Hugh Has The Edge

Hugh Jackman on the set of The Wolverine with Korean star Psy
He really is the easiest going superstar and when an acting pal asked him to help launch his book, Hugh Jackman was only to happy to oblige.

Dean Carey is the Creative Director of the ACA (Actors Centre Australia) in Devonshire Street,
Surry Hills (a few doors from the Shuttle office. He's known Hugh since long before his movie days and he is very well connected as our pics show. Jackman is also patron of the ACA.

His book The Acting Edge is combined with an interactive website (yes-there is an app as well) that promises to be the perfect aid to new aspiring young actors.
Drew & Ian McKellen
And many of them turned up yesterday to meet Hugh and Drew, share a drink and


perhaps catch a few tips from Jackman who is currently filming The Wolverine around Sydney.

We know most of Wolverine's locations as they seem to coincide with just where we always park the car and all spots are taken by equipment and catering vans.
Still, Hugh is about the only movie star we know who still gives a cheery wave to people he's meet once or twice.
