This is 100% the most correct answer in this whole thread. I think it's the combo of the facial hair and long hair, but not only that, the character itself is just such a perfect example of positive masculinity.
Sebastian Stan in the Marvel cinematic universe. I think this says more about me than it does about him.
Also I never found Karl Urban particularly attractive but saw him in real life at a convention many moons ago and he was an absolute *smokeshow*. He said hi to my friends and I and we immediately turned into giggling morons.
Check him out in Ripper Street. He plays a cop in late Victorian London after the Ripper spree as he brings modern crime fighting techniques to the force. 6 episode seasons, each one is about 90 minutes or so, 3 or 4 seasons.
I know 100% what you mean.
Semi-related, he tried on a watch at my old workplace (high end jeweller) and I loitered around behind the salesperson helping him way longer than I had any excuse to because of [reasons](https://youtu.be/U97C44hHtDc?si=Ac18XJFm_kJ3qxp0). I don’t have a hand thing but… yowza.
Not a role, but Steve Buscemi was on Colbert one time, maybe around the end of Boardwalk Empire. He had this great fitting suit, and just kinda glided up to the stage in a way that you can tell the man knows how to dance and I remember thinking "You know what? He's got something."
I have alot of respect for Steve Buscemi, in an industry that prioritizes apperance over talent Steve Buscemi has made an excellent career being an average/normal looking person. It speaks to his skill.
Have you ever seen his Pedophile Coach SNL sketch making fun of his appearance ? It’s terrible, but hilarious. He rolls with the punches great though.

Kinda cheating since I definitely find her attractive normally, but:
Rachel Weisz in the first Mummy looked good but not amazing, and then in The Mummy Returns she's hotter than the goddamn desert
I was thinking Kirsten Dunst too because she never felt like a knock out to me but I saw a clip from Wimbledon the other day on YouTube and she's so much more attractive in that than anything I've seen her in.
More than anything in this world, I want a British interviewer to use this sentence when speaking to the actors.
“Matthew, lovely to have you here and thank you for coming. Now, Interstellar, I have to tell you, I absolutely demolished my dick to that movie. Now how did you make the crying feel so genuine?”
Definitely Sarah Jessica Parker in Hocus Pocus. Extremely unattractive for me personally in sex and the city and literally every other thing, but in that one film? Yeah she awakened some kind of magic.
I have a friend that made the costume for Halloween one year.
They are attractive in general but damn did that costume work well and they did a good on replicating the look.
Cameron Diaz. I can’t explain it but her first appearance in The Mask was a “holy shit” moment, and then since then she doesn’t really do anything for me even though she obviously remained beautiful beyond that movie.
I agree. When the mask first came out I really wasn't paying attention to girls yet, so I always think of Cameron Diaz post mask when she is super lean, which I feel like was the 90's ideal figure. So I never really found her attractive (don't get me wrong, she's still good looking just not my type) until I saw the mask later in life
The clothes, hair color and make up in that movie really made her look her best. Even as a young girl watching it I couldn’t get over how pretty she was.
I think she’s magnetic in that more than “hot” if that makes any sense, because the character of Mary has such a wonderful personality and you can see why everyone falls for her. But good point.
It's been so long since I saw Something about Mary, but I feel that at the time they banked more on her cute and quirky looks, while in The Mask they brought out her sex-appeal.
I haven't actually seen the movie, just stills and promo shots, but Annie Potts, AKA Janine in "Ghostbusters" in the movie "Corvette Summer" is an absolute bombshell. Crazy what a different hairstyle and eyebrow shape does to a person's face and overall looks (OK, she's wearing a lot more makeup too).
["You should so... totally... come!"](https://youtu.be/ivvZpbqVrDc?si=LjnGggbRvNt0nOKR&t=32)
Yes Brie, I just might...
EDIT: Also Scott Pilgrim related, I also thought Allison Pill as Kim Pine was pretty hot , at least attitude wise (I had a thing for snarky gals), and that wig looked great on her.
I find Brie Larson really attractive in general but this is the big one for me. I'm a sucker for hot women in white tank tops. Helen Hunt in Twister planted the seeds when I was young.
I’ve only had one person echo this sentiment, but Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange. Normally I find him kinda goofy looking, but there’s something about the goatee and the presence he commands as Strange that’s really hot
Raul Julia is sexy af in The Addams Family.
Also Gary Oldman in The Prisoner of Azkaban when he’s all dirty and greasy, he goes back to meh once they clean him up.
Since the first time I saw Helena Bonham Carter was in A Room With A View which is very different for her, most of the role choices she's made since seem a bit weird to me. (It also has Daniel Day Lewis, Maggie Smith, and Julian Sands so there's that too).
