Black Swan director Darren Aronofsky has unfortunately dropped out of helming The Wolverine. His reason for dropping out is because he does not want to be away from his son for a long period of time. Aronofsky has a child with ex Rachel Weisz.
Stated Aronofsky: "As I talked more about the film with my collaborators at Fox, it became clear that the production of ‘The Wolverine’ would keep me out of the country for almost a year. I was not comfortable being away from my family for that length of time. I am sad that I won't be able to see the project through, as it is a terrific script and I was very much looking forward to working with my friend, Hugh Jackman, again."
Stated Twentieth Century Fox: "While we are of course disappointed that Darren can’t do ‘The Wolverine’, we also understand and respect his reasons. Having done both ‘The Wrestler’ and ‘Black Swan’ with Darren, we know he is an extraordinary talent and we look forward to working with him on other projects in the future. Hugh Jackman and Fox both remain fully committed to making ‘The Wolverine’. We will regroup and move forward aggressively."

Since Aronofsky won't be able to direct, my three choices as replacements are Bryan Singer, Zack Snyder or Matthew Vaughn.
