Hugh Jackman Goes Bald for Director Joe Wright’s ‘Pan’

When Hugh Jackman prepares for a role…….he prepares for a role! A few days ago the Oscar-nominated actor took to social media with a photo showing off his new haircut, sans the hair. If you were out and about that day you may have heard the faint sounds of lots of hearts being broken.

Of course this wasn’t to get ready for another outing as our favorite adamantium-laced mutant, but rather for a totally new character. Jackman’s new cut and facial hair is for his role as ‘Blackbeard’ in Warner Bros. upcoming film – Pan – directed by Joe Wright (Hanna, The Soloist). Film production is happening in London now.
