He came from Australia but became one of Hollywood's biggest names - starring in blockbusters like X-Men, The Greatest Showman and Les Miserables.
A less well-known aspect of Hugh Jackman's story may surprise his global army of fans however: not only was he born into a completely English family but he still has relatives in the UK living very ordinary lives, including a sibling who looks strikingly like him.
Now the Daily Mail has, for the first time, pieced together the full story of the Jackman family - including one of the strangest divorce arrangements you will ever hear of.
The story begins in 1967 when a young couple, Cambridge-educated accountant, Christopher Jackman, from Bromley, and his young bride Grace Greenwood, from Norwich, decided to move to Australia.
The couple, who had married in 1960, and had been living in Croydon, are believed to have already had four children, Zoe, Ian, Ralph and Sonia, when they signed up for the famous 'Ten Pound Poms' scheme.
