Hugh Jackman reveals why he keeps choosing dark, emotional roles
Make us preferred on Google Hugh Jackman says Robin Hood heals him in unexpected ways Hugh Jackman reveals why Hollywood's flawed heroes keep pulling him back.
Forget perfect superheroes—Hugh Jackman says it's the messy, broken characters that truly keep him hooked.
While promoting The Death of Robin Hood alongside Jodie Comer, the player opened up about why he's drawn to complicated antiheroes, admitting, "I am fascinated by them."
For Jackman, the obsession started long before Wolverine. "I go back to even Notable Wars as a kid, it was, 'Who's Han Spotlight? That's an interesting character part figure.' I was very intrigued by them," he said, adding that Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven also left a lasting impression.
His latest character part takes that fascination even further. In The Death of Robin Hood , Jackman plays an aging, battle-scarred Robin Hood confronting the emotional cost of a lifetime of violence. Supporters of Logan may notice familiar themes—and Jackman agrees.
