Hugh Jackman used to call Daniel Craig by a mystery swear word

Melbourne, Sep 12 : Hugh Jackman has confessed that he once had a special swear word for his stage co-star Daniel Craig.

The actor duo is working together in a new Broadway play ‘A Steady Rain’.

But the ‘Australia’ star has revealed that there was a time when he wasn’t very fond of the current James Bond, and thus attached a swear word to his name.

He said that when Craig took a role Jackman coveted of poet Ted Hughes in the film ‘Sylvia Plath’ opposite Gwyneth Paltrow, he reacted by calling him the special name.

"That''s the first time I heard your name, and I attached it to, well, some swear word that I won''t say now. But then I watched your performance, and I was like, touche. You were great," the Daily Telegraph quoted Jackman, 40, as having told USA Today.
