Celebrities who are only sexy as one character.

Orlando Bloom owns this thread.

Even though I am not into skinny blond twinks typically, I have to admit he was sexy as Legolas.

In real life...meh. He looks like Eurotrash and probably smells like BO and stale cigarette smoke.

John Hurt as The Elephant Man.

Jeff Daniels in the Purple Rose of Cairo

Not trying to be controversial, but the only time Jodi Foster ever looked sexy was in The Accused. Looking back, it's so unfortunate that it took this kind of movie to show that she had a sexy side.

Don't laugh, but I thought Adam Sandler actually looked hot in Don't Mess with the Zohan.

Hiddleston was also quite fetching in Only Lovers Left Alive. Shame only about 12 people ever saw the movie.

Ewwwww. Adam Sandler.

Barf.

John Malkovich as Valmont in Dangerous Liaisons

I thought he had an endearingly goofy sexiness in Making Mr. Right, r9.

Agree with OP.and R6 about Hiddles.

I'll add Cary Elwes in The Princess Bride

Alan Rickman in Robin Hood.

I am one of those 12 people R6, and I feel like Tilda made Hiddles sexy in that part by sheer force of will.

Good day everyone!

Tom Cruise has a blank asexual vibe most of the time, but I found him sexy as Lestat.

R15 = Brad Pitt

The only time I ever found Daniel Day Lewis sexy was in My Beautiful Laundrette.

If you're into the vajay, Dianne Wiest was weirdly sex in Bullets Over Broadway.

R15 I agree about Tom.

Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa/ Black Panther. Charlie Hunnam as Jax Teller. Chris Evans as Captain America.

I remember being shocked at how sexy Rowan Atkinson was in season two of Blackadder. The facial hair helped.

Aniston on Friends as Rachel.

If fame was like bull riding, she'd own the world record for longest ride

Speaking of helpful facial hair: Hugh Laurie as House.

TH was sexy as Loki only in the first Thor movie. After that, his wigs were awful.

Zach Quinto on Heroes

Alan Tudyk on The Dollhouse

Christopher Eccleston as the 9th Doctor

Joaquin Phoenix in Walk the Line

Sharlto Copley in The A Team

Norman Reedus in The Boondock Saints

Seth Rogan in The Green Hornet

Tom Hanks in Philadelphia

Leo DiCaprio in Titanic

LOL, I know. Me too, considering he went out of his way to look like this in Season One.

Gale Harold season one of QAF. After that it was all down hill from there.

Tom Hanks in Philadelphia ??

R3 Loved Jeff in "Purple Rose", but went head over heels for him the next year with "Something Wild". Along with Henry Fonda in "The Lady Eve", he is one of the sexiest screwball nerds ever. He really shines in the dance scene with Melanie Griffith at her old high school, where the sparks start to fly between them.

Everyone in True Blood. Edward Norton in American History X. Viggo Mortenson in LoTR

Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan. Julia Roberts in Erin Brockovich. Frank Langella in Dracula.

Henry Fonda in Once Upon a Time in the West

Frances McDormand in Laurel Canyon.

R28 Melanie Griffith always has the worst hair. She looks like a used q_tip in that picture.

I disagree about Hugh Jackman. Sure, he's sexy as Wolverine, but I think he's always sexy! But then he's totally my type, I like tall, good-natured guys with a sense of humor.

Pretty much agree about everyone else.

Jon Hamm as Don Draper.

I second Edward Norton in American History X

Barbra in What's Up Doc.

I do think she pulled it off.

I just want to say that is a lot of pancake in OP's photo. This isn't meant to knock the subject of said photo, of course.

I also agree with R33, however, I think "used Q-tip" pretty much sums her up altogether.

Maybe this belongs in that Dorothy Hamill thread. "The Drowning Pool" (1975).

More bad hair R39. And her face isn’t pretty. I never got her appeal. I guess it’s a straight thing.

Now that's hot, R25.

What he looked like before his character got AIDS, R27

Olivia Newton-John after she transforms into sexy Sandy in "Grease".

Armie Hammer in Man From U.N.C.L.E.

Benedict Cumberbatch was also sexy in Dr. Strange Joaquin Phoenix in Quills is amazing in every way.

[Quote] Alan Tudyk on The Dollhouse

Interesting

Russell Crowe in Gladiator. That guy in 300 (can’t think of his name). Both got fat shortly after these films.

Vivien Leigh as Scarlett Ciaran Hinds as Caesar Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison

Apologies! Formatting!

Vivien Leigh as Scarlett

Ciarán Hinds as Caesar

Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison

What about Russell Crowe in LA Confidential, R46?

And 'Master & Commander' and '3:10 to Yuma'?

Robert De Niro / Taxi Driver

Russell Crowe in The Sum of Us.

r17, Serious he was sex on a stick in Unbearable likeness of being.

r50, WHAT? in Taxi driver he is creepy cute but he is

Beautiful in Godfather 2

and people don't remember how good looking he was in New York, New York

R17 DDL was way hotter in Last of the Mohicans.

Gerard Butler in 300

Brad Pitt - Troy

Matthew Broderick - Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Jerry Lewis in "The Nutty Professor". If you squint really hard, he's not bad as Buddy Love.
