Hugh Jackman, most famous for his role of Wolverine in the X-Men series, has had a cancer scare. According to Jackman, his wife became concerned with a mark on his nose and told him to see a doctor. Luckily he listened, and the doctors found it was cancer and treated it accordingly. He also states that it caused by the Sun.

Jackman took to his official Instagram to break the news. Along with a picture of his bandaged nose, he wrote: "Deb said to get the mark on my nose checked. Boy, was she right! I had basil cell carcinoma. Please don't be foolish like me. Get yourself checked. And USE sunscreen!!!"

The article says that this is the most common form of cancer, and while most survive, it can severly damage the skin.

Get well soon, Hugh!
