Designed for BD-Live compatible Blu-ray players, Live Lookup lets you call up IMDB profiles of any actor during a film, even the extras, reports SlashFilm.

The feature is including on the Wolverine disc (pictured), already on shelves in the US and hitting international markets on October 19th. It updates IMDB data each time the disc loads.

Rather than disrupt others trying to watch the film, Fox is also working on the ability to access extra content such as Live Lookup from portable devices such as the iPhone.
