Last year's X-Men: Apocalypse used a series of clever 80s-themed viral videos in its promotion, and the upcoming X-Men spinoff Logan looks to be doing the same. A creepy new promo has been tweeted by director James Mangold, which shows mutant child Laura Kinney--aka X-23--being given her deadly claws. Check it out below:

　　Earlier this week, Mangold also revealed a stylish new retro-themed IMAX poster for the movie. In addition, a couple of clips have been released, including this mysterious black-and-white teaser.

　　The movie carries an R rating for its "strong brutal violence and language throughout, and for brief nudity." Star Hugh Jackman agreed to a paycut so the film could receive the restricted rating.

　　In a recent interview with Slashfilm, Mangold discussed the freedom of making a film with more restrictive rating. "It was exciting," he said. "What was inspiring, and what we really set out to do more than anything about specific ratings, was just to make an adult film. For me, the rating and the violence level was part of it. But also just raising the maturity level of the film.

　　"A lot of these films are essentially made for both 12-year-olds and 20-year-olds, and I thought it would be interesting, even if we got less money to do it, to make one of these films, a comic book film, essentially, that's for adults."

　　Logan also stars Dafne Keen, Stephen Merchant, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Boyd Holbrook, and Richard E. Grant. It hits theaters on March 3, 2017.
