NEW YORK — Hugh Jackman has had another cancerous growth removed.
The 45-year-old actor attended the premiere of his latest film, “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” Saturday night with a bandage over his nose.
He said he had a basal-cell carcinoma removed two nights earlier.
Jackman said he learned the results of a recent biopsy earlier Thursday, and had it removed right after.
Basal-cell carcinoma is a slow-growing form of skin cancer. Jackman was treated for the same disease last year but said the prognosis was good: “It’s all out now.”
But he urged others to “get checkups and wear sunscreen.”
