Hollywood's Hottest Hunks Through The Years
Where would the movie industry be without the Hollywood hunk? Ever since the very first films, people have queued around the block to see the most attractive men on the big screen. We love them for not only their good looks, but their charisma and their talent as well. Here’s a list of 40 of the hottest men from every era of Tinseltown.
1. Clark Gable
Clark Gable was, to put it simply, one of the biggest movie stars who has ever lit up our screens. You may have seen him in Gone with the Wind, or his last movie, The Misfits.
Doris Day reportedly once said of him, “He was as masculine as any man I’ve ever known, and as much a little boy as a grown man could be — it was this combination that had such a devastating effect on women.”
2. Cary Grant
Cary Grant was born under the unassuming name of Archibald Leach, and he had a very humble childhood. But he also had good looks, and as he grew up he was able to use them to his advantage in the entertainment industry.
Grant passed away in 1986 leaving an incredible legacy behind him. He had been nominated for multiple awards, won a Kennedy Center Honor, and made his mark as one of the biggest stars to ever conquer Hollywood.
3. Humphrey Bogart
Humphrey Bogart began his career on Broadway before becoming a film noir star. To this day, his face might be the first one you think of when you picture a detective from this genre.
On the set of the 1944 movie To Have and Have Not Bogart fell in love with Lauren Bacall, a woman over 20 years his junior, and they ended up getting married. But his being tied down didn’t stop women the world over lusting for Bogart.
4. Marlon Brando
Regardless of whether or not he’d been handsome, Marlon Brando would surely have been remembered as one of the greatest actors of all time… but the good looks certainly didn’t hurt!
Brando’s career took a bit of a downturn in his later years. He put on weight from the stress of life in the spotlight, and he began to act erratically. That didn’t tarnish his legacy as a tremendous actor, though.
