Here are a few pics of Hugh Jackman on the set of the Baz Luhrmann epic movie Australia in order to re-shoot some scenes for the film which is due for release this November. Normally, re-shoots this late in the game might hint at trouble for the film but my guess is that Hugh just likes dressing up and playing cowboy:

RIDING high at Fox Studios, Hugh Jackman was back in the saddle yesterday – trimmed of his Wolverine beard and swapping hats to play his part in the upcoming Australia blockbuster. With co-star Nicole Kidman making a low-key return to the set as a working mum for the first time, with baby Sunday Rose and a nanny in tow, Jackman took centre stage filming “pick-up” clips for the movie’s final edit. Having just holidayed on the Italian Riviera, not to mention getting his X-Men flick in the can, Jackman has been a busy leading man since he last donned the Akubra. But grabbing the reins again, with the help of a few pointers from the film’s handlers, Jackman impressed onlookers with his easy-riding style.

Oh yeah, he deffo likes playing cowboy. While I prefer my Hugh Jackman with a lot less clothing, I think he makes a pretty hawt cowpoke. Am I wrong?
