No tiara for Hugh.
Hugh Jackmanprobably won’t describe April 25th as his perfect date any time soon.
“No one knew ‘X-Men’ yet,” Jackman said.
“I was a nobody.
Jackman was thrown for a loop when he walked into the audition to findSandra Bullockthere to read with him.
He had never read opposite another actor in a casting situation before.
I didn’t expect her to be in there.
I’m guessing eight people she tested with.”
And Bullock really delivered, only illustrating to Jackman how ill-equipped he was for the audition.
“‘Holy s—!
And so quick and fast.
I’m not even vaguely up to speed here,’ " he recalled thinking of Bullock.
And then you don’t get it,” Jackman said.
The same yearMiss Congenialityhit theaters, so didX-Men,launching both Jackman and Bullock to super-stardom.
Sadly, the two stars have never teamed up in the years since.
