On Wednesday, Hugh Jackman took to Instagram to post a shirtless mirror selfie showcasing the toned physique he achieved for Deadpool & Wolverine.

The 55-year-old Australian actor showed off his muscles, posing in a bathroom in a pair of Under Armor tracksuit pants. 

The Aussie captioned his post: “I am grateful.”

Fans of Jackman tended to agree with his remark, with many users commenting “me too” under his post. 

To go along with the steamy selfie, he also included an audio recording within the post that revealed how he was able to define his abs and physique in order to get back into his Wolverine character for the first time since 2017.

In the past, Jackman was asked if he had had to train harder as a middle-aged man. To this question, he responded, “Honestly, I just wanted to take a second to say, ‘Yeah, I had to turn up, and I had to do those deadlifts, and I had to eat those meals.'”

While it is clear the star put in some serious effort on his own, he was quick to credit his trainer, Beth Lewis, for helping him get into better shape.

In his post, Jackman claimed that Lewis “never makes me overwork; she made me realize that I had been overworking in the past.”
