Hugh Jackman has made an emotional cameo appearance in a video tribute for an Australian cancer patient's wife.

The 'X-Men' hunk appears in Kristian Anderson's heart-warming video message for his wife Rachel's birthday to thank her for supporting him throughout his chemotherapy treatment.

In the movie, Jackman looks into the camera and says: "He loves you Rachel. He loves you," reports the Daily Star.

Anderson came in contact with the actor after he appealed for help to an Australian radio station. (ANI)
