Hugh Jackman has reflected on the positive that's emerged from the global coronavirus pandemic.

The Wolverine actor, 51, admitted isolation has freed up his schedule and allowed him to reconnect with his family.

"It's re-calibrated what is important," Jackman said in a recent video interview with ET Canada. "In many ways that has been a bonus, quality time that I thought wouldn't happen again."

Jackman is married to Deborra-Lee Furness and the couple share 20-year-old son Oscar Jackman and 15-year-old daughter Ava Jackman.
