Hugh Jackman Pulls Out of “Cleo”

Catherine Zeta-Jones has lost her leading man. Hugh Jackman has pulled out of discussions to star opposite her in “Cleo”, which is a 3-D live action musical.

This musical is a $30 million dollar project, directed by Steven Soderbergh, who asked Catherine to play Cleopatra and wanted Hugh Jackman to play her Roman lover, Marc Antony.

Jackman reportedly pulled out because of scheduling conflicts, but no one knows what that conflict is exactly. He is set to hosts the Academy Awards in February and is reprising his role in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine."
