VIDEO: Watch CHAPPIE's Hugh Jackman Attend the First Ever Holographic Press Conference

Hugh Jackman recently attended the first-ever holographic press conference, along with Neil Blomkamp to discuss his newest role in CHAPPIE with the Sony Spain press. The Australian actor was beamed live to Spain's capital from Berlin as a hologram, to discuss his new film.

The stunt was a "stomping success", according to Variety, who described how the Aussie actor and South African director "came over loud and clear". Watch the press conference below!

In the film about a smart robot named Chappie, the Tony Award-winner plays a corrupt law enforcement officer, Vincent, who is attempting to construct his own destructive robt with the sole purpose of taking out Chappie."I loved the way that Neill has given a traditional, out-and-out villainous role a very valid argument against artificial intelligence," Jackman says.

Jackman is an Academy Award®-nominated, Golden Globe® and Tony Award®-winning actor. The Australian native was most recently on Broadway in THE RIVER. Prior to that he starred in his one-man show Hugh Jackman - Back on Broadway in the fall of 2011.

Jackman's dedication to the Broadway community was feted at the 2012 Tony Awards, where he received a Special Award from the Tony Awards Administration Committee, recognizing his accomplishments as a performer and humanitarian. He previously starred on Broadway in Keith Huff's play, A Steady Rain, opposite Daniel Craig, and as 1970s singer-songwriter Peter Allen in The Boy From Oz, for which he received the 2004 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical as well as Drama Desk, Drama League, Outer Critics Circle and Theatre World Awards.

Additional theater: Carousel at Carnegie Hall, Oklahoma! at the National Theatre in London (Olivier nomination), Sunset Boulevard (MO Award, Australia's Tony Award) and Disney's Beauty and the Beast (MO Award nomination). Jackman made his first major U.S. film appearance as Wolverine in the first installment of the X-Men series, a role he reprised in the enormously successfulX2 and X-Men: The Last Stand in 2006, as well as X-Men Origins: Wolverine in 2009 and in The Wolverine in 2013. Jackman reunited with the X-men team for X-Men: Days of Future Past.
