Actors that you only fancy in one role

[mamaduckbone]

I'll start...
Cillian Murphy only as Tommy Shelby
Viggo Mortensen only as Aragorn.

I know it's been done before but it's Sunday evening and I'm bored!

Mine are exactly the same as your two OP, Tommy Shelby and Aragorn!

Also, Dexter Morgan.

Surely Brad Pitt doesn't count cos he's generally fit in most

Not to me. Just the one time in Troy many moons ago.

I think John Hamm wins cos you wouldn't look at him twice normally

I like Jon Hamm anywhere I catch a glimpse of him. Handsome but he looks like he'd be an arsehole in real life.

Orlando Bloom as Legolas.
Chris Hemsworth as Thor
Jonny Depp as Jack Sparrow
Can I say Ross Marquand as Aaron from the walking dead?

For those above I know some one who met Sean Bean once and she told me never ever underestimate how photogenic Sean Bean is. Now that does not detract from the point.

Roman Atkinson in Blackadder 2
Steve Coogan in The Trip - where he kind of plays himself I suppose
Colin Firth in Bridget Jones

@DisappearingGirl If you've got a fiver spare it's worth downloading Seawall. It was written for Andrew Scott and not only is he UTTERLY GLORIOUS in it, the whole thing is a masterpiece.

Dh reckons Clooney would be a laugh on a night out, but Brad Pitt would be an arse.

I think dh is jealous of BP, so I will not be inviting him out with us. Should the opportunity arise.

Jon Hamm as Don Draper.

@WellTidy

How could I forget? Damien Lewis as Brodie in Homeland.

Damien Lewis as Capulet. He was fantastic.

"James Norton in happy valley. Can't stand him in anything else"

Does he not kidnap and rape a woman in this 🧐

I think the exact same about the two posters saying Jamie Dornan in The Fall!! He plays a woman hating, raping sexual deviant who stalks, burgles and murders lone women. If you find him attractive in that you need to bloody look at yourself
It completely ruined him for me, he's a cracking actor. I found him very believable … but certainly not fanciable.

@Figgyboa

Orlando Bloom as Legalos....

Yes!

Charlie Cox as Daredevil

Another one for Rowan Atkinson .
Jeffrey Dean Morgan in The Good Wife.
Rik Mayall in The New Statesman.

Jon Hamm in Mad Men

Andrew Scott as the hot priest
Brad Pitt only as JD in Thelma and Louise and as Tyler Durden in fight club. Nothing else.
James Morton as Sidney Chambers.
Viggo Mortenson as Aragon. I couldn't believe it when I saw him in real life!

@ LegoLady95 Jamie Dornan in the fall for me too! Don’t know what that says about me. Never was remotely interested before...

Chris Barrie as Ace Rimmer.

Also here to say Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby.

Viggo as Aragorn...certainly made the marathon cinema trips whenever LOTR came out, worth it! Him speaking Elvish is 🥰
Alan Rickman in Love Actually (or anything really)

Jude law in the Young Pope.

Dont usually find him attractive, so perhaps its the whole you know you shouldn't want to shag him as he's, well the pope and its not allowed that makes him attractive in it.

Also, although lust worthy all the time.... Alan Rickman as severus Snape

Yes to Michael C Hall as Dexter!

But the main one is Tom Burke in The Musketeers. Really don’t fancy him in RL or in anything else. Must be the leather?

That is odd because I only like him when he is being Cormoran Strike. In The Musketeers he reminded me of a grumpy Siamese cat with a hat on.

@Sunshinesky1981

Also, although lust worthy all the time.... Alan Rickman as severus Snape

Oh god, I agree. Every word just drips from his mouth. The looks he gave... Always would imagine being pushed up against a wall by him (will now leave as going too far!)

How has nobody mentioned Aidan Turner? In everything except Poldark he does nothing for me, nothing. However when he is stomping around Cornwall in a tricorn hat I love him.

(His hair went a bit trance by the last series so the bloom went off Ross Poldark slightly).
