In the near future, 2029, mutants are nearly extinct. Aged and weary Logan (Wolverine), played by Hugh Jackman, works as a limousine driver and hides out on the Mexican border with Caliban (Stephen Merchant). They secretly care for the ailing Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), whose mind suffers from a degenerative disease that causes dangerous telepathic seizures. Their peace is disrupted by the arrival of Gabriela (Elizabeth Rodriguez), a nurse from the Transigen corporation, who begs Logan to take the girl Laura (Dafne Keen) to a safe place — "Eden" in North Dakota. Laura turns out to be a genetic clone of Wolverine, created from his DNA, and possesses the same abilities, including adamantium claws. They are pursued by the ruthless Donald Pierce (Boyd Holbrook) and his cyborg Reavers, as well as the mysterious X-24 — a more perfect clone of Logan. Logan, Charles, and Laura embark on a dangerous journey that becomes the hero's last attempt to find meaning in life and atone for past sins. Cast:
