While chatting with the host Stephen Colbert on The Late Show, Jackman recalled the advice he received from Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. Kellen told Hugh that sometimes while shooting for a movie he might feel uncomfortable, but advised him to just go with the flow as it would look great on the screen. Jackman also shared one of the best pieces of life advice that he received from Patrick Stewart which he and his wife still follow.

Hugh said that Stewart advised him to take out time for himself before he started his day. Jackman explained that Patrick would wake up at 4 am if he had a 5 am schedule and read a book. Jackman said that Stewart stressed that it was vital to take that time for one’s self at the beginning as the day too easily gets away. The Greatest Showman Alive actor added that he and his wife Deborra still follow that advice and drink a cup of tea or coffee in the morning while reading a book.
