Famous men looking better with age

For many male celebs, their already alluring bodies and faces gain distinction and grace with the years. Like a fine wine, the older they get, the tastier and more complex they seem. For one, this is definitely the case with Brad Pitt.

Downey Jr. was born in 1965 and considered an attractive man from the start of his acting career. However, his problems with alcohol, drugs, drunk driving and speeding, turned the spotlight away from his good looks and toward his bad behaviour.

The actor's decision to play Tony Shark in the the 2008 adaption of 'Iron Man' changed his life and put a new spin on his journey to success. The role inspired him to reflect, not only on his physical health and appearance, but also on his maturity and decorum. From then on, he has become one of the most sought after and compelling men on the planet.

Hugh Jackman, born in 1968, has always been both a heartthrob in the looks department as well as a tremendous talent.

As the years go by, the Australian-born actor has evolved like a fine wine. Thanks in part to his dedication to fitness, he has starred in roles like 'Wolverine'.

The same goes for Mark Ruffalo. At first he was known solely for his high quality acting skills, but now he has also become an object of desire.

It was the transformation he underwent for his role as 'Hulk' in the 'Avengers' movie, as well as his starring role in 'Now You See Me' (2013), that has placed 52-year-old Ruffalo in the category of most desirable actors in Hollywood.

Though it may be hard to believe, Chris Pratt, born in 1979, once strugggled with obesity. The actor who never really matched the classic idea of celebrity beauty, reached nearly 21.3 stone at some point.

Pratt's decision to adhere to a strict diet in order to get leading roles in 'Guardians of the Galaxy' (2014) and 'Jurrasic World' (2015), has made him one of the most desirable male actors today.

Gael García Bernal, is, without a doubt, one of the most handsome Mexican actors today. He has not only conquered the Latino but the global Hollywood audience as well.

His starring role in 'Mozart in the Jungle' highlights the refinement of Bernal's current good looks. Born in 1978, his once dark hair is now sprinkled with silver and lends even more charm to his already beautiful face.

Joaquin Phoenix, born in 1974, has always been somewhat of a mysterious persona to the public eye. At the same time, he demonstrated an acting talent that made him unmissable in Hollywood.

Since his second Oscar-winning performance in 2019, starring as 'Joker' in a psychological drama by DC Comics, Phoenix is one of he top Hollywood hunks in the media. He may seem uninterested in being a heart-throb, but his grey beard and expressive eyes make him so anyway.

Matthew McConaughey's unpretentious yet charming style has made many viewers fall for him. Remember 'How to lose a guy in ten days', nearly twenty years ago? Of course there's no doubt about his acting talents either: in 2013 he won an Oscar for his role in 'Dallas Buyers Club'.

The allure of the actor, born in 1969, has only increased over the years. Sometimes he wears glasses and looks sophisticated. His longer hair and deep voice make him one of the most handsome actors in Hollywood today.

Bradley Cooper has inspired sighs of delight from audiences ever since he appeared in movies like 'The Hangover'. His blue eyes are legendary.

Nowadays, the actor, born in 1975, is one of the sexiest stars in Hollywood. The years have added a touch of mystery and maturity to his good looks. We can see that clearly in 'A Star is Born' (2018).

George Clooney, born in 1961, has always been very popular as a TV and movie actor. For nearly three decades, he's been considered one of the most attractive actors in the Hollywood industry.

We can safely say that nobody has stolen his place in all these years. Clooney still makes the public swoon despite approaching his 60th birthday. Grey (facial) hair looks great on him.

Javier Bardem possesses one of the most enigmatic faces in the industry. Some say he looks unattractive, while others find him sexy. It's the mystery of his face, voice, and body that has led so many fans, including his wife Penélope Cruz, to adore him.

Over the years, the Spanish actor, born in 1969, has captivated us more and more with his unique allure. He is a great example of an actor who has aged like a fine wine.

Colin Firth has always been considered one of the most handsome English actors. His troubled gaze in BBC's 1995 'Pride and Prejudice' series got many viewers hooked immediately. No wonder Bridget Jones kept referring to him as 'Mr. Darcy' in her diary!

Time has treated Firth well. Born in 1960, he possesses a subtle air of kindness, sophistication and seduction that place him at the top of many best-looking-celebrity lists.

Gerard Butler, born in 1969, won over viewers with his great physique and beautiful eyes. He became famous as King Leonidas in the movie '300' (2006).

Since then, his popularity has risen even more. Today he is a mature actor who charms us with his gaze, his manly presence, his athletic body and his impressive stature, measuring 1.90.

Awesome abs! Muscular men of Hollywood

Ricky Martin, born in 1971, got quite a lot of positive attention despite having an acne problem that left him with some facial scarring.

Having a few decades behind him, Ricky Martin now grows a sexy beard that helps him hide the scars from the past. Thanks to his mature appearance he is one of the most handsome Latino singers in the world.

Chris Evans has always been the typical Hollywood heartthrob thanks to his boyish goodlooks and perfect smile.

The actor, born in 1981, now radiates even more star quality thanks to the physical transformation he underwent for his role as superhero Captain America.

His musical talent and boyish looks allowed Enrique Inglesias to conquer nearly every musical market and draw in a legion of fans.

His boyish cheeks have changed into a mature profile, making the singer from 1975 more attractive than he used to be. Becoming a father of two with his partner, the ex-pro tennis player Anna Kournikova, has also made him all the more interesting.

The Australian actor from 1983 became one of the sexiest superheroes when he stepped into the shoes of Thor. His character forced him to develop his physique and make an impression on more and more fans.

The most attractive male screen characters of the decade

Ben Affleck, born in 1972, has always been handsome on the silver screen, although his young looks made him a bit plain in comparison to others.

Nobody can deny, however, that over the years Ben Affleck has gained in elegance and intrigue. The actor struggled with relationships and alcohol addiction, but instead of hurting his appearance they gave his presence and gaze a fascinating depth.
