Hugh Jackman, Amy Adams, Mickey Rourke Talk Oscars – VIDEOS

The Oscars are coming right up! ABC’s live telecast from Hollywood’s Kodak Theatre will air this Sunday, Feb. 22, 2009 at 5 pm PT/8 pm ET.

I’ve been scouring the Web to see who’s got the best coverage, and The Hollywood Reporter has some excellent videos of filmmakers and actors up for awards on Sunday. Read on to see what Clint Eastwood, Ron Howard, Hugh Jackman, Amy Adams and others have to say about their projects.

In this clip, Ron Howard talks about making "Frost/Nixon," while Clint Eastwood gives his take on leading lady, Angelina Jolie:

Hugh Jackman tells us why making "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" made him feel "pretty badass," and which X-Men mutant might be even more popular than Wolverine. Say what?!

Think stars have it easy? Then listen to Amy Adams and Michelle Williams talk about the challenges they faced while making "Doubt" and "Wendy and Lucy."

Mickey Rourke wasn’t all that keen on making "The Wrestler" at first. Listen as he talks about his initial reservations and gaining a few pounds for the role.
