Watch Hugh Jackman jump into stranger’s car to escape chaotic mob of fans

He’s on the move.

Hugh Jackman jumped into a stranger’s car to get away from a chaotic mob of fans in New York City.

According to a video obtained by Page Six, the “Wolverine” actor staged a crazy getaway while outside of his forthcoming show, “From New York with Love,” at Radio City Music Hall on Wednesday.

While Jackman was swarmed by a crowd of anxious fans who wanted selfies and autographs, he flagged down a random black car.

After the driver told the Marvel star they were headed to 6th Ave, he hopped in ready to go, along with his bodyguard.

Though the driver was not part of a rideshare service such as Lyft or Uber, Jackman seemingly did not care, as he evaded the mob of fans.

For the swift getaway, the “Les Misérables” star looked casual, wearing a blue button-up shirt and jeans.

Jackman’s one-man show is set to kick off on Friday; however, it is being reported that ticket sales are “struggling.”

Per the Daily Mail, the show, which debuted on Broadway in January, has slashed ticket prices to $98 for Friday’s show and $60 for Saturday’s matinee.

The best seats in the house are available for $212, which is a bargain compared to Paul Simon’s nearby show at the Beacon Theatre, where tickets are selling for up to $680.

The decreased prices come just weeks after Jackman’s estranged wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, filed for divorce from the actor nearly two years after they announced their split.

On May 23, the Australian actress, 69, reportedly submitted the paperwork in New York after she and Jackman, 56, reached an agreement behind the scenes.

The exes tied the knot in April 1996 and share two adopted kids: son Oscar, 25, and daughter Ava, 19.

Jackman is now dating 50-year-old Sutton Foster, whom the “Logan” star went public with a year after his separation from Furness.