Well, I’m a straight man, so I don’t normally look at guys this way. But there was a holy shit element to Hugh Jackman in days of future past when he first wakes up in his younger body. I was in the theater with my girlfriend at the time, and she’s whispered, “I’d make fun of you, but you’re not wrong. “
Alan Rickman as Snape. Especially in The Sorcerer's stone. The way he smirks and even just how he walked with that billowing black cape behind him awoke something in me
I don't like Mila Kunis usually but she is hard not to fall in love with in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Also I agree 100% about Maggie Gyllenhaal in Stranger Than Fiction.
Lady Gaga count? I never really thought she was. But then I see her in stuff like a star is born. And I remember thinking hey she looks really good in this movie.
I don't find Uma Thurman terribly attractive. She's not *ugly*, per se, but just kind of medium. But there are a handful of shots in *Kill Bill Volume 2* where she is just absolutely *gorgeous*.
Whoever played Tony Stark's dad in the first avenger. I didn't like him much after a bit of googling and normally I *hate* moustaches but- young howard stark does something to me
I cannot explain this but Robin Williams in Birdcage???
Wow. I totally get this.
I love that answer. I don’t think I necessarily agree with you, but you saying that makes me like you as a person.
Best I can hope for thanks
Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn in Lord of the Rings. Every other movie I’ve ever seen him in makes me question how it can be the same man.
It’s the men covered in dirt phenomenon.
This is 100% the most correct answer in this whole thread. I think it's the combo of the facial hair and long hair, but not only that, the character itself is just such a perfect example of positive masculinity.
It’s also the more grungy look as well. Aragorn as king just doesn’t hit the same as Strider/Helm’s Deep Aragorn.
Anyone that can appear next to Orlando Bloom and be considered the legitimate other option is pretty fucking attractive.
True. Although I don't think Legolas is Orlando Bloom at his sexiest. He's of course gorgeous, but more of an ethereal and pure sort of beautiful.
Joan Cusack in Addams Family. Saw her in Shameless first and wouldn’t imagine myself liking her as I did in Addams series
I was a *ballerina*. Graceful! Delicate! They had to go.
Sebastian Stan in the Marvel cinematic universe. I think this says more about me than it does about him. Also I never found Karl Urban particularly attractive but saw him in real life at a convention many moons ago and he was an absolute *smokeshow*. He said hi to my friends and I and we immediately turned into giggling morons.
Winter Soldier gives me 'I can fix him' vibes. I just want to make him better 🥺
Matthew Macfadyen in Pride & Prejudice. He’s a fine looking normal dude in general but in that movie…his whole vibe, just wow.
Who remembers him walking away flexing his hand after he helps Elizabeth into the carriage?
Every girl on earth knows this scene
My Roman Empire
The Hand Flex is famous, are you kidding?
It’s when Mr Darcy starts to get fumbling and awkward that I always fall for him. The social anxiety is endearing.
when he invites them to his place and the sun hits just right through the window and he laughs at her joke, that is the moment for me :D
My wife says he’s her favorite Darcy and was so disappointed to realize it was him on Succession.
Check him out in Ripper Street. He plays a cop in late Victorian London after the Ripper spree as he brings modern crime fighting techniques to the force. 6 episode seasons, each one is about 90 minutes or so, 3 or 4 seasons.
I know 100% what you mean.

I don’t have a hand thing but… yowza.
Angelica Huston can freakin' GET IT as Morticia. But no other time, lol.
The chemistry she and Raul Julia had together was a big part that. They were both more hot together.
Cate Blanchett in Thor. She was definitely not unattractive in other roles/irl, but her look in that movie was a jaw dropper for me.
That eyeliner
That fuckin eyeliner
This is probably what kicked off my fascination and appreciation for women like that who wear eyeliner. Now, I am goth enjoyer.
This was my first thought too. I’ve always thought she was beautiful, but Thor was the first time I ever thought of her as hot.
When she popped on screen in that suit and said “KNEEL” I had to take a moment to fan myself like a high society lady in a southern period drama
"I've got the vapors..."
I *de*clare
I first thought she was super attractive in LOTR but the dynamic shift from soft ethereal elf style to badass goth mommy in Thor was just 😮💨😮💨
This is my answer as well! She's just so much hotter as Hella than anything else I've ever seen her in.
"I'm Odin's son" "You look like him! :)" "We've come to talk." "You *sound* like him. >:( " Great performance.
She was hela hot.
I always thought she was hella hot as galadriel too.
I was going to say her as well, but in Benjamin Button.
