Hugh Jackman Two-Hander Roles

[jo]

It has been something that I have thought about for sometime now -- that Hugh does very well in two-hander roles. He delivers excellent portrayals while not trying to upstage his co-stars.

A two-hander is a movie with two main characters ...

A two-hander is a movie where there are two main characters of roughly equal importance to the story, and whose arcs are given roughly equal screen-time.

Which one is your favorite two-hander role for Hugh ?


*With Russell Crowe ( Les Miserables)

*With Christian Bale ( The Prestige)

*With Ewan McGregor ( Deception)

*With Liev Schreiber ( Origins:Wolverine)

*With Jake Gyllenhaal ( Prisoners)

*With Daniel Craig ( A Steady Rain)


Not sure if roles vis-à-vis a young co-star count ( but artistically-speaking, they are like two-handers) --

*With Dakota Hoyo ( Real Steel)

*With Levi Miller ( Pan)


and the latest one --

*With Taron Egerton ( Eddie the Eagle)

Here's the screen test with Taron, to test their chemistry on the big screen. Matthew Vaughn ( who said he persuaded Hugh to take the role) narrates --

I finally bought this DVD yesterday (never saw the movie)!
