How The Greatest Showman made Hugh Jackman's life "difficult"
The Greatest Showman star Hugh Jackman has revealed that the movie has made his life somewhat "difficult".
Emerging as one of Hollywood's most popular faces earlier this century – thanks to his role as Wolverine in the X-Men franchise – it seems that the success of 2017's musical phenomenon has elevated Jackman's celebrity status to a whole new level.
Speaking to Herald Sun recently, the Australian star revealed that the movie musical brought a whole new group of fans into his life.

"'It's made it difficult going to my daughter's dance classes. I used to go every week and nobody really cared. The dance school was not your classic Wolverine fanbase," he said.
"Now I go and the songs from The Greatest Showman are playing in nearly every dance class, so it's a bit different."
That's the power of music for you.

Meanwhile, Jackman's popularity might be set for another boost if his co-star Zac Efron's words are anything to go by.
He discussed on The Graham Norton Show back in April: "Hugh is working on all sorts of things including a one man show. What's next? I don't know but I hope there's a sequel.
"I think right now there's more emphasis being put on what will happen with it... No one is really sure right now, so that's the honest truth. But I think someone is working on a treatment for something... I know they are, they're working on a treatment for something."
