First, Personal Security is a spec script by Matt Lieberman. Jackman will star as a tough Gotham police detective coerced into bodyguard duty for a spoiled teen heiress who is receiving kidnapping threats.

Second, Jackman is spinning over Drive,an adaptation of the James Sallis novel, playing a lonely who drives race cars by day and getaway cars by night in Los Angeles.  Rumors are that Jackman is energized by the latest draft that captures the tone of a Steve McQueen film.

Third, according to Variety, a long development project Carouselis now a priority.  A rewrite emerged as a timeless spirit of the Rodgers & Hammerstein classic while bringing in relevance for a contemporary audience. Jackman will play Billy Bigelow in hopes that the role of Julie Jordan is played Anne Hathaway. Both performed a duet in the Oscarcast opening number.  Nothing official has begun with the actress.

Lastly, Jackman, who won a Tony for The Boy From Oz, hopes to return to the Broadway stage in early 2010 performing the title role in Houdini.
