Coolest actor in recent years

yes, didn't Gerorge Clooney say he could play golf with his hands behind his back.

Fassy has pretty much shagged every young hottie in tinseltown by this stage (even if they're all Colin Farrell's sloppy seconds)

Sure that wasn't the former great leader of NK? Oh no, wait, he got like 5 holes in one in his round

Barry from Eastenders always exuded cool for me. Reminded me of young James Dean.

McConnaughy I don't know. Didn't see Dallas buyers club but in True Detective he does this over stereotype, macho, hard done by chain smoker semi intellectual, very deep kinda guy thing that is just too much for my liking. I don't buy it.

So he's playing the character exactly as it's written and you don't buy it?
I do see where you're coming from though, the character type has definitely been done ad nauseam. But what exactly do you want from a self contained (the story ends with the season) tv drama about flawed, world weary cops, in fairness?

I'm referring to his performance more than anything. I can't be arsed with crime drama generally (funnily enough, for the exact same reasons you gave) so if you manage to keep me watching your cop show right to the end then you must be doing something right. Ah well, you can't please everyone.

I will also technically have to disagree with you about Brad Pitt being consistent, I like a lot of his work but World War Z was hilariously ****e. Mr & Mrs Smith, anyone?

Sean penn is also very cool:cool:

Hands down Leonardo.

I might have said fassbender as a runner-up but after the rubbish that was The Counsellor he is dead to me.

Steve McQueen (thinking in bullit), Sean Penn, mcconaughey in dazed and confused. Johnny depp too. Oh and the dude himself, Jeff bridges!

Coolest actor in recent years. Steve McQueen died 30 years ago

Kevin spacey for me.

Gary Oldman and Jean Reno in Leon.
Johnny Depp - Always plays the nihilistic character down to a tee.
I seen a Glasgow film recently called the Wee Man, the story of Glasgow gangster Paul Ferris played by Martin Compton, the next day my brother put on a violent thriller called Piggy also with Martin Compton. Watch out for this guy we're going to see him in a few more films yet. A great actor and you could say he has a cool allure too.
