Hugh Jackman surprises Marvel boss with special gift

Hugh Jackman gave Marvel boss Kevin Feige a memorable and humorous tribute at his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony on Thursday, celebrating the man who played a pivotal role in making him a global superstar. 

Jackman known for his iconic role as Wolverine, was on hand to honor Feige who was being celebrated with a star on the Walk of Fame.

He presented Feige with a $15 voucher for a popular steakhouse chain, adding a light-hearted touch to the evening. 

In a video shared on Facebook, he struggled to maintain a straight face while delivering the cheeky gift. 

"I honestly would go with you, but I’m kind of a massive movie star now, so it wouldn’t look good for me," Jackman quipped.

During his speech, Jackman reflected on his long-standing relationship with Feige, revealing that he had known the Marvel Studios president since his audition for Wolverine in the X-Men movie 25 years ago. 

Speaking to a star-studded crowd that included Ryan Reynolds and Chris Pratt, Jackman’s tribute highlighted the deep respect and gratitude he holds for his role in his career.

Jackman delivered a touching tribute to Marvel's Kevin Feige during his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony on Thursday, marking a full-circle moment in their long-standing relationship. 

"Out of the blue, Kevin pulls over at a restaurant," Jackman reminisced. "By this point, we all knew I wasn’t getting the part—the waiter, Kevin, and I. But Kevin insisted, I want to buy you a steak." 

Jackman described how this gesture of kindness left a lasting impression on him, saying, "I’m an actor, and free steak? I’m in. Kevin took the time to take care of me, and I will never forget it."
