The Les Misérables star used the Hollywood premiere of the film a month ago to make his new relationship with actress Sutton Foster red carpet official.

The two performers have been photographed at several events, but this marked their red carpet debut since reports of their romance began circulating in 2024.

Jackman, who split from fellow Australian star Deborra-lee Furness in 2023, had his arm around Foster as they posed for photos at the Hollywood premiere of his new movie.

The pair, who have known one another for years through musical theatre and were co-stars in Broadway's The Music Man, wore complementary black outfits.

Jackman and Foster, 50, have not directly confirmed their long-speculated romance, and generally keep out of the spotlight.

However, after plenty of speculation over the nature of their relationship, they were photographed holding hands and later kissing in Los Angeles in January.
