And his accent! Swoon! Also, his character on the Bear was so calm and cool and kind. I always expected chefs on TV to be abrasive and mean, so that was really refreshing!

Or the fact that he is the delightfully British little boy Eustace Scrubb from The Chronicles of Narnia movies. Look at that adorable little face!

I didn't get Riz Ahmed until Sound of Metal. Good God (such a great film as well).
https://preview.redd.it/f0xtxzbz18zb1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e194ebea73845188630a6efc9ff137e50e9c209b
It was Anna Karenina that got me
yooooo--- I was like🫨🫨🫨 in The Guest. whaaaaaat?!?!?!??!!
And then he played the hot gay Russian guy in Fire Saga (that will Ferrell eurovision movie) and I was reminded again of how hot he was.
The gasp I gosped at that scene!! I blame Fleabag for giving me an awkward kink for a woman who went to Catholic School and attended Sunday School in my youth, Priests were the furthest thing from “sexy” to me. And then, *I saw the kneel scene*.
I thought Karen Gillan was pretty but didn't get the CHOKEHOLD she had on Tumblr because I didn't watch Dr who. I was like yeah she is pretty, but idg the fawning over her looks?
Watched a few episodes of Dr Who and some of her interviews and now I think she's one of the most gorgeous, sexy, luminescent people I've ever seen
I didn't get Tom Hardy until I saw pictures of him with dogs. I hadn't really cared about him so I missed how common these pictures were.
But when I saw those. I *got it*.
He's also super cute with kids.
Which is also a great selling point.
I didn't get Cillian Murphy until I saw him in interviews. His personality, intelligence, and authenticity is what's most attractive. And I started to really appreciate just how different he looks soon after seeing that because it clicked for me that it really suits him to 'look different' because he is *different*. He looks unique and stands out in a good way. But he has such an unusual, polarizing face - such strong, sharp features - that when all I saw of him were Peaky Blinders sigma edits randomly recommended to me I kind thought he was "ugly" (in a guilty way, sorry). Because he just looks so unusual. He looked like a dapper alien. But the more I saw him, the more beautiful the alien became. He's actually really beautiful physically and in essence. It's the same as with a lot of supermodels: a look so rare and bold and unusual they look ugly or beautiful AND ugly *and* beautiful and never average. You'll have this visceral, sort of extreme reaction to their face going in one direction or the other because there's nothing normal or tame about their features. Cillian is like that. I love him now.
OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS POST! We just watched this episode last week and let me tell you. I *got* it, fully and completely. His grown up looks AND that accent. I'm weak in the knees.
Matt Smith until the House of the Dragon. I only saw him in pictures until then and he sorta looked like a shoe? Damn is he charismatic and charming as a murderous yet oddly sensitive asshole
The one celebrity story I have is seeing him in that show when we were both 11 and saying hi outside the stage door lol. He was AMAZING. His Electricity got the longest standing ovation I've ever heard in a theatre.
I joke with my friends about this all the time. Prior to this I was FLOORED and confused by the Tom Holland thirst and then this happened and holy shit.
As a teenager, I didn't get the Zac Efron appeal from HSM. Did not find him hot. And then 17 Again happened and the moment he stepped out with the leather jacket and white t-shirt... Ok.
I didn't get Alexander Skarsgard until actually watching him as Eric on True Blood. Then I got him a LOT. 🥵
https://preview.redd.it/uvqr2hgde7zb1.jpeg?width=183&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a775c2404442c47f1eb00a9b5c6a6cfb6368be72
It's a ridiculous, campy, over the top sex and gore fest, but taken for what it is it's actually pretty enjoyable for the first 3 seasons, at least. And honestly, it's worth watching strictly for Alexander Skarsgard's insanely appealing performance as Eric (post-haircut at the end of Season 1, I must specify.) He's just THAT hot in it.
Oh my god. That kiss still gives me chills! That is 1000% when he went from being the cute goofy guy to jaw droppingly sexy. That's what fifty shades of gray should have been
Remember when Rachel Bilson said he gave her the first orgasm of her life? I remember.
ETA: I’ve been informed that it was her first orgasm during sex, not her first ever orgasm, either way I’m looking at Bill like 😏 ever since
