Covering his eyes with dark shades, the Wolverine star swung his tight, toned, arms back and forth as he flashed a big cheesy grin to passers-by, while sweat beads dripped down his forehead.

Hugh was clearly in a good mood on his sprint, and it's hardly surprising as it's just been revealed that he is set to star in the new flick Collateral Beauty alongside Rooney Mara, according to Variety.

The movie, which will be directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejoin, will see Hugh and Rooney, 30, reunite after they recently starred in Peter Pan's original story, Pan, which will hit the big screen in October.
