Jackman is also known for his early theatre roles in Beauty and the Beast as Gaston in 1995, Sunset Boulevard as Joe Gillis in 1996, Oklahoma! as Curly McLain in 1998, and Carousel as Billy Bigelow in 2002. On Broadway, Jackman won the 2004 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for his role of Peter Allen in The Boy from Oz. From 2021 to 2023 he starred as con man Harold Hill in the Broadway revival of the musical The Music Man, earning another Tony Award nomination. A four-time host of the Tony Awards, he won an Emmy Award for hosting the 2005 ceremony. He also hosted the 81st Academy Awards in 2009.
Early life
Jackman was born in Sydney, New South Wales, to Grace McNeil (née Greenwood) and Christopher John Jackman,[3] a Cambridge-educated accountant.[4][5] His parents were English and had come to Australia in 1967 as part of the "Ten Pound Poms" immigration scheme.[5] Thus, in addition to his Australian citizenship, Jackman holds British citizenship by virtue of being born to UK-born parents.[6][7] One of his paternal great-grandfathers, Nicholas Isidor Bellas, was Greek,[8][9] from the Ottoman Empire (now in Greece).[10][11] His parents were devout Christians, having been converted by Evangelist Billy Graham after their marriage.[5] Jackman has four older siblings and was the second of his parents' children to be born in Australia.[12] He also has a younger half-sister, from his mother's remarriage.[13] His parents divorced when he was eight, and Jackman remained in Australia with his father and two brothers, while his mother moved back to England with Jackman's two sisters.[5][14][15] As a child, Jackman liked the outdoors, spending much time at the beach and on camping trips and school holidays all over Australia. He wanted to see the world, saying, "I used to spend nights looking at atlases. I decided I wanted to be a chef on a plane. Because I'd been on a plane and there was food on board, I presumed there was a chef. I thought that would be an ideal job."[16]
Jackman went to primary school at
After obtaining his BA, Jackman completed the one-year course "The Journey" at the
Jackman has said he "always loved acting but when I started at drama school I was like the dunce of the class. It just wasn't coming right to me. Everyone was cooler, everyone seemed more likely to succeed, everyone seemed more natural at it and in retrospect, I think that is good. I think it is good to come from behind as an actor. I think it is good to go into an audition thinking, 'Man I've got to be at my best to get this gig.'"[26]
Career
1995–1999: Early career in theatre
On the night of his final Academy graduation performance, Jackman received a phone call offering him a role on
Jackman became known outside Australia in 1998, when he played the leading role of Curly in the
2000–2004: Breakthrough with Wolverine and the X-Men
Jackman had his breakthrough role playing Wolverine in Bryan Singer's X-Men (2000)—a superhero film based on the Marvel Comics team of the same name.[28] Co-starring Patrick Stewart, James Marsden, Famke Janssen and Ian McKellen, the film tells the story of a group of mutants, whose superhuman powers make them distrusted by normal humans, but who fight to protect humans from villains. The role was originally written for Russell Crowe who instead suggested Jackman for the part.[29] Jackman says that his wife advised him against taking on the role, as she found it "ridiculous".[30] He initially studied wolves to develop his character, as he thought that Wolverine alluded to wolves.[31] X-Men was successful at the box-office, earning US$296 million.[32] The role earned him a Saturn Award for Best Actor.[33]
Wolverine was tough for Jackman to portray because he had few lines, but much emotion to convey in them. To prepare, he watched Clint Eastwood in the Dirty Harry movies and Mel Gibson in Mad Max 2. "There were guys who had relatively little dialogue, like Wolverine had, but you knew and felt everything. I'm not normally one to copy, but I wanted to see how these guys achieved it."[34] Jackman was adamant about doing his own stunts for the movie. "We worked a lot on the movement style of Wolverine, and I studied some martial arts. I watched a lot of Mike Tyson fights, especially his early fights. There's something about his style, the animal rage, that seemed right for Wolverine. I kept saying to the writers, 'Don't give me long, choreographed fights for the sake of it. Don't make the fights pretty."[35] Jackman also had to get used to wearing Wolverine's claws. He said, "Every day in my living room, I'd just walk around with those claws, to get used to them. I've got scars on one leg, punctures straight through the cheek, on my forehead. I'm a bit clumsy. I'm lucky I didn't tell them that when I auditioned."[16]

Jackman, at 1.90 m (6 ft 3 in)[36][37] stands 30 cm taller than Wolverine, who is said in the original comic book to be 5 feet 3 inches (1.60 m).[38] Hence, the filmmakers were frequently forced to shoot Jackman at unusual angles or only from the waist up to make him appear shorter than he actually is, and his co-stars wore platform soles. Jackman was also required to add a great deal of muscle for the role, and in preparing for the fourth film in the series, he bench-pressed over 136 kg (300 lb).[39]
Jackman reprised his role in 2003's

Jackman was asked to consider taking on the role of James Bond before Daniel Craig was chosen to play the character, but turned it down due to other commitments. Speaking to the British Press Association in 2011, Jackman said: "I was about to shoot X-Men 2 and Wolverine had become this thing in my life and I didn't want to be doing two such iconic characters at once."[43]

Jackman will reprise the role of Wolverine in Deadpool 3, starring Ryan Reynolds, set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[84]
Production company
In 2005, Jackman joined with longtime assistant John Palermo to form a production company, Seed Productions, whose first project was Viva Laughlin in 2007. Jackman's wife Deborra-Lee Furness is also involved in the company, and Palermo had three rings made with a "unity" inscription for himself, Furness, and Jackman.[85] Jackman said, "I'm very lucky in the partners I work with in my life, Deb and John Palermo. It really works. We all have different strengths. I love it. It's very exciting."[86]
Personal life
Jackman married Deborra-Lee Furness on 11 April 1996, at St. John's in Toorak, Victoria, a suburb of Melbourne.[87] They met on the set of Australian TV show Correlli.[88] Jackman personally designed an engagement ring for Furness, and their wedding rings bore the Sanskrit inscription "Om paramar mainamar", translated as "we dedicate our union to a greater source".[89] Furness had two miscarriages,[90] following which she and Jackman adopted two children.[91][92][93] Jackman and his family live in New York. In September 2023, the couple announced that they had separated.[94][95][96]
Jackman was raised
In November 2013, Jackman announced he had basal-cell carcinoma removed from his nose.[100] He had a second carcinoma removed from his nose in May 2014, telling Associated Press that he expects to have future recurrences.[101] This resulted in Jackman attending the various worldwide premieres of X-Men: Days of Future Past with a bandage on his nose, and urging his followers on Instagram to "wear sunscreen".[102]
On 18 March 2015, Jackman revealed that he had to cancel stage performances in Turkey because he had a left vocal cord haemorrhage.[103][104]
A portrait of Jackman and Furness by Paul Newton was a finalist in the 2022 Archibald Prize.[105]
In April 2023, Jackman shared in a social media update that his biopsy results had all returned negative. He had tests taken this week as a precaution after his doctor observed symptoms which according to the doctor, "could be or could not be" basal cell carcinomas. Since 2013, Jackman has undergone multiple procedures to remove skin cancer. He continued to stress the significance of wearing high-SPF sunscreen, regardless of the season.[106]
