The Hugh Jackman film was downloaded an estimated several 100,000 times from file sharing websites on Tuesday.
20th Century Fox confirmed the copy had now been removed and the FBI informed.
The studio behind Wolverine stated: “The source of the initial leak and any subsequent postings will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
“The courts have handed down significant criminal sentences for such acts” the studio noted.
Both the FBI and the Motion Picture Association of America are “actively investigating” the crime.
The film is not due for release until 29 April in the UK and 1 May in the US.
Fox called the leaked movie a “stolen, incomplete and early version”.
Viewers reported that green screens and wires attached to actors were still visible.
One user wrote on film website aintitcool.com: “The CGI is missing and the movie looks horrible without it.
Such theft undermines the enormous efforts of the filmmakers and actors and, above all, hurts fans of the film
20th Century Fox statement“Even if you see the workprint you’re still going to have to go see it in the theatre to fully experience the full movie with CGI effects fully intact.”
Fox confirmed the film “was without many effects and had missing scenes and temporary sound and music.”
