WEHT Ryan Kwanten?

He was the hottest piece of ass on television, and a pretty good actor for a guy who was basically just a model, but his career went nowhere after True Blood. How come?

He wouldn’t put out

by Anonymousreply 1September 4, 2019 2:39 AM

True Blood was infamous for its bad southern accents, but I was impressed that Aussie Kwanten managed to do the best job of the main cast.

Has a gay doctor brother. Perez Hilton said Ryan himself would come out back in 2011, and then nothing came of it.

I see he's had some credits since True Blood, but in weird shows and movies I've never heard about. He's in this show on Crackle with Sean Bean now, and looks slightly bloated. He's starting to remind me of Haley Joel Osment in the early days of his bloat saga. Not good.

I used to find him very hot, then someone on here said he looked like a young W Bush. I couldn't unsee it, so I lost whatever attraction that I had for him.

by Anonymousreply 4September 4, 2019 2:57 AM

He was a hot young thing when he was cast in "True Blood", I assume that aging made him less enticing to casting agents.

by Anonymousreply 5September 4, 2019 3:05 AM

The shelf life of a TV actor is short. Once your successful TV series is over you're pretty much put out to pasture - they've seen you and want someone new. Enjoy it while it lasts!

His last Insta is from 2016, same as his last tweet. Funny that Crackle didn't require him to promote his new show on the socials. Sony must not give a shit, but what else is new.

by Anonymousreply 7September 4, 2019 3:19 AM

He's 42 now. There isn't much demand for an aging TV star.

He was denied entrance at the Vanity Fair Oscar’s party one year and the video made the rounds.

by Anonymousreply 9September 4, 2019 3:21 AM

It also means he doesn't give a shit r7.

If you really care about your career and being relevant you should maintain a social media presence.

You haven't got a clue. Most hot shows from stars right now feature actors and actresses over 50.

You are speaking of people who have real acting actors.

Let's be real, Kwanten's talent was his looks.

But he should be able to land playing someone's Dad on the CW.

by Anonymousreply 22September 4, 2019 3:42 AM

Acting talent*

by Anonymousreply 23September 4, 2019 3:42 AM

*Though to be fair, you had to have made it in the past in some way. Doubt Kwanten will get the Jessica Lange treatment when he's her age. Though who knows.

Yellow? Motor oil?

by Anonymousreply 25September 4, 2019 3:44 AM

r25 It was a joke for the Yellow Skin Troll, don't worry about it.

But yes, he was doused in motor oil on that show. The character was a mechanic, I think.

I'm sure Home And Away would welcome him back with open arms.

Who do you think is better looking: Ryan Kwanten or Alexander Skarsgard? And why?

by Anonymousreply 28September 4, 2019 4:44 PM

R28 Alex. He aged better and has surprisingly enough grown to have the better ass of the two.

by Anonymousreply 29September 4, 2019 4:46 PM

I looked up recent photos of him. He needs to go back to being blond as fast as humanly possible.

What are Ryan Kwanten’s and Alexander Skarsgard’s respective skin colors?

by Anonymousreply 31September 6, 2019 2:56 AM

He’s a natural brunette r30. He’s not a blond.

And he’s a bad actor. He was just hot. But he was never a big star and never will be at this point.

He is shy in real life and deals with social anxiety.

by Anonymousreply 32September 6, 2019 3:04 AM

Do we think he got MeToo'ed during his True Blood days, when everyone was lusting after him? He was the hottest shit on the block for a hot minute there.

r31 Alex is paler than pale, Kwanten is golden.

by Anonymousreply 33September 6, 2019 3:13 AM

R33 if so he would have done a lot More throughout True Bloods 7 years on air.

Here is the video of him being rejected from the Oscars party. He was completely polite and respectful while his FUGLY friend an entitled douche.

by Anonymousreply 36September 6, 2019 3:43 AM

He's beautiful, but unless he hasn't been allowed to showcase some brilliant hidden talent for acting in the past, his days are a bit up. I always feel so sad for beautiful actors with no real talent. Sure, they get a few years of great money and fame, but once they out-age those roles, it's hard for them to get work. To keep working into your 40's and 50's, you do have to actually be a semi-decent actor.

by Anonymousreply 37September 6, 2019 3:59 AM

R33 He really wasn't "the hottest shit on the block".

They don't age well.

R38 I was gonna say this but just decided not to.

Even when considered hot he was never the hottest. No one was looking for him outside of True Blood.

Most people who try to be an actor will never achieve Kwanten's level of success, even if he never works again he was a main cast member on a popular show. I wouldn't cry for those actors who managed to hit it big once.

Not bad!

He was just a total himbo. I never thought he was that attractive but rather that he was meant to be within the context of the show. True Blood was always a show that wasn’t as good as people wanted it to be anyway.

He’s done a few cheap features that went nowhere. Too bad he missed The Walking Dead gravy train.

by Anonymousreply 43September 6, 2019 4:57 AM

Referring to someone as "the hottest shit on the block" is a very ugly expression.

No-one could conceive that as a compliment.

by Anonymousreply 44September 6, 2019 4:57 AM

I thought he was fine, if nothing special, on True Blood. He kinda nailed the clueless jock vibe, I thought. Haven't seen him in anything else to be able to judge if he has any range or anything like that.

r44 I don't think DL is the right place for you. Maybe seek out something safer; perhaps a moderated frau group on Facebook? Just a thought.

by Anonymousreply 45September 6, 2019 10:59 AM

He's on some show on Crackle (a free Streaming App) . It looked unremarkable so I didn't bother to sit through the ads or trailers. I do like that crackle spams " Beaver Toyota... In CUMMING " with a MILF in a come-hither outfit. Lol, I can't help but laugh at it.

I always find people that don’t own televisions interesting. I had a friend that had one but no TV reception on purpose. It was for movies sometimes but they HATED TV, said it’s nothing but violence and propaganda and a way for bias media to brainwash people. Always said if you stopped watching TV and just read more etc. you would see all the bullshit they sell to us. Others just view it is a distraction.

Always interesting to me.

He was quite charming on TB and did the best southern accent of all the actors. And Jason was just about the only character I didn’t end up hating by series’ end.
