Ben Affleck’s Ex-Wife Jennifer Garner Loved His Batman Physique

“He looks pretty good. It’s a little bit like, ‘Whoa, who are you?’. It feels like I’m having an affair. But I don’t mind, I’m not complaining.”

Much like how Hugh Jackman’s wife sees it, Garner also pointed out what it was like having an affair because of just how different he looked. She couldn’t help but fawn over how incredible he was looking as godlike. If Henry Cavill could be intimidated by his physique, then no wonder she was mesmerized.

Hugh Jackman’s Wife Is Not Fond Of His Wolverine Physique

Hugh Jackman has worked extremely hard to get the ideal physique for Wolverine. From a restricting and gruesome diet to gymming and working out extensively, he has put his all in when it comes to being in shape for his iconic role.

“She gets very annoyed. She says, ‘A husband’s job is to be fat and flabby and make me look fabulous.’ She said I wasn’t living up to my end of the bargain.’”

Although the entire world is fond of it, his wife has her own complaints regarding the matter. Jackman revealed that his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness gets very annoyed whenever he works towards his Wolverine physique. Her argument is valid to an extent because she focused on how Jackman’s physique can very well outshine hers and when both stand next to each other, the focus would obviously be on him and not her. She loves it regardless but the annoyance often comes and goes.

Hugh Jackman’s Wife Gets To Have Affairs Every Few Months

“’The best thing about being married to an actor is that I get to have an affair every few months,’” Jackman recalled Furness once telling him. “It’s a different kind of look all the time. But I’ve got to be honest, mate, being in a 3-D film on a 40-foot screen is pretty good motivation for being in shape.”

What she meant was how his physical transformation makes him look like a different person on a regular basis. Jackman further commented on how he has enough motivation to keep him in shape no matter how much he would not want to do so. Playing a character as great as Wolverine and that too on the big screen is enough for him to keep in his best shape.
