1. Bradley Cooper
Bradley Cooper was named the sexiest man alive by People Magazine in 2011. And we certainly can’t disagree with the magazine when he’s dazzled us with his sexy hair and his charming smile, which he has showcased in movies like Valentine’s Day and He’s Just Not That Into You. No one can deny that he is a very handsome actor.
However, Cooper’s shown us that not only can he develop great chemistry with the ladies in romantic comedies (and perhaps guys, too) but he can also entertain us, like he did in The Hangover, which was a huge success at the box office. Cooper’s succeeding roles have established that he’s not afraid to handle serious characters either, if the script required it. Think of movies like Limitless and The A-Team.
While I’ve enjoyed watching his past movies, I must say that it’s his performance as Patrick Solitano in Silver Linings Playbook that really emphasized his range of acting, due to the nature of his bipolar character. Cooper handled the role with an exquisite grace that, in the end, scored him an Oscar nomination for Best Actor. And I’m certain that this is just the beginning to the path of his success.
And there you have it. Of course, there are many more actors that can be added to this list who have more than just their pretty faces. These are just a few of them. Let me know which other actors you think who have proved that beauty is only just the surface when it comes to acting.
