Hugh Jackman's Early Morning Christmas Fun Came With A Warning, Know Why

Hugh Jackman recently provided a glimpse of his first Christmas post breakup from his long term partner Deborra-Lee Furness. Amid his busy schedule filming Deadpool 3, the 55 year old actor shared snippets on his Instagram, showing his Christmas Eve dinner at the Polo Bar and a unique Christmas morning adventure. Rising early, the Australian heartthrob visited the most famous Rockefeller Center to witness the iconic Christmas tree and advised his followers that early mornings is the best time to view the tree without crowds. However, while Jackman was enjoying his time at the Rockefeller Center, his adventure took an unexpected turn as he was stopped by a security guard for breaching the designated area.

In the video, Hugh is wearing a dark blue puffer jacket paired with matching pants; the actor completed his look with a cream beanie. Despite the fun visit, his outing took a bittersweet turn when security intervened and gave him warning for getting too close to the tree. Unfazed by the incident, Jackman shared advice with his followers and wrote, “I highly recommend getting up really early on Christmas morning and taking a walk to see the Rockefeller Christmas tree. It’s so beautiful and not crowded at all. I did get in trouble for going beyond the barrier but the security guard was nice and let me go with just a warning.”

Hugh Jackman has established a strong connection with New York City, making it a second home due to his numerous Broadway activities. Renowned for his roles in hit musicals and plays like The Boy From Oz, A Steady Rain and The River, Jackman recently starred in The Music Man, playing the lead role of Harold Hill. Despite being born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Jackman and his family have a special place for NYC in their hearts, where they now mainly reside.

Following the end of the SAG-AFTRA strike, Deadpool 3 was among the first Hollywood movies to kickstart its production. Jackman remained occupied with the shooting of Ryan Reynolds’ film during this period and currently, he’s been taking a hiatus to enjoy the festive season in NYC. Jackman plans to return to the United Kingdom post holidays to resume work on the upcoming Marvel film. Interestingly, Jackman and Reynolds, previously crossed paths in the 2009 film X-Men Origins: Wolverine, are set to reunite in Deadpool 3.
