Jackman Tackles Trade

Hollywood star Hugh Jackman has taken on a new project, according to Britain's Hello magazine. Jackman has taken to the New York streets, camera crew in tow, as he barges into the restaurants and coffee shops of unsuspecting small business owners "tackling the issue of fair trade for producers in the developing world."

Hello says that:

Father of two Hugh is deeply involved in anti-poverty initiatives. After shooting an advert recently on the topic for the UN, he said his commitment was "as an actor... not an economist”...

He is looking to answer questions such as “How is it that a kid dies every three seconds from extreme poverty".

We're all in favor of this latest work...and can't wait to see the documentary he comes up with!
