IOWA FALLS, Iowa — Actor Hugh Jackman didn't just show up for Saturday night's reopening of the historic Metropolitan Theater in Iowa Falls. He and his family spent much of the day in the small community.

Jackman, his wife and his children arrived in Iowa Falls on Saturday afternoon and went fishing at a city park before moving onto festivities at the 114-year-old refurbished movie theater.

“I've never had my family with me on one of these. But it felt right here,” Jackman said.

Later, Jackman greeted hundreds of people outside the theater, which was showing two of his movies. He even sang briefly at a city park.
