Hugh Jackman has surprised everyone by baring it all in a 90-second advertisement for the Australian footwear company RM Williams.

In the commercial, the actor is seen sitting on a chair completely naked and wearing only a pair of boots. The “Logan” star is apparently having a discussion about the footwear with an executive from the company. The video starts with the executive saying that the company is “delighted” to know that the superstar loves the shoes they produce.

“I am actually like in love, they (shoes) are great, they are amazing. Really,” Jackman says in the video.

The meeting gets more awkward when the executive tries to convey to the actor that he has gone too far and took things literally. “We appreciate how literally you have taken the clause that stipulates that you can only wear RM Williams,” the executive tells the actor.

However, the star interrupts him and says that “his word” is his “bond.”

“My word is my bond. When I say I’m in. I am all in, you know? And, honestly, it’s me who should be paying you,” the actor says in the advertisement.

The “Bad Education” star continues to rave about the boots and labels them as “one beautiful piece of leather.” Jackman also jokes in the clip that the balls of his feet went to heaven after wearing such amazing shoes.

“The balls of my feet just feel like they have died and were widely mourned and just went to ball heaven if you know what I mean,” Jackman adds in the video.

The ad ends with the Oscar-nominated actor rubbing his bare butt with the coffee chair he is sitting on before telling the executive that he should sit on top the particular chair because it is really comfortable.

“What is this? You should sit in this! Everything at R.M.Williams is just so comfortable,” the star says in the commercial.

The advertisement was produced by Jackman’s close pal and actor Ryan Reynolds, acording to the New York Post.

The esteemed actor was announced as the company’s brand ambassador in 2019. At that time, Jackman said that it’s an honor for him to be associated with such a brand.

“It is an honor to be a part of the R.M.Williams family and to wear the brand’s iconic craftsman boot for the Undeniable Character campaign,” Fashion Network quoted Jackman, as saying.
