Hugh Jackman recently gave fans an intimate glimpse into his current life behind the scenes following his separation from Deborra Lee Furness

On Tuesday, the 55-year-old star took to Instagram to showcase a quirky aspect of his superstar life – a Marvel-themed bathroom while filming "Deadpool 3.".

In his social media post, the celebrated Australian actor renowned for his role as Wolverine in the "Deadpool" franchise, shared an image of his toilet, uniquely set against a backdrop of tiles adorned with comic book panels. 

These tiles feature iconic Marvel heroes, including Superman, the Green Lantern, and Spider-Man. Notably, one of the tiles captures Wolverine, the character Hugh famously portrays, with his trademark claws menacingly extended.

Hugh also posted a video on his Instagram stories, proudly displaying the bathroom and remarking, "You never know where he's going to show up," referencing his Wolverine character's unexpected appearance in the bathroom décor.
