Kidman reveals Jackman fainted on first day of shooting Baz Luhrmann epic

Washington, December 6 (ANI): Australian actress Nicole Kidman has revealed that Hugh Jackman had fainted on the first day of shooting the Baz Luhrmann epic.

The actress, who had to be rushed to hospital after fainting on horseback while filming her scenes in the blistering heat, said that she was not the only one to struggle with the scorching temperatures.

She said that Jackman too fainted just hours after the cameras started rolling.

"Obviously, I'm very fair-skinned and that's not where I'm at ease (the outback). I remember sitting on a horse and thinking, 'Gosh, this is what you feel like before you faint,' and then I fainted," Contactmusic quoted her as telling Britain's The Independent newspaper.

"Hugh fainted too on the first day. He keeled over on his horse at a 45-degree angle," she added. (ANI)
