About this listen
Hugh Jackman is finishing out 2025 in vintage showman style and headlines. In the past few days, the biggest story is his triumphant return to the New York stage with a marathon 12-concert residency at Radio City Music Hall, titled From New York With Love, which wrapped its final shows on October 4. Variety and Broadway.com both spotlight his career-spanning setlist, which thrilled audiences with musical numbers from The Boy From Oz, The Greatest Showman, The Music Man, and more. There were even “surprises” teased in the official announcement, and clips on social media confirmed that he shared the stage with special guests, including a duet with Kate Hudson on Song Sung Blue, fueling major online buzz as seen in performance videos circulating across Twitter and YouTube. Jackman, never one to shy from a crowd, also revealed the live show in a playful social media video featuring his Deadpool & Wolverine co-star Ryan Reynolds, to huge engagement on all platforms.
Professionally, Jackman’s momentum from Deadpool & Wolverine remains a major narrative, as the film shattered global records and sits as the highest-grossing R-rated movie in history—a career milestone with long-term legacy implications acknowledged in every retrospective of his work. Alongside the concert spectacle, his artistic range expanded further with the digital release of the Audible Original Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes, co-starring Ella Beatty, which Playbill says went live October 9 and is expected to stir critical debate with its provocative content and performance.
Offstage, Jackman has generated headlines both for personal and public appearances. At Brooklyn’s Kings Theatre, he joined longtime friend Ryan Reynolds at the premiere of the John Candy documentary I Like Me, where a band-aid over his left eye sparked mild social media concern. Tabloids from RadarOnline to PerthNow are abuzz over news that Jackman and ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness are engaged in “peace talks,” reportedly to ease post-divorce tensions and co-parent harmoniously. These personal developments are being watched closely as they signal both parties moving forward, especially for their children’s sake.
Socially, Jackman has been less public in his ties with Broadway co-star Sutton Foster after their January coupling made earlier rounds. Industry news also notes Jackman in the realm of collectibles, as his collaborations with renowned comic artist Greg Horn—who’s produced limited edition prints including Jackman’s likeness—are showcased in a high-profile project for Konica Minolta’s PRINTING United Expo.
This synthesis of artistic achievement, blockbuster relevance, personal healing, and media fascination keeps Jackman in the center of both New York’s limelight and global popular culture, capping a week rich in both legacy and new beginnings.