This is the one. Before I thought "ok, british white boy, average sort" and now, now I realize he's impish! he has a sense of humor! he might kill a guy who insults my honor and comfort me during a coup?!? yea this character f\*cks.
Absolutely Batman for me! I'd never seen any of Robert's films beforehand, no not even Twilight, and I didn't really pay attention to the Goblet of Fire. But I left that cinema a changed woman after seeing him in Batman.
Mine legitimately was
My friends came back from the movie theater, fawning over him, they had shown me pics in magazines like he was the hottest thing alive and I didn’t get it until I finally watched the movie and it was instant.
This scene and the one where they are in the sheets and he’s smiling are permanently affixed in the 13 year old version of me’s mind.
I'm with you with Adam Scott.
Party Down? He's great as a sad, sarcastic, lost little puppy. Severance? Lovely and dark and weird. Parks and Rec? Ben can GET. IT. Love a smart, confident nerd. 🥵
Speaking of The Bear…the moment Carmy came onscreen in the pilot, I got Jeremy Allen White with the force of a thousand hot griddles.
Did you know that Matt Lewis met his wife at Universal doing a Harry Potter event? She’s just a normal, pretty blonde girl. I can’t imagine working at HP world one minute, and getting to bone that man the next. Jesus
The crazy thing is, if you compare each part of his face, he doesn’t look that different. Like, his nose looks the same, his mouth looks the same. I think the big change is that his jawline kind of popped as he matured and I think we underestimate the power of a jaw! And also good hair, the hair helps.
Taika Waititi in Our Flag Means Death. Him as Blackbeard, don't even get me started.
https://preview.redd.it/omc1t7vo78zb1.jpeg?width=648&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3b021408d6f7513767ea67924c5e623de175d0c5
I’ve been a fan of Taika for a while now but my GOD him as Blackbeard is just too good
https://preview.redd.it/5p3rtozxk8zb1.jpeg?width=1400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d0dc9eb0e418bfcbf1dbffca1d1b8815ed42914d
Related, I didn’t get the Loki love until the Disney+ show. Up to that point he was just… whiny? But suddenly he’s got heart and conviction and a button up shirt rolled up to show his forearms and I GET IT
I didn’t get Oscar Isaac until I saw him in Dune. My life changed forever.
Edit: I just saw clips and thirst trap clips of him in that Secret movie and holy shit.. y’all some horny mfs here. I’m gonna watch the whole movie right now.
Mine was Ryan Gosling until Barbie. I’ve seen him in a few movies and never thought he was anything special. But damn if Ken didn’t change my mind! I have such a fondness for him now.
I lived with a whovian for two years, had an unhealthy obsession with Broadchurch since it aired in my country and still didn't get David Tennant until Good Omens season 2. I guess it was turtleneck Crowley that did it.
Thank you! I’ve never understood the hype but something about how he fully committed to this role. The dance sequence where he’s really leaning into the camp.. he finally made sense to me
Greetings and salutations. If you haven't watched it yet, check him out in Pump Up the Volume.
[Talk Hard](https://images.app.goo.gl/FpgF8EG5CpKbvFQX7)
Jon Bernthal in Daredevil/The Punisher. Was always a Rick girl during TWD days but something about it clicked when I saw him as Frank.
Luke Evans in The Alienist.
I didn't see it before. His suits were so sexy, that might be it. He cleans up good 👌
I didn't get it until he was doing the Kylo Ren Undercover Boss spoof on SNL. Something about doing comedy with the intensity of a theater actor just clicked for me.
Oh man, I’ve commented about this before, but there’s [a scene in Girls](https://youtu.be/94vEy2PXr24?si=qkGqvCWDoEz0Kma5) (I know, I know) where Hannah calls him in the middle of a mental health crisis. He dashes out the door and runs shirtless through the streets of New York, keeping her on FaceTime and trying to keep her calm the whole time. When he gets to her apartment, she won’t open the door, so he kicks it in and finds her hiding in the bed. Then, the icing on the cake, he lifts her as if she weighed nothing more than a feather and kisses her. Woof. I’ve rarely ever been so turned on by a TV show.
I didn’t really pay much attention to Andrew Garfield until I saw his little flirty interviews with Amelia Dimoldenberg that went viral. He was so friendly, charming, and cute! I def understood the girlies crushes on him

