It is with a video unveiled on his Instagram account that the 53-year-old actor made his contamination public. Masked, his features drawn but nonetheless very calm, the star explained the situation: ” Hello everyone, I wanted to tell you myself. This morning I tested positive for Covid-19. For now, the symptoms are those of a cold snap, my throat is a bit sore, my nose is runny, but it’s okay. I’ll do my best to get back on my feet quickly, and as soon as things get better and the lights are green, I will go back on stage. “Ryan Reynolds’ boyfriend also wanted to send a message to his fans:” Please protect yourself, stay healthy and be benevolent ”.
Explosion of contaminations on Broadway
Since December 20, Deborra-Lee Furness’ husband has been pacing the Broadway stage for the musical show The Music man. December 24th, his partner Sutton Foster tested positive and was to be replaced at a moment’s notice by his understudy Kathy Voytko. However, it seems probable that Sutton Foster is the cause of the contamination of the dad of Ava and Oscar who had recently published a snapshot of his vaccine booster.
The Hugh Jackman case is unfortunately far from an isolated case on Broadway where for a few days contaminations due to the Omicron variant explode. The representations of the pieces Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Where Hamilton in particular had to be canceled. Despite the cancellations, Broadway League President Charlotte St Martin has said there is no question of Broadway’s curtains being lowered at this time.
On Instagram, Hugh Jackman’s post was greeted with concern by fans who have already seen the star battle skin cancer and relapse. “Come back quickly”, “take care of yourself” was it recommended to him while virtual soups and hugs were offered to him. Enough to allow the interpreter of Wolverine to quickly … recover the hair of the beast!
