Hugh Jackman cuts a very animated figure at the US Open tennis

He received rave reviews for his performance in musical theatre film The Greatest Showman.

And Hugh Jackman put on an animated display at day one of the US Open tennis championships in New York on Tuesday.

Accompanied by wife Deborra-lee Furness, the 49-year-old actor made a number of playful facial expressions. 

Hugh dressed casually in a navy polo shirt and white shorts, which he accessorised with silver-rimmed aviator sunglasses and a statement watch.

Seated next to Hugh was wife Deborra-lee Furness, 62, who sported a crisp white blouse and trousers, and had a pair of designer sunglasses perched on top of her blonde locks.

The A-list couple were seated behind American Vogue’s Anna Wintour and Roger Federer’s mother Lynette Federer, who dutifully watched her tennis star son in action.

Earlier this month, The Daily Telegraph suggested that Hugh, who has always rented in Sydney’s east, has his eye on a property in Dover Heights after Deborra-lee was ‘sighted’ at a recent inspection.   

However a representative for Hugh has since told Daily Mail Australia: ‘The Jackmans are not purchasing a property in the area.’
