   Hugh Jackman promotes “Les Miserables,” gets very emotional when talking about his family

A talented actor and just as talented a singer, a gorgeous man and an even more gorgeous husband and father, Hugh Jackman is also a softie at heart, as his recent interview on 60 Minutes can confirm.

Check it out below – it’s 12 minutes you won’t regret having spent here.

After talking about his challenging role in “Les Miserables,” for which he’s tipped for an Oscar at next year’s ceremony, Hugh talks about his wife and their children.

They have been married for 16 years and Hugh has discovered the secret to a happy family life, he says, tearing up a bit: “it’s always about the family,” it’s never about the work or the Hollywood career.

The video also includes a brief look at Hugh’s workout to play Wolverine in the new film (and at his incredibly muscular arms, I daresay), and more details about his life as an aspiring actor.

Even if you’re not a diehard fan, this video is a must-see, if only to show an actor / celebrity the kind you hardly see in Hollywood these days.
