AceShowbiz - Hugh Jackman celebrated America's Independence Day holiday, July 04, with a workout to remember after running into Arnold Schwarzenegger at a gym in Los Angeles.
The Logan star, 49, shared his excitement at the chance meeting with fans on Twitter as he posted a snap of himself and a pal named Pete posing with Terminator legend Arnold during a surprise joint sweat session.
"What a way to spend 4th," Hugh captioned the photo. "With @Schwarzenegger and Pete at the original @GoldsGym in Venice #FourthofJuly2018."
The 70-year-old action icon was quick to share the image with his own social media followers as he reposted the shot and replied, "Fantastic to see you and train together!"

Hugh and Arnold are both known for their muscly physiques, but Schwarzenegger has been forced to go easy on his workouts in recent months after undergoing heart surgery in March.
The Austrian-born former Mr. Universe had originally been hospitalised for a planned catheter valve replacement operation in Los Angeles, but suffered complications during the procedure and required emergency open heart surgery.
However, he has since bounced back from the health problem, and it appears his form hasn't suffered too much from the forced bed rest, as he showed off his strength early on Wednesday for the viral #Flex4Forces challenge, in which participants flex their muscles on camera to show their support for America's military, and then challenge someone else to do the same.
"This is fantastic and is of course a great honour and pleasure for me to do that (flex), especially on July 4th," he shared in a video post on Twitter, before displaying his bulging bicep in his right arm.
He then called out American football star J.J. Watt to take up the task, saying, "Why don't you give us a little flex, pump up the troops also...?"
