Hugh Jackman has announced an exciting new project following Deadpool & Wolverine‘s recent success.
The actor reprised his role as the titular blade-wielding superhero in Marvel‘s latest blockbuster, which brought in over $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
Now, he’s taking to the stage to perform a 12-show residency at New York’s Radio City Music Hall in 2025.
From New York With Love will feature some of Jackman’s iconic roles from musicals including The Greatest Showman, Les Misérables, The Boy From Oz and The Music Man, plus some special “surprises” for fans.

The show will begin on January 24, and will continue through select weekends in April, May, June and July, before closing on August 16.
Tickets will be available to purchase via Ticketmaster, with pre-sale starting on Tuesday, October 15. General sale opens on Friday, October 18.
Jackman shared the news in a video posted to his Instagram account on Wednesday (October 9).
“A little over two years ago, Ryan [Reynolds] sat in this very seat and announced to the world that I’d be coming back for Deadpool & Wolverine,” he began.
“It was the time of my life. Ryan and I had such a great adventure together. And I’ve been wondering what comes next…”

As Reynolds casually walked past in the background, Jackman asked: “Hey Ryan, do you want to come to one of my live performances at Radio City Music Hall?”
“Wait, you’re going to be like singing and dancing and joking live? Am I going to be in it? I’ll break out the eyeliner!” Reynolds excitedly responded off camera.
“Absolutely!” Jackman replied, while shaking his head and whispering to the camera: “This is my time.”
It’s been five years since Jackman’s last one-man show, titled The Man. The Music. The Show, which showcased material from The Greatest Showman with a live orchestra.
He also hosted a concert residency at New York’s Broadhurst Theatre in 2011, which saw the actor perform a host of Broadway and Hollywood musical numbers.
From New York With Love will run on select weekends from January 24, 2025 to August 16, 2025 at Radio City Music Hall in New York.
