“We burst out of the building,” Zac told MTV News. “It looked great on camera. We didn’t know it (at the time), but it was pretty intense. I watched playback, and he saved me from a burning building. It later exploded that night. It was a set, but it later burned down.”

Don’t worry though – both actors are doing just fine after their fiery escape.

“It was pretty awesome,” Zac joked. “Hugh Jackman saving you from a burning building? It’s every girl’s dream.”
