Charlie Cox is a pretty recent newcomer to the acting scene and is best known for his role as Tristan Thorne in the 2007 film adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s novel, Stardust. If you haven’t checked this movie out, please do! It didn’t do very well while out in theaters, but almost everyone I know that has watched it has fallen in love with the story, as well as Mr. Cox (feels like I’m talking about a dirty stripper or a bad porn, sorry Charlie). It’s perfectly charming and magical, just as any good fantasy film should be and that’s partly due to both Charlie and Claire Danes’ performances (along with Neil Gaiman’s ridiculous storytelling skills). Is it wrong to say that I may love him more in period costumes than in regular day-to-day clothing? OK, who am I kidding? I’d take him any way!
Make sure to check him out in this year’s Killing Bono, a fun movie about two rival bands from Dublin – one being U2. He’ll be starring alongside fellow British hottie, Ben Barnes. Hot Brits and killer music? I guess I’ll just start standing in line now. 😉
