Charlie Rose didn't record for me on the 24th. Did anyone else get the episode?

I don't know if anyone's posted that the Critics' Choice Awards will be aired on the CW on January 11th or not, so sorry if this is a repost.

VIDEO: Sneak Peek - Hugh Jackman Chats HOUDINI on 'Inside the Actor's Studio'



Thursday, January 31, 2013; 12:01 PM - by TV News Desk

Bravo shines the spotlight on multi-talented star, and 2013 Oscar nominee, Hugh Jackman, as he returns to the "Inside The Actors Studio" stage for a second time, premiering Wednesday, February 13 at 8PM ET/PT. Discussing the upcoming musical Houdini, the Broadway vet shared, "Houdini, I gotta tell ya, is the most thrilling experience of my life, because I have done many musicals, but I've never been involved with the creation of a musical." Check out the sneak peek below!

In the episode, Jackman sings his "heart song" from "Happy Feet," performs a tap dance number, and shares some of his acting secrets. Host James Lipton picks up where they left off nine years ago, recounting the last decade of Jackman's career. I

Jackman's appeal knows no bounds, as his many recognitions include a Golden Globe award for his performance in "LES MISERABLES," a Special Tony award honoring his work as a performer and humanitarian, and a Primetime Emmy award for his hosting role at the 2004 Emmy Awards. He was recently nominated for an Academy Award for actor in a leading role in the film "LES MISERABLES." Lipton asks Jackman about his roles in such memorable films as "Happy Feet," "The Prestige," the "X-Men" franchise, and most recently, "LES MISERABLES."

Quotables from the episode:

"...those rare moments when something happens where you just feel you're part of something much greater than yourself...." -Hugh Jackman on why he loves to act

"Wolverine's not an animal, that's just like, the character name." -Hugh Jackman's misunderstanding of the term "Wolverine"

"I want to feel how I felt when Robert DeNiro took his shirt off in "Cape Fear," I want to go, 'holy sh*t, don't screw with this guy.'" -How Hugh wanted to the audiences to react to Wolverine

"Please, you know I'm passionate about this,but I have to put my kids to bed." -Hugh Jackman on why he asked Tom Hooper to leave his four-hour "LES MISERABLES" audition

"'...this will demand more of you than anything you've ever done before and yes, you can do it." -Words of wisdom from Hugh's wife during a moment of weakness while filming "LES MISERABLES."

Sorry, it won't play for me ( yet)

I wonder about this --

>>>Discussing the upcoming musical Houdini, the Broadway vet shared, "Houdini, I gotta tell ya, is the most thrilling experience of my life, because I have done many musicals, but I've never been involved with the creation of a musical."<<<

I assume the interview must have been done in the recent past ( although his facial hair has not been as thick as his more recent public appearances). But was Sorkin's departure already known or had it been brewing at that time? Or will that part of the interview be edited when the show is finally aired?

This is fantastic news
Must have been taped in Dec during Les Mis media blitz

That "acting lesson" in which Hugh explains how JVJ fights off his emotions while acting/singing angrily had me mesmerized. He is so invested and knowledgeable about the process and his craft, it just annoys me to the nth degree when people don't take him for a "serious" actor.

As James Lipton said..."Now that's an acting lesson!" Very moving demonstration indeed. Can't wait to see the whole show.

Just like for you, Jo, it's not available for me either. Drat. But on the plus side, February is looking like it will be "Hugh-rich", hehehe: Leno Feb. 4, then Actor's Studio (though it will probably not premiere on the 13th in Latinamerica, but some time later), and ... FINALLY... Les Mis opens down here, supposedly the 14th, just in time for Valentine's Day!

Jay Leno announced Friday that Hugh will be on the Tonight Show on Monday, February 4. It's supposed to be a new show, not a repeat. :-)

Alma

Hugh is in LA for the Oscar Nominees Luncheon that same day, so the Leno appearance is not unlikely.

Jo

[birchie]

I will certainly be watching Leno to see Hugh tonight!!
I also want to add that the BAFTAs are on BBC America on Sunday (10th) at 8:00pm.

[mamaleh]

Looking forward to both. Doesn't matter that the Grammys are televised at the same time as the BAFTAS; I haven't been a fan of the former for a number of years now. Uck!

Really hoping Hugh pulls off a coup Sunday night. I remember last year's started with an entertaining salute to 50 years of James Bond (the Academy Awards are a bit late on that, hmmm?) and of course also featured that new comedic duo, Jacko and Rusty.

Hoping for a return of that dynamic duo.

Academy live blogging the luncheon today so some good pictures should come out of that oscar.go.com/blogs/oscar-news/nominee-luncheon-live-blog

I'm recording the Grammys only because Paul McCartney is up for 3 of them.

Actually last year sometime was the 50th anniversary of Bond (1962) and I guess this is the 1st time since then that the Oscars have been on.

For overseas fans who had no access to the Inside the Actors Studio preview clips, someone was kind enough to upload the Acting Lesson clip to You Tube --

I have always thought Hugh has an immense gift when it comes to crying scenes. Les Miserables and The Fountain were proof of that! But the most impressive to me was when he could cry at will ( onstage!) towards the end of A STEADY RAIN. Night after night ( 5 times for me), I could see him summon the tears at will -- and it was not even a major emotional scene - it was a quiet one where the emotions rise to the surface unknowingly.
