“What happened?” host Kelly Ripa, 53, asked as she looked at the cast on Hugh’s finger.

“It’s okay. It’s okay,” he informed his hosts.

“I hurt my finger like that,” said presenter Mark Consuelos, 53 years old. “Did you tear it and pull it down?”

“Yeah, I looked down and it was like this,” said Hugh, 55, bending his finger in a strange way.

The Wolverine actor said it didn’t hurt at all.

“I didn’t even know I did it,” said Hugh, 55.

The actor told the audience and hosts of Live With Kelly and Mark that he had to keep his cast for eight weeks.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN

Kelly asked if he knew how he got hurt.

“I was doing ADR on the set of Wolverine and I was doing all this stuff and I looked down and my finger was like this,” Hugh said.

“Did you snap your finger doing ADR?” Kelly asked.

“That’s how committed I am,” Hugh joked.

ADR stands for automated dialogue replacement, which improves the sound quality of an actor’s dialogue.

Hugh was talking about the new Deadpool and Wolverine movie coming to theaters on July 26th.

POOR MARCO!

Hugh and Mark bonded over Hugh’s injury because Mark injured his finger in September 2023.

“I got a serious injury here,” Mark told the live crowd.

He showed them the small splint on his finger while Kelly tried not to laugh.

“I was playing beach volleyball and I went to throw a ball, and I felt it hit my finger a little strangely, and I kept going, and my finger, at the tip, was at a right angle and it looked like this,” explained Mark .

He compared the injured finger with the uninjured one to show the difference, explaining that he tried to straighten it himself, but it didn’t work.

The daytime TV host said he had what was called “hammertoe” after tearing a tendon.

He also had to be in a cast for eight weeks.
