Hugh Jackman<\/a> was “a hot mess” while filming ‘The Son’.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hugh Jackman has admitted to suffering anxiety<\/p>\n

The 54-year-old actor stars alongside Laura Dern<\/a>, Vanessa Kirby, and Sir Anthony Hopkins in the new drama film, and Hugh has admitted to struggling throughout the shoot.<\/p>\n

The Hollywood star – who plays a successful lawyer with a teenage son who is suffering from depression – explained: “I certainly realised how vulnerable I was.”<\/p>\n

Hugh admitted that the movie’s subject matter and the return to work following COVID-19 lockdowns caused him to experience “anxiety”.<\/p>\n

The actor’s troubles were compounded by the death of his dad Christopher, who died in September 2021.<\/p>\n

\nExplaining why he didn’t take any time off to grieve his dad’s death, Hugh told the BBC: “My father actually never missed a day of work in his life. I did imagine what my father would say and he would say, ‘Go to work’.”<\/p>\n

\nHugh actually suffered sleepless nights throughout the shoot and he continues to see a therapist.<\/p>\n

\nThe actor is now encouraging other people to seek help if they’re experiencing similar issues.<\/p>\n

\nHe said: “There’s a little part of the old school part of my brain [that thinks], ‘Well, that’s up to you to work out.’ If you need to go to a doctor, for whatever reason, your foot, your mental health, you know, you work that out.<\/p>\n

\n“But I think it certainly would be a sign from an employer that we understand taking care of the whole person, not just paying them, but taking care of their wellbeing in all forms is really, really important.”<\/p>\n

\nHugh actually believes that mental health issues need to be spoken about more openly.<\/p>\n

\nHe said: “There is a real lack of knowledge and ignorance and shame around the subject and I think it’s something we need to confront, really, really quickly.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
