Hugh Jackman is a big name in today's entertainment. He has had a successful career and has done so much in his lifetime. From superheroes to dancing, he has done it all. He's hosted the Oscars, performed on Broadway and has made his movie characters come to life. Let's take a look back at his early years.
Hugh Jackman was born in Sydney, Australia on October 12, 1968. He has four older siblings and a younger half-sister. In high school, he starred in a production of My Fair Lady. He later studied at the Unversity of Technology in Sydney and joined a theater class, in his final year, for credits. He ended up playing the lead in Memorandum. Jackman graduated in 1991 with a BA in Communications.
He soon joined and completed a one-year course at the Actors' Centre in Sydney. He later committed his time to studying acting at 22. Later, he was offered a role in a popular soap opera Neighbours but turned it down. When attending classes, he stated that "it wasn't coming to [him]. Everyone was cooler, everyone seemed more likely to succeed." Rather, he attended the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts of Edith Cowan University in Perth and graduated in 1994.
Before his final graduation performance, Jackman received a phone call offering him a role on Correlli. He took it and was excited due to it being his first major professional job. On set, he met Deborra-Lee Furness. They developed a relationship and soon married. After the short season of his first tv show, he played Gaston in a Disney production of Beauty and the Beast and later played Joe Gillis in Sunset Boulevard. He later started to become famous outside of Australia when he played the lead role of Curly in the London's West End production of "Oklahoma!"
He's ultimate break out role was Wolverine in X-Men. His wife original advised him to not take the role but he didn't listen to her and took it. The movie soon became a box-office hit, earning $296 million. He reprised his role in X2: X-Men United in 2002, X-Men: The Last Stand in 2006. His final performance of Wolverine was in 2017's Logan, which portrayed his final days.
His other big roles include Australia, The Prestige, Scoop, Van Helsing, Deception, Les Miserables and The Greatest Showman.
