25 Most Attractive Actors

Brad Pitt (1963)

Brad Pitt has carved out a nice little career for himself with starring roles in films like "Se7en", "12 Monkey's", "Fight Club", "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", and "Moneyball". He's one of the biggest stars in the world, but lately his personal life has overshadowed his professional success. It's his obvious dedication to his large family that keeps him attractive.

Did You Know...

... Brad Pitt and Sarah Polley were originally cast as 'Russell Hammond' and 'Penny Lane' in 2000's "Almost Famous". Pitt admitted to director Cameron Crowe that he didn't understand the character and Polley dropped out due to scheduling conflicts with another film. Billy Crudup was cast as 'Russell' and Kate Hudson (who was originally cast as 'Anita', and subsequently replaced by Zooey Deschanel) was recast as 'Penny'.

Performance of the Day

Actor: JULIA ORMOND

Film: "First Knight"

Character: Guinevere

Year: 1995

Julia Ormond intrigued audiences in the mid 90s with her work in "Legends of the Fall" and "Sabrina", but it was her performance in 1995's "First Knight" that really sticks out in my mind. She played beautiful Guinevere, the woman who married King Arthur (Sean Connery), but fell in love with Lancelot (Richard Gere). She portrayed Guinevere with a mix of sensitivity and strength and was absolutely stunning to watch. I haven't seen her much these days (she played Brad Pitt's daughter in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" a couple of years back) and I hope she will come back strong.

Keeping Score

Film: LEGENDS OF THE FALL

Composer: James Horner

Year: 1994

Did You Know...

... "Facts of Life" actor Mindy Cohn is godmother to all six of Brad and Angelina's children. Here she is with Angie's brother, James Haven.

Reincarnations

Former golden couple Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are the modern-day Robert Redford and Barbra Streisand. Pitt is Hollywood's all-American golden boy, just as Redford was in the 70s and 80s. Aniston strongly resembles Streisand and both have proven that you can be attractive and sexy without being traditionally and conventionally beautiful.

***Redford was best known for starring roles in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid", "The Sting", "All the President's Men", and "Indecent Proposal". He is also known for directing such films as "Ordinary People" (for which he won Best Director), "The Horse Whisperer", "A River Runs Through It" (which starred a then unknown Pitt), and founding the Sundance Film Festival in Utah. Pitt is known for starring in "Seven", "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", "Twelve Monkeys" and the "Ocean's Eleven" films. Streisand is best known for her perfect voice, her Oscar-winning role in "Funny Girl", and directing such films as "The Mirror Has Two Faces", "Yentl", and "The Prince of Tides". Aniston became a star with her portrayal of 'Rachel' in the hit show "Friends". She has also attempted to become a box-office draw in films like "Marley and Me", "Rock Star", and "The Switch".

Flick of the Day

Film: FIGHT CLUB

Director: David Finch

Actors: Edward Norton, Brad Pitt, Helena Bonham Carter, Meatloaf, Jared Leto, Zach Grenier, Richmond Arquette

Year: 1999

Synopsis: A man with a hum-drum life meets an exciting rebel and everything changes.

Edward Norton (who is basically always good) stars as a bored insomniac. His life changes drastically when he meets soap salesman, Tyler Durgen, and chaos ensues. Brad Pitt is great, but Helena Bonham Carter is fantastic as a chain-smoking, nut-job.

Performance of the Day

Actor: BRAD PITT

Film: "Seven"

Character: David Mills

Year: 1995

In one of the creepiest films ever, Brad Pitt stars as Detective David Mills. He teams up with Morgan Freeman to find a serial killer with a pension for the seven deadly sins. I'm not a huge fan of Brad's, but he did very well in this movie, especially in the heart-wrenching finale.

*Happy 47th Birthday, William Bradley Pitt!!!

Did You Know...

...in the 80s, before he was famous, Brad Pitt dated actors Robin Givens

and Christina Applegate.

Ginger of the Week

Jessica Chastain is pretty unknown at this point in her career, but you might recognize her soon. Born and raised in Northern California, Chastain made her way to New York to attend the prestigious school of the arts, Juilliard. Her first role was in a television movie adaptation entitled "Dark Shadows". She has done bit parts in shows like "Law and Order", "ER", and "Veronica Mars". She made her film debut in 2008's "Jolene", in which she played a teenage orphan who travels across country to experience life. Up next for the beautiful ginger: "The Tree of Life" (with Brad Pitt and Sean Penn), "The Fields" (with Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Sam Worthington), and "The Help" (with Viola Davis, Sissy Spacek, and Emma Stone).

Did You Know...

... Nicole Kidman was originally signed on to play 'Jane' in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" with Brad Pitt. She dropped out due to scheduling conflicts and Angelina Jolie was cast instead. Does that mean the world almost didn't have 'Brangelina'?
