Hugh Jackman is used to getting top billing on his movie projects like for his latest film, “The Sheep Detectives. ” In the midst of a global press tour to promote the feature, Jackman has announced a new role — Head of Impact for Humanitix, an innovative charity that takes ticket fees and turns them into donations. The Sydney-based platform launched in 2016 after two high school buds, Adam McCurdie and Josh Ross, identified the inefficiencies in the ticketing platform space and sought out to reinvent how fees are used — particularly for good.
