Thus far, the crime thriller has <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/caught-stealing-captured-critics-attention-201902113.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:captured critics\u2019 attention;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">captured critics\u2019 attention<\/a>, and it\u2019s also earned a look from Hugh Jackman. That was evidenced by the fact that Jackman posted some words of support for Aronofsky and co. amid the film\u2019s opening weekend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The <em>Caught Stealing<\/em> premiere in New York drew out a few notable faces this past week, and among them was Hugh Jackman. It was there that he not only posed for photos but also mixed it up with Darren Aronofsky and the cast. Jackman even posed for photos with the film\u2019s lead actor, Austin Butler and, as a video shared by <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@hollywoodreporter\/video\/7543048986630868279\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:THR;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">THR<\/a> showed, the Australian actor had kind words for Butler\u2019s work. Sometime later, Jackman took to his <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thehughjackman\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Instagram;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Instagram<\/a> story to share a photo of himself that was taken at the premiere and to share a message:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Go see [Caught Stealing]!!

I honestly never get tired of seeing artists support each other, and this is a sweet example of that. Also, I guess it probably shouldn\u2019t be all that surprising that Jackman attended that premiere and praised the film. That\u2019s because of his connection to the director.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Darren Aronofsky previously collaborated with Hugh Jackman on the 2006 film <em>The Fountain<\/em>. The science-fiction, romance film that involves three different stories involving varied characters played by Jackman and Rachel Weisz. While the movie bombed at the box office and received mixed reviews, it has garnered something of a cult following. Now, after seeing Jackman shout out Aronofsky, a part of me is thinking about the possibility of them reuniting for another film at some point in the future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">More on Caught Stealing<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Austin Butler runs out of a car in Caught Stealing\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/xvFsxaL.a5nlHH3_xhocPg--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/cinemablend_388\/db91aa4d0b938cde37a2a40538c0aba2\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Austin Butler runs out of a car in Caught Stealing<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/austin-butler-tour-guide-madness-194034634.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Austin Butler Is A \u2018Tour Guide\u2019 Through \u2018Madness\u2019 In Darren Aronofsky\u2019s \u2018Caught Stealing\u2019;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Austin Butler Is A \u2018Tour Guide\u2019 Through \u2018Madness\u2019 In Darren Aronofsky\u2019s \u2018Caught Stealing\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">At this point, though, a lot of eyes seem to be on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/caught-stealing-review-master-bleakness-162440842.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Caught Stealing, which was positively reviewed;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><em>Caught Stealing<\/em>, which was positively reviewed<\/a> by CinemaBlend\u2019s Eric Eisenberg. The movie centers around a former baseball player (Austin Butler) who finds himself unexpectedly thrust into the criminal underworld in 1990s New York after agreeing to watch a neighbor\u2019s cat. Also in the movie are <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/austin-butler-zo-kravitz-got-123426368.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Zo\u00eb Kravitz (with whom Butler was competitive;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Zo\u00eb Kravitz (with whom Butler was competitive<\/a> amid a scene), a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/tv\/articles\/matt-smith-asked-caught-stealing-163107138.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:mohawk-sporting Matt Smith;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">mohawk-sporting Matt Smith<\/a>, Liev Schreiber, Vincent D&#8217;Onofrio, Benito Mart\u00ednez Ocasio (Bad Bunny), Regina King and Carol Kane.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">So it pretty much goes without saying that Darren Aronofsky assembled quite the ensemble for his newest production, and it\u2019s wonderful to see that it\u2019s being well received. The icing on the cake for me, however, is the sight of Hugh Jackman sharing some praise for the film. In some cases, the ties that bind some creatives can be quite strong, and it seems Jackman and Aronofsky still have a solid bond.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Check out <em>Caught Stealing<\/em>, which is playing in theaters nationwide now.
