SEED Productions, a venture between Hugh Jackman, Deborra-Lee Furness and producer John Palermo, has dissolved, the Daily Telegraph reports.
The production company launched in 2006 with plans to produce 4 – 5 films a year in Australia with 20th Century Fox, an output and development deal with Foxtel, a theatre company and an artists management division, as well as a swag of film and TV development deals in the US.
In that time it produced the films X-Men: The Last Stand, Deception, X-Men Origins: Wolverine and the short-lived Viva Laughlin (pictured).
For Foxtel SEED produced An Aussie Goes Barmy, An Aussie Goes Bolly and The Directors’ Series.
Jackman and Palermo still remain partners on Barnum, a musical that is being written by Jenny Bick, and a remake of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel.

20th Century Fox has the rights to Wolverine so this does nothing to affect any future Wolverine movies.
I’m sure 20th century Fox will still make another Wolverine movie.
What happens with the new Wolverine movie then?
So where does this leave the Wolverine sequeal? 🙁
Am I the one one who wished Viva Laughlin continued? So much mocking potential we all missed out on!