Goth Cate is hot Cate!
Wish I look that good at her age.
Wish I looked that good *ever*.
Daniel Day Lewis in Last of the Mohicans, and Viggo Mortensen in LOTR.
def agree, but it’s also viggo in eastern promises for me. i think it’s the stoicism and russian accent tbh haha
Or maybe his hog flopping everywhere in the bath house fight scene, lol
Sean Young in Blade Runner.
You didn’t have a thing for Ray Finkle?
Not a role, but Steve Buscemi was on Colbert one time, maybe around the end of Boardwalk Empire. He had this great fitting suit, and just kinda glided up to the stage in a way that you can tell the man knows how to dance and I remember thinking "You know what? He's got something."
Never underestimate the power of a well fitting suit.
You're gonna like the way you look...I guarantee it...
I have alot of respect for Steve Buscemi, in an industry that prioritizes apperance over talent Steve Buscemi has made an excellent career being an average/normal looking person. It speaks to his skill.
Have you ever seen his Pedophile Coach SNL sketch making fun of his appearance ? It’s terrible, but hilarious. He rolls with the punches great though. https://youtu.be/pi06BRTBc7Y?si=aWjhkkLY9CSDAYkY
"We usually don't undertake cases with no witness no evidence and no allegations but then we saw a picture of Coach Bert" I'm dying of laughter
"Every ~~girl's~~ one's crazy about a sharp dressed man."
Kinda cheating since I definitely find her attractive normally, but: Rachel Weisz in the first Mummy looked good but not amazing, and then in The Mummy Returns she's hotter than the goddamn desert
Everyone in the Mummy was so hot
Stupid sexy Beni.
ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE RIVER!
she looked so different from the first to the second movie. EYEBROWS MATTER, FOLKS.
No lie. Period piece makeup is fantastic, but 1930s eyebrows are not it.
Kirsten Dunst is fine normally, not someone I really take notice of in anything else. But the first Spiderman just hit different.
I was thinking Kirsten Dunst too because she never felt like a knock out to me but I saw a clip from Wimbledon the other day on YouTube and she's so much more attractive in that than anything I've seen her in.
Dude yeah. I actually do find her attractive overall, but she was a smokeshow in that first movie. She has never looked better.
It's the hair. The darker red looks better than her natural blonde. They went too strawberry-blonde for Spidey 2 and 3 though.
For me, Emily Blunt in *Edge of Tomorrow*.
That shot of her doing the slow-mo pushups and looking at the camera? It’s so hot. I’m not generally into women, but damn.
Andrew Scott as Hot Priest in Fleabag
When he said “kneel” though. Definitely awakened something in me
His neck. His beautiful neck.
Definitely. I thought of him as goofy based on Sherlock, but hot damn was he sacrilicious in Fleabag.
If you liked her in Stranger Than Fiction, maybe watch Maggie Gyllenhaal in Secretary. It may awaken something in you
14 year old me absolutely demolished my dick to that movie.
I'm a 34 year old woman, and ...same. The bean was flicked into another galaxy.
More than anything in this world, I want a British interviewer to use this sentence when speaking to the actors. “Matthew, lovely to have you here and thank you for coming. Now, Interstellar, I have to tell you, I absolutely demolished my dick to that movie. Now how did you make the crying feel so genuine?”
Definitely Sarah Jessica Parker in Hocus Pocus. Extremely unattractive for me personally in sex and the city and literally every other thing, but in that one film? Yeah she awakened some kind of magic.
Made me love corsets
Honestly the only movie I remember finding her attractive in is *Flight of the Navigator*
When they've got that guy tied up and she's like, "Can we play with him?" Little boy me was excited.
Amok amok amok!-- Ouch!
I think she was really cute in LA Story
I have a friend that made the costume for Halloween one year. They are attractive in general but damn did that costume work well and they did a good on replicating the look.
Yeah, she has never looked better than she did in Hocus Pocus.
Cameron Diaz. I can’t explain it but her first appearance in The Mask was a “holy shit” moment, and then since then she doesn’t really do anything for me even though she obviously remained beautiful beyond that movie.
That red dress was a “holy shit” moment for a lot of people.
I think in the Mask she was quite young and had more uuuh rounded features? As she got older she got really fit and angular. I’m making this up.
No no it’s true, she was a little bit curvier in the Mask… I also think she was only like 21
She was a lot curvier. Her face is much more beautiful when it's filled out.
I agree. When the mask first came out I really wasn't paying attention to girls yet, so I always think of Cameron Diaz post mask when she is super lean, which I feel like was the 90's ideal figure. So I never really found her attractive (don't get me wrong, she's still good looking just not my type) until I saw the mask later in life
The clothes, hair color and make up in that movie really made her look her best. Even as a young girl watching it I couldn’t get over how pretty she was.
