Jackman, Craig Shine in Broadway Production

Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig, two of Hollywood’s biggest film actors, have teamed up to star in the Broadway production A Steady Rain, gathering huge audiences for the spectacular show. Australia native Jackman and Englishman Craig put on convincing Chicago accents for their roles in A Steady Rain, which is the story of two childhood friends/policemen, and the comedic production has been a huge crowd-pleaser already, storming onto the Broadway circuit while playing a limited run (A Steady Rain is set to end Dec. 6).

While both Jackman and Craig’s performances have earned rave reviews by critics, the actors took their roles one step further last week, when an audience member’s cell phone kept interrupting the play. Not stepping out of character, the actors reprimanded the cell phone perpetrator, still not missing a beat of the show in the meantime. A Steady Rain is one of the most popular productions currently on the Broadway circuit, and it is Daniel Craig’s Broadway debut. Hugh Jackman, the other star of the show, also appeared in the 2004 Broadway production The Boy from Oz.
