The Jackman Family

Amazing how the Daily Mail cobbles together "insights" on the new Hugh Jackman.

*Attending the new play Stranger Things : The First Shadow) ( says it is produced by Sonia Friedman)

*Notes that he now has to go by himself ( saying he usually attends with Deb) - hmmm... there were times when Hugh would attend solo in the past or even escort Pat Schoenfeld.

*Analyzes the new Gingerbread House cake he received. Actually it was sent to Chelsea and Deb/ the kids placed it in a prominent place by the untrimmed tree near the windows at the Nouvel Bldg and where the Ryan R cutout was hiding last year. Hmmm... who sent a photo of it to Hugh? Are they waiting for someone before trimming the tree?

At least, they have more photos --

With Sonia Friedman, producer of STRANGER THINGS : THE FIRST SHADOW

Sonia was also the producer of THE RIVER. She and Hugh collaborated on reducing the prices and gave us the famous RIVERBANK seats in The River.

Someone might have scribbled that red Heart(?) on his jacket?

Not sure if you’re kidding but that’s annotated on the posted picture

[jo]

I thought maybe one of his stylists put it there or whatever.

I thought it was amusing.

Ruby is right, it was put on the photo, not directly on the jacket.

[jo]

Lol - that was what I meant - on the photo. What I found amusing was that Hugh picked the photo with the heart symbol to upload...not the photo when he posed for it originally.

This is what you wrote:

Made it sound like someone actually wrote on his jacket. 😉

[jo]

I didn't come across correctly but I was secretly amused that Hugh published not the original photo but something that has already been remarked on. Didn't put it correctly -- will do better next time. LOL!

He must have visited his Uncle who resides near Lake Geneva (Thonon les Bains) on the French side.

[jo]

I wonder if he is also visiting his Mum for the holidays ( Norwich, UK)?

And maybe fly back to NYC for the rest fo the break?


JO

[jo]

How was he able to get those shots? From a plane as it approached the place?

Or a train?

He must have visited his Uncle who resides near Lake Geneva (Thonon les Bains) on the French side.

Unfortunately, Hugh's uncle (Chris' brother) who lived and raised his family in that area passed away several years back. But his aunt, whom he referenced during promo for The Son, must still live there.

[jo]

Thanks for the update.

Hugh must be close to them ( he has French cousins?) as this is his second visit while filming the Deadpool&Wolverine movie. I do remember that when he did a tour of southern France before taking on the role in Les Miserables, that he mentioned his uncle coming along...same when the Jackmans did a short trip to St Tropez. But Hugh never spoke his bits of French with a French accent

He was last in Thonon only last Nov 27.

Haute-Savoie: actor Hugh Jackman seen in Thonon-les-Bains, where he has family
He even took a selfie with the staff of a pastry shop

Australian actor Hugh Jackman, known for playing the mutant superhero Wolverine in the X-Men saga, or more recently starring in The Son, directed by Florian Zeller, is once again in Chablais. He even took a selfie with the staff of the Thonon pastry shop La Cerise sur le Gâteau, where he drank a coffee.



Clearly a fan of French pastries, Jackman also slipped another local bakery into one of his Instagram stories.

His last "known" visit to Thonon was in August 2014. And if they are repeated, it's because the 55-year-old actor has family ties in the Chablais. "My uncle married a French woman from Thonon," he told Paris Match magazine in 2008. A French auntie, a former English teacher at a high school in the city, whom her nephew describes as "a real cinephile".

Btw, Thonon Les Bains is on the share of Lake Geneva ( known in France as Lac Leman). Thonon is located in France.

Hugh visiting one of the shops at ThononLesFeeriques!

He even signed the Lego box for the storekeeper's son.

It looks like he also bought some scented candles.

I guess this was where Hugh must have been partly wandering around --

It looks like the second store on the right was where he bought the scented candles --

His presence is well-received!

Hugh Jackman confuses Geneva and Thonon-les-Bains
The Australian actor shared photos from his time on the shores of Lake Geneva on Instagram. While on the French side, he wrote that he was in Geneva.

On December 18, 2023, Hugh Jackman mixed things up a bit when he shared on Instagram a carousel of photos from his recent visit to the shores of Lake Geneva. In the caption, the 55-year-old actor wrote: "A lovely weekend in Geneva with family and friends, the Christmas market and lots of cheese." Problem: the man who will reprise his role as Wolverine in the third installment of "Deadpool" was actually in Thonon-les-Bains.

The presence of the Australian on the French side of the lake was confirmed by the manager of one of the stalls at the Christmas market, "Thonon Les Féeriques." Hugh Jackman came to buy me candles," she wrote on Instagram the same day. She was lucky enough to have a friend who immortalized this moment, as evidenced by the photo she shared on the social network.

"When I see him in front of my stand, I see a man who looks like Hugh Jackman, but I am convinced that it is not him, rather someone who looks very much like him (what would an international star do in Thonon-les-Bains in front of my stand?). Our trades lasted 5 minutes and were limited to candles (which is normal since that's what I sell). So he chooses two candles, I ask him if he wants one bag or two, and he tells me that one will be enough (yes, yes, I gave Hugh Jackman only one bag). He pays by card, I hand him my payment terminal, and the device asks him for a signature. So he signs on my cell phone (but yes, it's amazing, Hugh Jackman signed with his own hand on my cell phone). He thanked me, took a picture of the candles, and left," she said.
