Hugh Jackman: Brother-in-law broke his leg being my stunt double

Actor's relative also cracked his wrist and nose

Hugh Jackman: George Clooney Hazed Me Over Sexiest Man
Hugh Jackman stars in Australia

Hugh Jackman’s sister has banned him from using her husband as his stunt double.

The star's relative has broke several bones on the set of the Australian actor's films.

‘My brother-in-law has doubled for me in a few of my movies,’ Hugh tells the Daily Star.

‘It's a weird situation, though, because things can go wrong.

‘One time on Van Helsing he was doubling for me in a scene where I got really thrown about.

'He ended up breaking his leg and I had to phone my sister to explain and say I was sending him home.

'He's cracked his wrist and nose, too. She's not best pleased.’
