Hugh Jackman is one of the most good looking men in the world, but back when he was 14 he had zits. Not your normal zits, but a group of them that made up a V on his forehead. So what’s so bad about that? Well as he let us know on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday, there was a show on TV back then called V and that was how the aliens were identified. So when he went to school the kids would be like “Yo V, welcome to school, man.” and “What up, alien?” And to this day, that is still his nickname.
So if anyone ever tries to remake the miniseries/show again, I don’t think you will get him to star in it. Although if he did, it might negate his nickname because it won’t be as fun calling him that.
BTW I think they got a different V in Australia than we did here in The States because I don’t remember the aliens having Vs on their foreheads, do you?
