“Enjoy and have a great New Year,” one fan said. “Take care.”
But the cherry-on-top comment came from British funnyman Gervais, who shared his own shirtless selfie with a massive grin, playfully teasing the fellow star with his exaggerated expression.
“Twins,” wrote the 63-year-old comedian, who is known for regularly posting odd and unflattering bathtub selfies on social media.
Fans joined in on the banter and said, “This photo will always disturb me.”

“Interestingly, at first glance, I actually did think it was Ricky,” one said.
“Ricky…tryin to trick us…those pics are the same,” one joked.
“Definitely see the resemblance … ,” said another.
One fan even offered a fictional plot that had plenty of potential of the big screen.

“Hugh plays a fictionalized version of himself and you play his jealous brother who is also an actor,” the fan outlined the story.
“You refuse to work with him your entire career but then you get cast in a career defining play and the star backs out late in the production and the producer gets Hugh to fill in. Wackiness ensues as you’re forced to work together,” they continued.
“It all culminates with an impromptu real scene of you and Hugh arguing on stage in character but really talking about your strained relationship and saying things you’ve both kept inside for decades.”

Over a year has passed since The Wolverine star and his ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness announced the end of their marriage, which lasted for nearly three decades.
Jackman reportedly spent Christmas in Sydney with his children, Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19, while his rumored girlfriend and Broadway star, Sutton Foster, remained in the US.

Sources claimed that the action hero wanted to introduce Foster to his children, but his ex-wife was against the idea of having a “blended” family Christmas.
“It’s a delicate balancing act and he feels like if anyone is going to spend less time with the kids this year, it’s him,” a source told the Daily Mail.
His children are also reportedly having a hard time accepting their father’s relationship with his The Music Man co-star.

“It’s been hard for the kids, having to welcome Sutton into their father’s world with their own mixed feelings about it, while at the same time feeling guilty if they get too close,” a source was quoted telling Woman’s Day.
“It’s all getting a bit messy but Hugh’s hoping time heals all wounds so if they can get through this holiday season without any big blow-ups, they’ll be in smoother waters coming into the new year,” the source added.
