Hugh Jackman wraps up shooting for upcoming film 'The Son'

Hugh Jackman and Zeller

Tony award-winning actor Hugh Jackman, on Friday, wrapped up shooting for his upcoming film The Son - Florian Zeller's follow up to his Oscar-winning feature debut The Father. The X-Men actor took to his Instagram handle to announce the news by sharing wrap-up pictures from the movie set. He wrote, "That's a wrap for me on The Son.

@florianzellerofficiel it's been my absolute pleasure. You have the ability to be so clear with your direction whilst allowing your actors to feel free to create. @lauradern and @vanessa__kirby working beside you both was a true joy. From London to Marseilles to the streets of NYC. Until next time!(sic)" Apart from Jackman, the film will also star Vanessa Kirby and Laura Dern in key roles.

As with The Father, The Son was also adapted by Zeller and Christopher Hampton, from the filmmaker's critically acclaimed stage play. The Son focuses on Peter (Jackman) as his busy life with his new partner Emma (Kirby) and their baby is thrown into disarray when his ex-wife Kate (Dern) turns up with their teenage son, Nicholas. The young man is troubled, distant, and angry, playing truant from school for months. Peter strives to be a better father, but the weight of Nicholas' condition sets the family on a dangerous course.
