Hugh Jackman is an Avon Man
We're a long way from Wolverine.
You've seen him slay superpowered mutants with his indestructible claws, and hunt down bloodthirsty vampires in a dusty black cape. You've even seen him wrangle 'roos in the Outback. But get ready to witness Hugh Jackman's manliest role yet... makeup salesman?
At least that's the latest word from Hollywood. According to Variety, Jackman has signed on to star as a down-on-his-luck auto mechanic that is recruited to become an Avon salesman.
At first, as these things usually go, he's uncomfortable and involves himself in embarrasingly non-manly shenanigans. But pretty soon he uses his good looks and charm to advantage, and attempts to recruit his friends in order to save his debt-ridden family.
This new career move for Jackman may be a huge gamble. On one hand, it may irreparably shatter every little boy's idea that the only thing a man is supposed to do is growl and destroy things.

But on the other hand, we may be seeing a whole new trajectory for Jackman. Lord knows there are plenty of roles out there for experts at playing large, hairy and flamboyant men.
