Hugh Jackman wears his movie costumes while having sex.

The "Australia" actor - who has two adopted children with wife Deborra-Lee Furness - often keeps his outfits from films including "X-Men", when he played sexy mutant Wolverine, to impress in the bedroom.

Hugh - who has been named the Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine - said: "It's easy with my wife. She loves the idea of me coming home in costume because it makes her feel like she's having an affair in a good way.

"When we met, I was cast as a prisoner with tattoos and she'd say, 'Don't take your tattoos off tonight!' and I'd be like, 'All right!' But what works best with her is the stockbroker look."

Hugh, 40, also revealed he turns Deborra-Lee on by showing off his "sexy dance" moves.

He added to People magazine: "She also says, 'Do your sexy dance for me,' an 80s-like, hip-swivelling number, and that works for me!"
