A few days after Hiddleston's tour, Hugh Jackman walked the red carpet outside a Beijing theater, here to promote The Wolverine, released on Oct 17.

About 1,500 fans lined the sides of the 95-meter carpet and Jackman spent 40 minutes signing and greeting before he arrived at the end, where another surprise awaited him.

His fans had brought him a cake to celebrate his birthday a few days before, because they knew he was on the road and might have spent his birthday on a plane.
