Now you're talking.

Frustratingly my photo not posting!

Agree with many of these. Think Gregory Peck was a bit of a dish.

Jude Law but only in The Holiday! I mean, we all want a man who looks at us like he looked at Cameron Diaz in the film?

Interesting. For me, Jude Law was only hot as Dickie Greenleaf in 'The Talented Mr. Ripley'. Talk about perfect casting.

I think both the young Mick Jagger and the young Keith Richards have something about them.

I second:
Henry Cavill
Jacob Elordi
Aidan Turner
Pedro Pascal
Jonathan Bailey
Viggo Mortensen (as Aragorn)

Would also add Sam Reid as Lestat and Belmont Camelli!

Idris. Every time.

Also Colin Firth.

AND Tom Hiddlestone dancing.

Jamlighter · 29/08/2026 20:58

Yes

Have you seen him in Your Friends and Neighbours? Handsome and so much charisma.

Paul Newman as Brick in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. I've seen it on stage many times and no one has ever come close.

Said that too…

Agree about Aidan Turner ❤️ also Josh o’ Connor and young Tom Hardy. I’m enjoying this thread!

Montgomery Clift

Reminds me of that SATC episode - what actor would you sleep with in an imaginary scenario - his name was brought up every time!

YADNBU - he's on my Pinterest as the most beautiful person ever to have lived😍

Me, circa 1996: "Forgive me, but I think that's the most beautiful man I've ever seen."
DH <looks along to my left>: "That's Paul McGann".

Michael Caine and Val Kilmer when younger
Pedro Pascal
Tom Hardy

What a shame!

Alex is one gorgeous man though. In a different league to other 'hot' actors. Also seems like a decent person who keeps to himself, which adds to the appeal. Him being nearly 2 metres tall doesn't hurt either!

Tim Curry as Frank n Furter

RIP - I watched the Sweet Transvestite clip the other day - he's very masculine in it - which probably sounds a strange thing to say - don't know what it is - obviously the character is super self-possessed which probably helps!

Agree with John Taylor in the eighties but also

That’s a good shout. Wasn’t my #1 but I feel like it’s hard to disagree

A fine list, we clearly have very similar taste in men!

Matt Bomer is deffo in my top 5

Lifeomars · 29/08/2026 21:03

David Bowie, especially in a suit, he could really carry off a stylish piece of tailoring.

Be still my beating heart.
