Jackman and Craig doing research for "A Steady Rain" -
>Hugh Jackman, Daniel Craig arrive unannounced at 26th and California
James Bond and the Boy From Oz are not regular visitors to the Cook County courthouse. But then, Thursday was an unusual day at 26th and California.
Around noon, the movie stars Daniel Craig (the current Bond, left) and Hugh Jackman (a Broadway star and the most recent host of the Academy Awards, below) arrived at the Cook County Criminal Courts at 2600 S. California Ave., unannounced.
Before long, deputies' hearts were a-twitter. "They came in, best we can tell, with everyone else and walked around pretty nondescript," said Cook County Sherriff's spokesman Steve Patterson, adding that the court was not told of their arrival in advance. The actors confirmed their identities when asked.
Craig and Jackman were traveling incognito on a Chicago research trip for their upcoming Broadway play, "A Steady Rain." Penned by the Chicago writer Keith Huff and first seen at the Chicago Dramatists theater, "A Steady Rain" is an intensely realistic play about two born-and-bred Chicago police officers trying to deal with the pressures of their job. <<<
