Hugh Jackman disapproves discrimination against mexicans

Jackman had planned to visit Mexico on April 29 to promote the film "X-Men Origins: Wolverine.'' His trip was canceled by the health risk imposed following the outbreak of the virus and said the actor could not yet know when to do so.

The swine flu pushed it to postpone his visit to Mexico, but Hugh Jackman is against the discrimination that some Mexicans have suffered as a result of the outbreak of swine flu.

"I do not like to discriminate against Mexicans'' said the Australian actor in a capital city newspaper in its Friday edition. "The discrimination is not the way, so, in part, I want to go as soon as possible to show that Mexico is well, the government has taken appropriate measures.''

In the interview, Jackman also noted that China's misinformation led to exaggerate to quarantine more than one hundred Mexicans fearing that they were infected with swine flu.

"When you do not have the information, then there is fear, but I think that people in China overreacted' 'said the actor of movies like "Snatch''and "Australia''. "We all need care, but beyond that we are not even sure that it started in Mexico.''

The premiere of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine'' in Mexico was scheduled to end of April. Since the cinema closed to prevent the spread of influenza, distributor 20th Century Fox decided to postpone it tentatively for May 14th
