Who, who, who, who, who, who, and who? Gotta agree with the above poster - never heard of any of them.

No, only one 'who' in that list.

David Tennant
Nathan Fillion
Alan Tudyk
Tobey MacGuire
Sean Connery

 

[Bluestars]

Matt Damon and Leonardo Dicaprio. They're easy on the eyes, but really great actors. Poor Leo, I don't think he'll ever win an Oscar because he's just too darn pretty.

Leo has got to be one of the best actors I have ever seen. His performance in The Departed was outstanding. I also thought he did a great job in Catch Me If You Can.

I like Matt Damon, Leo, Russell Crowe, Mark Wahlberg, Tom Hanks, Mel Gibson, ad Bruce Willis.

Robert Downey Jr.
Paul Walker
John Travolta
James Franco

[disneyfav4ever]

Who are some of your favorite actors right now?

Stuart Wilson Ive always liked him but never know who he was until recently. Just watched movies where he was one of the leads not just a back up. 'Slow burn' and 'Run away home'

Nick Brimble
Cirian Hinds
Bruce Payne
Jason Issacs
Ian McShane
Christopher eccelston
luke Goss
James Nessbit

I think im on a British kick for actors right now.

I really like Jason Issacs too. I can't think of any I really like that others may not have heard of, but I did really like Amy Adams before she was a household name.

 

[disneyfav4ever]

Jason Issacs is really in a lot also but he is very maleable and you don't always recognize him. He has been in several Harry Potters and was the evil Brittish officer in "The Patriot". I like him best as the gay neighbor of Charleze Theron. So sweet and nurturing.

He also played Hook in the Peter Pan movie that was made a few years ago.

When I read the title of this thread, I thought, "What are the odds ANYONE else will mention Ciaran Hinds?"

Oh lordy, I love him!

Colin Firth is no slouch either.

Just park me in front of a Masterpiece Theatre marathon and I'm a happy woman.

Amy Adams was in the movie 'Miss Petiegrew lives for a day' With Ciaran Hinds ( he was a clothing designer) if you have seen that one.

So true about Ciaran Hinds, I love him! He was amazing in Jane Eyer. I cried.

 

[Tosie]

Ciaran Hinds is gor-ge-ous! Jason Isaacs is also in the Harry Potter films.

One of my faves is David Straithairn - and he looks even better now that he let his hair go gray.

 

[1957]

Love Ciaran Hinds! Especially in Phantom of the Opera!

Now, Matthew MacFadyen - be still, my grandmotherly heart!

Also love Tom Wilkinson.

 

[mrsheppo]

James Spader - loved him in Boston Legal

 

[pixiewings71]

Oh how in the world could I forget Sean Connery???? I should be beaten with a wet noodle.....LOL

and ummmm, the ever hot Johnny Depp...YUM and Orlando Bloom, ya, they are both on my hottie list. LOL And yes they are good actors too!

 

[binny]

mmm Colin Firth.....

Would add DB Sweeney since he is fresh on my mind today.


Nice to see so many Crowe fans on board! I am so excited for the new Robin Hood coming out in May!

 

[eeyoremum]

Any Nikita fans out there?

My "boyfriend" as my husband calls him is Roy Dupuis. French Canadian actor very hot.

Also:

Jason Connery (Sean's son)
David Tennant

 

[Pakey]

I've got to add Henry Cavill to my list too. On looks alone, he would shoot straight to the top of the list.

 

[JerseyJanice]

Matt Damon and Leonardo Dicaprio. They're easy on the eyes, but really great actors. Poor Leo, I don't think he'll ever win an Oscar because he's just too darn pretty.

I love Leo! I think my son resembles him. DS is only 13, but yes, he does look like Leo did in Gilbert Grape. DS has truly beautiful features and the same coloring as Leo. He's blonde with dark eyes.

Also love Tom Wilkinson.

ITA. Mr. Wilkinson is a great performer.

 

[LiLIrishChick63]

Ben Barnes
Sam Worthington
Russell Crowe

They top my list right now but I also like Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio and others.
