Hugh Jackman lost his cool at a theatergoer for leaving his mobile phone on while he performed on Broadway.

The Aussie actor — who stars opposite James Bond star Daniel Craig in A Steady Rain — managed to stay in character as the phone rang as he gave a preview performance of his play.

But as the ringing continued, the actors’ patience was pushed to the limit and they told the member of the audience to answer the phone.

“You want to get that?” Jackman fumed.

“Grab your phone, it doesn’t matter,” said Jackman as the ringing continues.

“Come on, just turn it off … we can wait. Just get the phone,” Jackman continues to roaring applause from the audience.

“Don’t be embarrassed. Just grab it,” he adds.

A Steady Rain, which sees Hugh and Daniel portray tough Chicago cops, officially opens today.
