Binger

Hugh Jackman may be known for his trademark claws and the visceral swag he pulls out when he plays Wolverine, but the actor is as much a Marvel star as he is a theater kid. Having made his big return to the Marvel universe last year with his buddy and Marvel Jesus, Ryan Reynolds

, the actor is now devoting himself to the stage. However, fans on tour got to witness both versions of the actor recently as he pulled out a surprise move. 

From a sob-inducing emotional ordeal to a fun-packed jazz number, the possibilities of what you may come across while attending a Broadway show are endless. But even for the ever-so-happening event, a Hugh Jackman jump roping to NSYNC’s iconic ‘Bye Bye Bye’ is unexpected.

Jackman proved that the stage is truly his playground as he effortlessly jumped to the beat of NSYNC’s iconic track. Moreover, for fans who had witnessed Deadpool & Wolverine

, this seemed like an ode to the movie that in itself had seemed like a tribute to NSYNC’s musical greatness.

Firstly, fans were just spellbound by Jackman’s stamina as he jumped it out like there was no one watching and did it all without a single blunder.

Other fans, however, were confused as they tried to make sense of what was going on. What remained consistent throughout were the Wolverine jokes and respect for Hugh Jackman for being able to pull something like this off.
