Hugh Jackman, who stars as the titular character in superhero film 'The Wolverine,' has confessed that the diet he sticks to when he gets in shape for the role worries him, as he knows that it is not good.
He told a UK website that he consumes 6,000 calories a day and has to eat a dozen eggs every day.