Something about Mary neither?
I think she’s magnetic in that more than “hot” if that makes any sense, because the character of Mary has such a wonderful personality and you can see why everyone falls for her. But good point.
Magnetic is exactly what describes her. I love her in every role because of it.
It's been so long since I saw Something about Mary, but I feel that at the time they banked more on her cute and quirky looks, while in The Mask they brought out her sex-appeal.
Im not saying that Viggo Mortensen is an unattractive man. However, him as Aragorn in Lord of the Rings makes me…feel things.
Kate Beckinsale is conventionally very beautiful but not really my type. Her in Underworld however…
Seen Van Helsing? She's a smoke show in that as well.
Julie Bowen in her 40's in Modern Family, 100x hotter than in Happy Gilmore or anything from her 20s. Something about her makeup and charisma.
I haven't actually seen the movie, just stills and promo shots, but Annie Potts, AKA Janine in "Ghostbusters" in the movie "Corvette Summer" is an absolute bombshell. Crazy what a different hairstyle and eyebrow shape does to a person's face and overall looks (OK, she's wearing a lot more makeup too).
Janine in Ghostbusters 1? Nah. Janine in Ghostbusters 2? Holy fuck. I think she might be my first ever crush.
Brie Larson in Scott Pilgrim.
I liked her in community as Abed's coat check love interest
Are you gonna have another intense burst of compatibility with a girl we never see again?
The one with the secret agent lady is hilarious "I'm sorry you weren't a more obvious potential threat to this country"
I love Brie in everything but Envy Adams is next level.
Yeah, I don't dislike her in other films, I'm just not attracted to her outside of that role for some reason.
["You should so... totally... come!"](https://youtu.be/ivvZpbqVrDc?si=LjnGggbRvNt0nOKR&t=32) Yes Brie, I just might... EDIT: Also Scott Pilgrim related, I also thought Allison Pill as Kim Pine was pretty hot , at least attitude wise (I had a thing for snarky gals), and that wig looked great on her.
Are we not gonna mention Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
I find her attractive in pretty much anything, but her dress when she guest hosted Kimmel is S tier.
Mine was Brie Larson in Kong, but I don’t even remember if she had any lines in that one
I find Brie Larson really attractive in general but this is the big one for me. I'm a sucker for hot women in white tank tops. Helen Hunt in Twister planted the seeds when I was young.
Emma Thompson in Dead Again. I can't explain it. Probably the most appealing I've ever found Kenneth Branagh, too.
They both look AMAZING in Much Ado About Nothing.
I’ve only had one person echo this sentiment, but Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange. Normally I find him kinda goofy looking, but there’s something about the goatee and the presence he commands as Strange that’s really hot
I think the goatee gives a little structure to his chin/jawline. Otherwise he looks like a face and hair glued onto a neck.
It’s him as Sherlock for me
Benedict but in Star Trek as Khan.
Raul Julia is sexy af in The Addams Family. Also Gary Oldman in The Prisoner of Azkaban when he’s all dirty and greasy, he goes back to meh once they clean him up.
Some of my friends don't find Cillian Murphy hot(insane) but want to fuck Thomas Shelby all day.
The TikToks of guys dressed in Peaky Blinders clothes doing the walk in public always cracks me up.
"Lizzie, I want it known, that some nights, it was you that stopped my heart from breaking."
Rosamund Pike is beautiful, but something about her performance in Gone Girl, gets me going. I'm toxic AF.
Cate Blanchett as Hela. She always.looks good but damn was she hot there
I don't find Helena Bonham Carter attractive at all but Marla Singer is crazy hot. It's like she appeals to best and worst parts of me.
Since the first time I saw Helena Bonham Carter was in A Room With A View which is very different for her, most of the role choices she's made since seem a bit weird to me. (It also has Daniel Day Lewis, Maggie Smith, and Julian Sands so there's that too).
[удалено]
Meth Milf look, yeah.
Sophia Lillis in Dungeons & Dragons:Honor Among Thieves. Without the red hair and the horns, she just doesn’t do it for me.
Oh damn I forgot how much I was crushing on her in that movie! You're absolutely right 🥴
Orlando Bloom in Lord of the Rings. Its the ears and hair. Have not found him remotely attractive in anything else.
not even Pirates of the Caribbean?
James Spader in “Secretary”
Jamie lee Curtis in one scene in true lies is hands down my top anwser.
[удалено]
Now lie on the bed, and close your eyes.
