Costar and longtime friend Ryan Reynolds admitted he "couldn’t believe" the Logan star's transformation.
"Just the sheer relentlessness that you dedicated yourself towards stunts, choreography. It was the first time I’d ever seen how invaluable a background in song and dance is when you are doing an action movie," the dad-of-four, 47, raved to Jackman. "You hit your marks in those fight scenes with speed and confidence, the likes of which I have never seen. I don’t care if you were 25, 35, 45 or 55. It was lightning."
Jackman and costar Ryan Reynolds have been friends for over a decade.
