Iโve broken a cardinal rule of art, music, and career paths: actors are supposed to act, and musicians are supposed to music. Thatโs how it works. You donโt buy fish from a dentist, or ask a plumber for financial advice, so why listen to an actorโs music?
Hugh JackmanMy favorite play in drama school was 'The Bacchae.' It's about a king who literally gets eaten alive by all the women in the play in a kind of orgy - it's related to the word 'bacchanal' - and I loved that idea of animalistic chaos and following our own desires.
Hugh JackmanI don't think many actors are the best judge of careers. I think generally we have good instincts about what we can do in terms of acting. And often they become directors, which I don't want to be.
Hugh JackmanI have done many movies that people hadn't seen. 'The Fountain,' I spent a year on that. 'The Prestige' with Chris Nolan, and 'Australia.' From my perspective it's very satisfying. Some movies people see and other movies they don't. 'Wolverine,' 'X Men,' I know that in some level people know me just for that and it's fine for me.
