Op 1 april, geen grap, kwam het nieuws naar buiten dat er een vroege versie van X-Men Origins: Wolverine was te downloaden via diverse P2P netwerken. Naar eerder een reactie van Fox reageert nu ook Wolverine zelf, Hugh Jackman, op deze gebeurtenis:

"Look, it's serious crime and there's no doubting that it was very disappointing," Jackman said of the film's online leak. "I was heartbroken by it because there are a lot of people here in Australia and all over the world working on this film, and to have it out there in that way was very disappointing."
