Avon Man Hugh Jackman to Corner Market on Mistake-Proof Mascara

Tired of toy companies' monopoly on garish movie adaptations, the cosmetics titan Avon is set to receive its own feature-length commercial: Avon Man will feature Hugh Jackman as a laid-off car salesman who finds new professional life as a make-up retailer. And why shouldn't he? Until you've heard that Aussie lilt purring the virtues of Beyond Color Plumping Lip Color SPF with Double the Retinol, you haven't really gotten the full picture of what this iconic brand can do for you.

Darren Aronofsky tacks on another project, Russell Brand hops to holiday notoriety, and much more Hollywood Ink after the jump.
