Hugh Jackman about the concerts in London: I just want them to be fun. I feel like I should have a whisky in my hand, like Dean Martin, and then get Robbie Williams to come on and join me.
The Australian actor Hugh Jackman is planning a series of ”fun” Sunday night concerts in London. The X-Men star is planning to sing in London later this year, and he wants bad boy Robbie Williams to join him. He has recently staged a show in Toronto, where he sang a number of show tunes from Oklahoma!, Carousel and Dreamgirls.
“I wanted to create a show where I can’t wait to do it,” he told British newspaper The Daily Mail.
“I loved that ‘anything can happen’, relaxed feel about Sinatra - and viewing Peter Allen’s tapes also taught me a lot. We’re planning to do some Sunday night concerts when I’m in London in the spring-the actor revealed.
Hugh Jackman plans to do the concerts when he takes a break from starring in the film version of musical ‘Les Miserables’.
The Les Misérables is being directed by Tom Hooper and will see Hugh portraying Jean Valjean. The character is a former convict seeking redemption, and the story follows him as he tries to carve out a new life.
“I got cast early, because there was another movie I could do and I didn’t want to wait and get to November to find I had no movie at all. I told them that and I eventually got it”-Hugh Jackman explained how much the part meant to him .
