One of Hollywood’s leading actors has launched a once-in-a-lifetime auction for charity, and you have only hours left to make a bid.

He didn’t get to be People Magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” — or Wolverine — by sitting on the sidelines. Hugh Jackman is known for his incredible physique (those shoulders, those abs!) as well as for being one of the nicest guys around. Soon, he’ll be getting ready for X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2 and literally transforming his body into that of Wolverine. And he wants you to join him in the gym and begin your own transformation – to benefit charity!

One lucky winner will work out with Hugh Jackman in two separate sessions in the early AM at a private gym in Manhattan in Fall 2010.

  • Train side-by-side for one hour with Hugh and his fitness guru Don Scott of Jim Karas Personal Training — the same team who was responsible for whipping Hugh into shape for X-Men: The Last Stand.
  • Return later in the week when you get into the ring with Hugh for a boxing workout under the tutelage of former #1 ranked middleweight boxer, the “godfather” of boxing fitness techniques, Michael Olajide, Jr. Olajide is a private coach to a host of celebrities including Mark Wahlberg, John Leguizamo and supermodel Iman. He has consultanted for numerous major films, including Will Smith’s Ali.
  • After getting your butt kicked, take home a personalized nutrition regimen complete with workout tips so you can live what you’ve learned at the hands of these three icons of fitness.

The auction benefits the Summit School community, which aims to help children with special needs develop the tools necessary to achieve success. Students acquire the skills to optimize potential in higher education, job placements, and in their interpersonal relationships. As members of a supportive and nurturing community, students maximize their strengths, develop self-esteem, and become contributing members of society.

Bid today — and if you’re lucky, you’ll win two of the toughest training sessions of your life courtesy of the one and only Hugh Jackman.

And if workouts aren’t your thing, Hugh is also auctioning the chance to join him on the set of his latest movie, Real Steel.

Experience movie making from the actor’s point of view when you win a non-speaking walk-on role in this summer’s futuristic boxing drama, Real Steel in Michigan.

Executive produced by Steven Spielberg and Robert Zemeckis, Real Steel will be directed by Shawn Levy (The Night at the Museum series, Pink Panther, Big Fat Liar, as well as other hits) and stars Hugh Jackman, Evangaline Lilly, Kevin Durand and Hope Davis.

Both auctions end today, July 15, so you only have a few hours to make a bid. To access the auctions, visit CharityBuzz.com.