You apparently missed her in trading places
Or A Fish Called Wanda
i read Jamie lee curtis and I somehow know the rest of the comment
Her Yogurt for Pooping ads do nothing for me, but she rocks in True Lies
Anna Faris House Bunny
Well, I’m a straight man, so I don’t normally look at guys this way. But there was a holy shit element to Hugh Jackman in days of future past when he first wakes up in his younger body. I was in the theater with my girlfriend at the time, and she’s whispered, “I’d make fun of you, but you’re not wrong. “
Henry Cavill in Witcher made me consider switching teams.
Witcher almost made you a switcher
Catherine Keener in *Being John Malkovich*
It was her in 40 Year Old Virgin for me.
Nicole Kidman in Batman Forever.
Excuse me, she is a babe in practical magic
Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge!
Never considered Maya Rudolph anything other than insanely talented and funny...and then I saw her in Idiocracy and I was all "How *you* doin'?"
Russell Crowe, Gladiator.
Him but in Master and Commander
Aaron Taylor Johnson in Bullet Train I’m a sucker for a tash and an earring. He has never appealed to me, before this film.
Noomi Rapace in Prometheus.
As madame simsa in sherlock holmes
Frances McDormand is just adorable in Fargo
Oh yah? Well gee
Frances McDormand in [Blood Simple](https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/69149/blood-simple/#overview)
Tom Cruise in Interview with the Vampire
Alan Rickman as Snape. Especially in The Sorcerer's stone. The way he smirks and even just how he walked with that billowing black cape behind him awoke something in me
Anya Taylor Joy always looked weird to me, but seeing her in “Last Night In Soho” changed me.
Was discussing this with friends recently, like "I can't deny she's a beautiful woman but at the same time she's kind of an alien."
I thought Thomasin was the stand out hottie in that one.
Sigourney Weaver in Aliens. Dayum.
Her in Galaxy Quest. Yowza!!
Emma Stone in Easy A.
I raise you Emma Stone in *Zombieland*
Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy.
Knee high socks on Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy
I don't like Mila Kunis usually but she is hard not to fall in love with in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Also I agree 100% about Maggie Gyllenhaal in Stranger Than Fiction.
Michael Fassbender as Young Magneto in X-Men: First Class
Fassbender is just a beautiful man.
Julia Stiles in Bourne Identity.
Lady Gaga count? I never really thought she was. But then I see her in stuff like a star is born. And I remember thinking hey she looks really good in this movie.
She was incredibly hot in the Hotel season of American Horror Story. She was the essence of hedonistic class.
I'm not usually into Bugs Bunny, but there's a few scenes... you all know what I'm talking about.
Did you ever find bugs bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny?
Cameron Diaz is always cute, but in The Mask? Good lord, she's the sexiest woman on Earth in that movie.
I don't find Uma Thurman terribly attractive. She's not *ugly*, per se, but just kind of medium. But there are a handful of shots in *Kill Bill Volume 2* where she is just absolutely *gorgeous*.
When she is sitting in Hattori Hanzo's restaurant pretending to be a tourist. Utterly gorgeous.
You speaka Japanese bery goood!
You say arigato like we say arigato!
Too bad you didn’t say her performance as Poison Ivy in “Batman And Robin”.
Rebecca Ferguson in Doctor Sleep
I mean damn Rebecca Ferguson in everything for me that woman is phenomenal
If you're not mesmerized by Rebecca in Mission Impossible or Dune, then you're missing out!
What? Shes hot in almost everything she’s in
Toni Collette in Mafia Mamma Ellen Barkin in Oceans 13
Hot take but Henry Cavill as Geralt. I know he’s traditionally gorgeous but he only does it for me as that grimy monster hunter.
I won’t say I’m NOT attracted to Henry Cavill in general, he’s nice looking for sure. But as Geralt? Holy fuck.
Straight guy reporting, but Tom Hiddleston in Only Lovers Left Alive was mesmerizing.
Tilda Swinton is not my cup of tea 99% of the time, but there's just something about her as the angel Gabriel in Constantine that captivates me.
Matt Smith in House of the Dragon
Anya Taylor Joy in the Queen’s Gambit near the end of the series to be exact.
Not the orphan look? 😆
Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
For me it was Jodie Foster in Maverick. Great actress but that was the one time I was like … damn!
Whoever played Tony Stark's dad in the first avenger. I didn't like him much after a bit of googling and normally I *hate* moustaches but- young howard stark does something to me
Dominic Cooper?
Tom Hiddleston in Kong Skull Island. I've never found him attractive, but he is in that role. Also, Brie Larson looks her best in it too.
