Daniel Craig
No one wanted a blond Bond, but Daniel Craig proved the critics wrong and scored rave reviews as the hot new face (and body) of the Bond franchise.
However, he didn’t arrive out of the blue.
Before his turn as the suave spy, he made a name for himself turning in solid performances as a brother, a lover, a husband, a hitman and a terrorist.
He’s the damaged goods, the sensitive rogue and the hottest thing to hit big screens in some time.
Some Voices (2000)

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001)

Sylvia (2003)

Layer Cake (2004)

Munich (2005)

Casino Royale (2006)

Quantum of Solace (2008)


This was a tough one. I hate James Bond movies, so I couldn’t go with any of them. Defiance wasn’t an option, otherwise I would have voted for it. He was pretty hot in Munich, but I went with “still ascending” in the end.
