People Magazine have finally come to their senses and realised what a lot of us have known for some time, Hugh Jackman is the Sexiest Man Alive! The Drover has claimed the prestigious title for their 2008 issue and it couldn’t come at a better or more appropriate time for Australia.
Moviegoers heading to the cinema after November 26th will get to see the splendour that is Hugh Jackman for themselves and having seen the film last Tuesday australiamovie.net can assure the punters that this man is more than eye candy!
Additionally, be sure to keep an eye out for the latest edition of Italian Vanity Fair (shown right) which features some very raw and rugged drover-esque shots of Hugh.

The CNN network have aired another great feature on Australia. This time as part of the Scene By Scene documentary.
Scene by Scene is a groundbreaking two part documentary, about the diverse and vibrant film industry across the Asia Pacific region.
The 7 minute segment on Australia featured a candid Luhrmann talking about aspects of filming on location, and the very real affects it had on cast and crew. Not only are we treated to Luhrmann’s insights, but we’re also given a glance at a new scene featuring dialogue with David Wenham and passionate embrace between our two leads Drover and Sarah. “They’re damn sexy together. I want burning passion…and they’re on fire,” comments Luhrmann when talking about Jackman and Kidman’s on screen chemistry.
Check your local listings for re-runs of Scene By Scene on CNN, or visit our multimedia page to download the video.

A scene from “Australia” introduced exclusively for BigPond Movies by Hugh Jackman. The pressure mounts between Lady Sarah Ashley and the Drover as they discuss Nullah’s welfare.
Another Scene from Australia, in which the Drover gather’s a crew for a demanding cattle drive and doubts Lady Sarah Ashley’s riding ability.
