From Broadway to the Ring

I think Hugh Jackman wants us to know he’s the hardest-working man in showbiz.

Not only is he brighting up the Great White Way with Daniel Craig these days, but now he’s in negotiations to star in – Shirtlessness Alert! – the boxing film Real Steel. Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum) is on board to direct.

Jackman would play a former fighter who earns his keep as a promoter of Robot Boxing after the human version of the sport is outlawed.

No word on whether he’d take on the project before or after the contemporary musical The Greatest Showman on Earth.
