Now that director Tom Hooper’s Les Mis casting saga is FINALLY over, it’s time for the age of Tiny Glimpses Of People In Character, HURRAH! First up is Hugh Jackman as protagonist Jean Valjean, and we’re embarrassingly excited by how utterly unfortunate he looks.

He looks ace. This is ace. Are the floodgates now open for tiny snippets of every single actor we’ve just spent the last few months waiting to get cast? Yes, yes they are. JOURNALISM, MOTHERF*CKERS.
