Singer to "make things groove together".

Post-production

In October 2012, it was reported that The Wolverine would be converted to 3D电影, making it the first 3D release for one of 20th Century Fox's Marvel films. Visual effects for the film were completed by 维塔数码, Rising Sun Pictures (RSP), Iloura, and Shade VFX.

In order to recreate the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, RSP studied natural phenomena such as volcanoes, instead of relying on archived footage of atomic blasts, and recreated the effects digitally. They also replaced the Sydney cityscape on the horizon with views of Nagasaki. The walking bear featured in the Yukon scenes was created with computer graphics by Weta Digital, while Make-Up Effects Group built a 12-foot-tall animatronic bear, that was used for shots of the creature dying after it had been hit by poisoned arrows fired by hunters.

For a fight scene taking place on top of a speeding bullet train, the actors and stunt performers filmed on wires above a set piece surrounded by a 色键. The moving background, filmed on an elevated freeway in Tokyo, was added later. Weta Digital visual effects supervisor Martin Hill said the team adopted a "Google街景服务 method", explaining "But instead of having a big panoramic cam on top of a van, we built a rig that had eight 45-degree angle 瑞德数位电影摄影机公司 [cameras] that gave us massive resolution driving down all the massive lanes of the freeway. We let a bit of air out of the tires of the van and kept a constant 60 kilometers an hour. So if we shot at 48 fps we just needed to speed up the footage by 10 times to give us the 300 kilometers an hour required".

The Silver Samurai, rendered by Weta Digital, was based on a model that had been 3D打印 and chrome painted using electrolysis. Stunt performer Shane Rangi, wearing a 动作捕捉 suit, stood on stilts while filming as the Silver Samurai. Rangi's performance was then used to animate the digital character. Hill said the main challenge was creating the Silver Samurai's highly reflective surface, "He's pretty much chrome. We were worried that he was going to look incredibly digital and that it was going to be very hard to make him look solid and real and not just like a mirrored surface".

The original assembly cut of the film ran around two hours and 35 minutes. The mid-credit scene was written by 赛门·金柏格 and shot by the X-Men: Days of Future Past crew, though Mangold directed the scene.
