“The love he radiates is sublime. And that is gorgeous in the most emotional, captivating way,”
- Ashley Judd, actress and co-star

“Hugh’s a stitch. He was funny and sweet and acerbic and hilarious in his role. When we first met, he was so prepared, I felt like a big dope, hanging out in rehearsal to cruise for snacks.”
- Ashley Judd, actress and co-star

“When he’s with the baby, Hugh is just like he is with adults. He’s interested. He cares. He’s full-bodied with people.”
- John Travolta, actor and co-star

“Hugh’s absolutely guileless. If the guy had been any less intelligent or less big-hearted, I don’t think our movie would work. The second he hits the screen, you love him.”
- Tony Goldwyn, director of “Someone Like You…”

“I offered Hugh the role on the spot. Usually, you think about it or you make a call or you call an agent. It’s the first time I ever offered a role to an actor on the spot since I offered Kevin Spacey Usual Suspects. [Jackman] was really extraordinary.”
- Bryan Singer, director of “X-Men”

“He’s the perfect man. He’s talented, bright, sweet, charming and gracious. Everyone loves him, and he’s sexy as hell.”
- Rebecca Romjin, actress and co-star

“Women, men, children and dogs completely went to pieces when Hugh took his shirt off.”
-Maureen Lipman, actress and co-star

“He’s a down-to-earth guy, a well-grounded guy, a zero-ego guy, with none of the bullsh*t that a lot of the people have in this town.”
- Tom DeSanto, executive producer of “X-Men”

“I knew Hugh was a great actor because he was amazing, he’s not like [Wolverine] at all.”
- Anna Paquin, actress and co-star

“Hugh is an amazing actor and entirely unique in this day and age. He just has the essence of great movie stars of the past. There are times that you can see Errol Flynn or Cary Grant in him.”
-James Mangold, director of “Kate & Leopold”

“He’s one of the kindest men I’ve ever met. I was very nervous and Hugh was more concerned about me that I was. He wasn’t just sitting around waiting for me to take off my shirt. He was the one who called for the set to be closed and he told a guy who didn’t need to be there to beat it. I had to shoot that scene three times, and thanks to Hugh it wasn’t stressful.”
- Halle Berry, actress and co-star
