‘2008’s Sexiest Man Alive’ and X-Men star Hugh Jackman joins fellow countrymen ‘Red Curtain Trilogy’ writer/director Baz Luhrmann and co-producer/production designer Catherine Martin in London. By Lisa Keddie.

The Aussies were out in force in London this December to promote the sumptuous new extravaganza from ‘Red Curtain Trilogy’ (Strictly Ballroom (1992), Romeo + Juliet (1996) and Moulin Rouge! (2001)) director, Baz Luhrmann, aptly named Australia. This ’sweeping romantic adventure event film’ sees Jackman as rugged cattleman, Drover, all buffed up to fit his ‘2008’s Sexiest Man Alive’ PEOPLE title, and sending quite a few jaws dropping in the process, trust me.
