Broadway stars Sutton Foster and Hugh Jackman made a highly anticipated red carpet debut as a couple at the 2025 AFI Fest in Hollywood.

Foster, a two-time Tony Award winner known for her roles in Thoroughly Modern Millie and Anything Goes, and Jackman, celebrated for his performances in The Greatest Showman and The Music Man, first met in the Broadway community in the early 2000s.

Their red carpet debut has sparked widespread media attention, with outlets highlighting their chemistry and the significance of their public appearance. As they continue to support each other’s careers and personal lives, Foster and Jackman remain among the most searched actors globally, reflecting their enduring appeal and the public’s fascination with their relationship.
