Hugh Jackman Was Molested While Making “X-Men,” Says Anna Paquin.

“She ran through the engine for the first time and never complained,” the actress recalled her close friends. Anna Paquin and Hugh Jackman were born while working on the first X. fast-male friend film; the actress even helps pull a cigar out of her teeth when her fists are full – with nails.

Oscar-winner Paquin closed Jess Cagel’s show on SiriusXM on Wednesday, talking about the two becoming best friends when they opened the franchise in 2000, which would help fuel the comic book craze.

“Hugh is the closest person to me because I have all my scenes with him,” Pakin, who played mischievously, told Cagle and co-host Julia Cunningham. “He’s still a wonderful, compassionate person.” And because they are friends, Pakin admits to feeling bad about his physique as a werewolf in the film.

“He was pushed through the engine for the first time and never complained,” he said. “The temperature was minus 40 degrees, and he was thrown back by a building over and over again. And he still has time to be a good normal person.”

Their decision to leave Fixer Upper in 2017 at the height of their popularity – and attract an average of 16.6 million viewers per week to HGTV – turned them into free agents and inspired a parade of deep-pocket admirers. They went with the CEO of Discovery Inc. Next year’s David Zaslav – the only one to offer not just a show or roster but an entire network that’s also being built from scratch in central Texas.

The actress was delighted too and remembered having to help Jackman with his character’s signature cigar when the werewolf claws came out. “I had to pull a cigarette out of his teeth because he couldn’t do it with his fingernails [without] injuring himself.”
