Hugh Jackman Shows Off His Ripped Physique While Detailing His Workout Routine For ‘Deadpool And Wolverine’

Buy Me A Coffee

Hugh Jackman is back and making the rest of us look like we’ve been doing Netflix marathons instead of actual marathons. The 55-year-old X-Men actor took to Instagram to show off his abs, and let’s just say, the internet collectively dropped its snacks.

Picture this: Hugh, in a bathroom (because where else do you flex?), shirtless, with abs so sharp they could probably slice through adamantium. It’s like Wolverine popped off the screen and said, “What if I did P90X, but like… forever?”

In a voice note—because when you look like that, you don’t need captions—Hugh broke down his secret to looking like a human action figure. Spoiler alert: it’s not magic; it’s deadlifts and tilapia. He said, “A lot of people ask me how I got into shape. What did I eat? How did I train? How is this even possible at your age? Is this even legal?” Okay, he didn’t say that last part, but you were thinking it.

Hugh, ever the humble guy, credited his team (because clearly, getting abs like that takes a village). His personal trainer, Beth Lewis, apparently had him bench-pressing small cars, while makeup artist Whitney James had the very important job of keeping him glistening like a Greek god. Yep, that’s right—there was oil. Lots of it. Enough to make a Slip ‘N Slide out of his biceps.

“Whitney was in charge of making sure I looked like a Thanksgiving turkey fresh out of the oven,” Hugh said, probably while laughing because he knows we’ll never look that good. Apparently, it became a running joke on set with director Shawn Levy regularly shouting, “Fresh lube on Hugh!” like it was some kind of bodybuilding car wash. And yes, everyone laughed—except for Hugh, who was too busy being grumpy about his strict tilapia and bean diet. (For the record, that combo is no one’s idea of a cheat meal.)

Now, before you rush to the gym and start oiling yourself up, remember that Deadpool & Wolverine is in theaters now. So while Hugh is out here lifting weights the size of small planets, the least we can do is lift our popcorn and enjoy the movie.

Hugh Jackman is ripped, lubed, and ready to remind us all what the human body could do if we weren’t so attached to pizza.
