It would be enough to scare off some tender children, but Ava Jackman is so close to her film star father Hugh that she's obviously used to his metamorphoses by now.
Today, the six-year-old seemed unperturbed by her 43-year-old father's giant beard as they hared around a Manhattan play yard together.
Hugh, who is heroically hands on with his children, has grown the monstrous bush for his role as Jean Valjean in Les Misérables.

He announced on his Twitter account recently that composer Claude-Michel Schönberg had penned a new number for him to sing in the film adaptation that isn't in the beloved musical.
Little else is known about the song at this point. Jackman tweeted that he is in rehearsals for the movie. Filming is expected to begin soon, with a release date expected in December.
The movie, directed by Tom Hooper, also will star Russell Crowe as Inspector Javert, Anne Hathaway as Fantine, Amanda Seyfried as Cosette and Samantha Barks as Eponine.
The cast is also expected to include Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen as the Thénardiers.

New songs aren't uncommon when stage musicals move to the big screen. Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice wrote a new song for the 1996 film version of Evita, and won an Oscar for it.
But before he starts work on this epic project, Jackman is performing to his favourite audience - Ava, and of course his son, Oscar, ten.
Jackman married his wife Deborra Lee-Furness, 56, in 1996 and they adopted Oscar in 2000 after she suffered two miscarriages. Their daughter was adopted in 2005.
In an interview with The Times he talked of how being a father has changed his life.
