He's known for playing the mutant hero Wolverine in the hit X-Men films.

And Hugh Jackman put his impressively sculpted physique on display on Monday as he went for an early morning swim at Bondi Beach.

The actor, 56, didn't look too far off from his famed mutant character as he showed off his washboard abs and buff physique.

Going shirtless for a dip in the water, Hugh revealed his biceps as he went for a swim after enjoying a gym session with a friend.

Moments earlier, the Aussie actor was seen leaving a nearby Bondi gym following an intense workout.

He wore a grey singlet, black shorts and wrapped a towel around his neck as he left the fitness centre before his swim.

Hugh returned to Australia for the Christmas season with his children, Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19.

The sighting comes after reports that Jackman's ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness is said to have been 'seething with rage' over the Hollywood star's rumoured new romance with Sutton Foster.

Hugh and Deb, 69, confirmed their separation after almost three decades together in September 2023, and he is now said to be dating Broadway star Sutton, 49.

It has been claimed that Deb was enraged at being 'the last to know' about the relationship.

According to Radaronline, Deb is angry in particular at Hugh's close friend Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively, who both allegedly 'kept quiet' about the rumoured romance.

'They kept their lips sealed out of loyalty to Hugh,' a source told the publication.
'Now she is seething with rage over being the last to know, Deb feels blindsided. She has a memory like a steel trap and isn't afraid to use it!'
'Debs feels cheated by all three because someone could have told her what was happening and they all chose to keep their mouths shut,' they added.

However, Deb was allegedly 'not keen on the idea' with a source claiming that she does not want a 'blended' family Christmas.

'It's a delicate balancing act and he feels like if anyone is going to spend less time with the kids this year, it's him,' they added.

The insider said Hugh and Sutton are determined to make their relationship work and are keeping things low-key at the moment.

Hugh and Sutton took on the roles of Harold Hill and Marian Paroo in The Music Man, which ran from February 2022 to January 2023 at the Winter Garden Theatre in Manhattan.

The pair have attended public events together, stepping out at the opening night of their show The Music Man on Broadway in February 2022.

'They are 100 percent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,' an insider told the publication.
'They are still together. They go out of their way to hide it, but it's common knowledge.'
