Hugh Jackman, the former Sexiest Man of the Year according to People Magazine, star of “Wolverine” and award winning Broadway singer is starring in a new movie and DreamWorks is conducting a worldwide talent search to cast his son.
The film, “Real Steel” stars Jackman as a former boxer who teams up with his son Max to train a robot. Or something like that, it sounds kind of weird.
The role of “Max” is up for grabs and the production is looking for a 10-14 year old boy described as “a street-smart, tough, charming kid with a hard, untrusting outer shell which hides a warm enthusiastic spirit beneath. He is a complicated, strong-willed and resourceful boy.”
Here are the details according to the press release:
DreamWorks Studios has launched a nationwide casting search to fill a lead role in its upcoming movie “Real Steel,” it was announced today by DreamWorks Studios.
