Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster’s undeniable chemistry on show in resurfaced clip

The obvious attraction between Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster is clearly evident in a recently rediscovered video clip.

Australian star, aged 56, confirmed his relationship with Sutton, also 50, in January, following numerous rumors about their romantic involvement over several months.

Nevertheless, a video clip dated 2022, posted on TikTok, depicts the actors deviating from their script for a playful, flirtatious conversation.

In this video, posted by the user HuaHua.png, we see a duo performing on stage as part of the Broadway show “The Music Man.

The story centers on the character of Marian Paroo, portrayed by Foster, who becomes smitten with the charismatic swindler, Harold Hill, who is famously played by the actor known for his role as Wolverine.

It seems that a fair amount of acting chemistry was needed for their stage romance, but based on a recently unearthed video clip, they seemed to put in extra effort.

The video captures a heated argument between the upcoming pair, with Foster pushing Jackman forcefully in annoyance at certain moments.

Yet, in an unexpected break from the script, Jackman nonchalantly struts towards his fellow actor, casually unbuttoning his coat as he goes.

In a playful departure from the scripted scene, Jackman strolls over to his co-star, loosening his jacket in the process.

Both versions maintain the original meaning while sounding more natural and engaging.

The display led Foster to lose his composure as well, chuckling together with the crowd at Hugh’s flirtatious move.

The title of the video indicates that if you are taken aback by Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster, it might help to remember their reactions from the production of ‘The Music Man’ in 2022.

Though the interaction seemed to amuse the spectators, it didn’t resonate with many as positively in their comments.

Fans were quick to slam the pair for ‘ruining’ the scene with the cheeky improvisation.

One person remarked, ‘I watched this performance, but their frequent interactions with the audience by breaking the fourth wall and making exaggerated expressions took away from an otherwise fantastic musical. It left me feeling quite disheartened.’

Another person agreed, saying, ‘I also witnessed it and shared your sentiments. It was disconcerting to see them break the fourth wall so frequently. The humor became rather farcical.’

Others claimed the exchange was not as spontaneous as the actors might have you believe.

One theater-goer proposed, “Every night, they’d stage a small, deceptive pause,” while another remarked, “It’s mortifying to learn that this ‘pause’ was scripted as part of the play.

One viewer, on the other hand, swiftly defended the actors by saying, “These commenters don’t seem to know how to enjoy themselves.

I watched this performance not once, but twice, and found it amusing and endearing. It’s the first time I’ve ever taken a liking to Marion.

Back in January of this very year, Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness made their romantic bond official, both having parted ways with our previous partners. I can’t help but feel like a giddy schoolgirl over this news!

In September 2023, the actor who played The Wolverine parted ways with his wife of 27 years, Deborra-Lee Furness. Meanwhile, in October 2024, Foster ended her marriage by filing for divorce from her spouse, Ted Griffin.

A recently unearthed video emerges following Furness’s candid revelation of feeling ‘betrayed’ in a strong declaration made to the Daily Mail.

The rift between them seemed to grow more acrimonious as she recounted her ‘painful ordeal of being deceived’ following her divorce petition, which she filed last month.

She expressed her deep sympathy, saying that her heart and concern are with everyone who has experienced the difficult path of betrayal,” she said.

Although it’s a serious injury that goes quite deep, I have faith in something greater than myself – be it God or the universe – and trust that this mysterious force is constantly working with us, not against us.

She went on to say: ‘This conviction has guided me through the dissolution of a nearly three-decade long marriage.’

Through this experience, I’ve accumulated a wealth of knowledge and insight. It may seem like we’re encountering obstacles along the way, but these challenges are ultimately guiding us towards our highest potential, our true destiny.

Though it might be difficult at first, ultimately finding the courage to live according to your own self, principles, and limits brings about a sense of release and independence.

She ended her remark by sharing the key lesson she’s taken away, which is that it all boils down to impersonal matters.

Hugh hasn’t made a personal announcement about the separation yet, but a source shared with The Daily Mail that he felt ‘deeply disheartened’ by Deborra-Lee’s comments, as he thought they had agreed to keep their disagreements private.

An insider noted that while there wasn’t a specific rule forbidding her, there was an implicit agreement that she wouldn’t publicly criticize or badmouth him in the media.

‘She got around this by not naming him – instead focusing on how she felt.’
