At 53, who could've thought that Hugh Jackman could still dance like he did 20 years ago?
Hugh Jackman's broadway comeback is DEFINITELY real!
The retired Wolverine star dances his way back to his home in Broadway as he takes the lead as Harold Hill in the revival of Meredith Wilson's 1957 Classic Musical "The Music Man" with fellow Broadway legend Sutton Foster.
The tap-dancing and groove-inducing numbers are not a new feat for Jackman as he was brilliant as always on his last performance as P.T Barnum in the 2017 hit "The Greatest Showman," in which he was joined by Zendaya, Zac Efron, and Keala Settle.
The Tony Award-Winning lead man took to Instagram days before the special previews at the Winter Garden Theatre, a snippet of him performing "Shipoopi" with her fellow co-star Sutton Foster.
Foster is a Two-Time Tony Winner for her iconic performance on Anything Goes as Reno Sweeney and Thoroughly Modern Millie as the titular role.
Jackman was very vocal in sharing his excitement in getting back onstage for the Music Man revival.
"I don't know how many months-years-this date has been in my head, but it feels like a long time," the Les Miz actor confessed.
