Hugh Jackman explains his hideous new haircut

After being kidnapped by two criminals during birth, Chappie becomes the adopted son in a strange and dysfunctional family. Chappie is preternaturally gifted, one of a kind, a prodigy. He also happens to be a robot. This is the first trailer in HD

ONE of Hollywood's most handsome leading men, Hugh Jackman, 46, may have to give up that mantle, at least for now anyway.

In the upcoming sci-fi flick, Chappie, Jackman is sporting one of the worst cinematic 'do's' in recent history (perhaps with the exception of Javier Bardem's villainous roles in No Country for Old Men or Skyfall).

"Well, the first job I ever had where I met my wife (the TV show Correlli) I had a mullet. So it brought back some nice flashbacks," he recalls.

But was Deborra-Lee Furness, nearly two decades later, happy to see the return of the famed mullet?

"No, is the short answer." He laughs. "But she always says that being married to me is kind of fun, it's like having an affair every few months. I always look different so it spices it up a bit. But she hated that I had to get my hair dyed, and you could tell my hair was dyed because it was peroxide. It had those tips," he laughs.

"It was bad and she found it so distasteful; she has a real problem with men who dye their hair, so that was tough."

Jackman just finished up his stint on Broadway in The River, for which he earned rave reviews. He's currently gearing up for a few film projects including The Greatest Showman on Earth, and an untitled Wolverine sequel. How does he manage his time between his family life raising two kids: Oscar, 14, and Ava, 10, and a busy career?

"Basically, we try to make the family a priority, so whatever is needed. But I'm not as busy as 99 per cent of the working population. I get periods of time off. And when I do work, for example, I just did four months on The River, so I'd go to work at 6:30 at night and I'd be home at 9," he says.

"It's not hellish. I love my job. It doesn't ever feel like hard work for me but the hard thing is balancing it and I think that's the trick for most modern parents. And it's also about balancing the kids' lives, which is a challenge, because they are so busy, too."

Famously easy going, you'd be hard pressed to find a co-star who doesn't wax lyrical about Jackman's famed charm and kind nature. He laughs. "Do I ever lose it?" he says, repeating the question. "Absolutely. Nothing really touches my emotional buttons more than my kids. I think any parent understands that and it kind of shocks me actually." A frown appears. "I've gone through my whole adult life, from when I left school until my kids were born, and honestly, I don't remember ever feeling that kind of level of frustration and anger that kids can bring out in you." He pauses. "And when I get hungry I can lose it."

In New York's fashionable neighbourhood of Soho, Jackman has returned to his regular handsome self.

Chappie, also starring Sigourney Weaver and South Africa's Sharlto Copley (District 9) is set in the near future about a rogue police robot who's designed to feel emotions and think for himself. Jackman, who adopts a broader Aussie accent for the film than his natural intonation, plays an engineer who is opposed to artificial intelligence.

Does Jackman possess any innovative talents in the world of computers?

"Negative," he replies. "I couldn't be an inventor. I struggle as it is to understand what's already been invented but I love it. As long as someone can show me how to do it, it's great. I am not a troglodyte and I am not someone who fears it," he explains. "I generally see possibilities in most of the stuff."

Managing to keep several plates spinning, he has added another title to his resume, coffee entrepreneur. Founder of Laughing Man Coffee & Tea, he currently enjoys his new business venture which boasts two coffee shops in New York, the flagship situated in the chic Manhattan district of Tribeca. He says of his inspiration, "Deb and I took a trip to Ethiopia a few years ago and met a coffee farmer. And because of my desire to give back, that's where the idea started. The profits go back to charity, helping the farmers. So, if you come into the shop you have a good coffee and at the same time, you're giving back. It's a win win."

Jackman has partnered with Keurig Green Mountain. "I invite you to try it," he grins. "We have the number one per-square retail space in Manhattan. We beat the Apple Store. There are lines around the corner, it's unbelievable, it's nuts."

With a reported net worth of US$100 million, he has somewhat of a green thumb when it comes to finances.

"I have never been in debt, ever, in my life," he declares. "In fact, I have an innate fear of being in debt. I don't like the burden of it and I don't have strong shoulders for that kind of thing. My wife says I'm a saver, but I'm also randomly very extravagant. So I don't know what that says about me, but I'm not very materialistic."

With so many accolades to his name such as Golden Globe Best Actor for Les Miserables (2013) and a Tony for his portrayal of Peter Allen in Boy from Oz (2004) how would Jackman like to be remembered? "As The Sexiest Man Alive," he deadpans, referring to the People magazine title in 2008. "No, I'm kidding. I haven't really asked myself that question but if I could be remembered I'd like it to be as a good dad and a good husband," he says. "I'd be happy with that."
