Even though having the disease three times may seem unlucky, Jackman previously stated that he expected to have more cancerous skin cells in the future.
Shortly after his second diagnosis, while promoting 'X-Men: Days of Future Past,' the Aussi hunk admitted, "I'm realistic about the future and it's more than likely that I'll have at least one more but probably many more, which is not uncommon for an Aussie particularly from English stock growing up in Australia where I don't remember ever being told to put sunscreen on."
Adding, "But the beauty of this is it's all preventable, it's just about getting proper check-ups. I can be typical man, a little lazy, I couldn't be bothered and now I'm not lazy at all."
