He's normally the picture of Hollywood hotness, but Hugh Jackman looked rather dastardly on Tuesday.

The live-action fantasy based on J. M. Barrie's classic children's tale is directed by Joe Wright, and is currently being filmed in London.
The legendary story centres on an orphan boy who is spirited away to the magical Neverland, where he finds both fun and dangers, and ultimately discovers his destiny.
Though Blackbeard doesn't appear in the Disney animation, Wright's version of the story is actually a prequel to Barrie's novel, with Jackman's character the central villain.