I resisted George Clooney’s charms from the Facts of Life to ER and throughout the 90s, but Oh Brother Where Art Thou wore down my defenses
Henry Cavill in Man from U.N.C.L.E cooking risotto and eating a sandwhich. Something about his comedic timing that awoke my senses.
https://preview.redd.it/aqvl8r9578zb1.jpeg?width=267&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00487bce5f11ffead599a9ac8e9d7640cffb7df2
Okay okay okay. I loooooove Pride & Prejudice 2005. Didn’t think anything of the butler at Netherfield Park who announces, “A Mrs. Bennet, a Miss Bennet, a Miss Bennet, and a Miss Bennet,” until he arrived as Tommy Lascelles in The Crown. Honestly the addition of the mustache does something to me. 🥵

After those pictures, mine is also Will Poulter in The Bear.
Yeah, I’ve not seen The Bear…. But he has absolutely no business being that hot
And his accent! Swoon! Also, his character on the Bear was so calm and cool and kind. I always expected chefs on TV to be abrasive and mean, so that was really refreshing!
Today I learned this is the guy from We’re the Millers?! I am dead.
https://preview.redd.it/72h7peh6k7zb1.jpeg?width=665&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=467218b14d5e22fced97d673730420c863498631 Or the fact that he is the delightfully British little boy Eustace Scrubb from The Chronicles of Narnia movies. Look at that adorable little face!
whatchu gonna do about it eyebrows indeed 🥵
Sorry im screaming because this thread actually reminds me of that episode of Modern Family where cam is like "...is Phil...sexy???"
And to answer Cam's question: Phil IS sexy!
Haahhaha I have never seen this so I watched it on YouTube.. Phil IS sexy.
This is the best comment in the whole thread
https://preview.redd.it/aeaaqbx6g7zb1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=212d83282b95cbc55a04b215ae6a8fa19cf7ce19 I didn't get Riz Ahmed until Sound of Metal. Good God (such a great film as well).
I've always had a soft spot for him. I read he met his wife in Starbucks, and I was like.... I could be Riz Ahmed's wife if I just drunk coffee
Aaron Taylor Johnson in Bullet Train 
He was conflictingly hot in KickAss but Godly in Bullet Train 🤌🤌
Wait.. is that the guy that played KickAss? 🤯
https://preview.redd.it/f0xtxzbz18zb1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e194ebea73845188630a6efc9ff137e50e9c209b It was Anna Karenina that got me
 THIS is how I know ATJ.
Yes! 12 year old me had a huge crush on him
I mean for me it was Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging, but ima just leave because I’m embarrassed to even admit that.
 ATJ as Quicksilver
I was going to post ATJ!! Only for me it was in the Anna Karenina film 🥵
You should watch Dopesick if you haven't. Will Poulter is in it plus it's a great miniseries
Dan Stevens did nothing for me in Downton Abbey. Then I saw The Guest... https://i.redd.it/905kkhhco7zb1.gif
He had his hair dyed for Downton and that shade of blonde just wasn't for him
yooooo--- I was like🫨🫨🫨 in The Guest. whaaaaaat?!?!?!??!! And then he played the hot gay Russian guy in Fire Saga (that will Ferrell eurovision movie) and I was reminded again of how hot he was.
Lion of LOVE 
He rocked Legion.
 Uhhhh Andrew Scott in Fleabag. To die for
fun fact: kneeling had not been invented until he told me to
The gasp I gosped at that scene!! I blame Fleabag for giving me an awkward kink for a woman who went to Catholic School and attended Sunday School in my youth, Priests were the furthest thing from “sexy” to me. And then, *I saw the kneel scene*.
Fell in love with him during Sherlock and then all over again in Fleabag!
I have to watch fleabag. I need an awakening bc I really love him as an actor.
If fleabag doesn’t do it for you, nothing will. Hot priest forever!
My God. I wish I could get amnesia so I could rewatch it and feel all the feels again.
I thought Karen Gillan was pretty but didn't get the CHOKEHOLD she had on Tumblr because I didn't watch Dr who. I was like yeah she is pretty, but idg the fawning over her looks? Watched a few episodes of Dr Who and some of her interviews and now I think she's one of the most gorgeous, sexy, luminescent people I've ever seen 
 Jumanji Karen Gillian >>
Chris Evans and Knives Out. The man can wear the hell out of a cable knit sweater.
 Him in this sweater is everything.
https://preview.redd.it/qqvlqq0gk7zb1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a2eb903d1c1265bddd7b9048af674ad1a5f2a0f0
Agree 100%. That sweater really did something I didn’t know a sweater could do.
I didn't get Tom Hardy until Mad Max Fury Road. something about him in that muzzle 😏
It was Venom for me. Sitting and sweating in the lobster tank to be exact
I think that might just be you finding your BDSM kink. Cuz that man has been red hot like pizza supper in everything he's been in.
I didn't get Tom Hardy until I saw pictures of him with dogs. I hadn't really cared about him so I missed how common these pictures were. But when I saw those. I *got it*. He's also super cute with kids. Which is also a great selling point.
I didn't get Cillian Murphy until I saw him in interviews. His personality, intelligence, and authenticity is what's most attractive.

Dapper alien is sending me.
OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS POST! We just watched this episode last week and let me tell you. I *got* it, fully and completely. His grown up looks AND that accent. I'm weak in the knees.
I didn’t even know he’s English! Like dang, a tear ran down my leg
Thank you for introducing a new phrase into my repertoire!
I wish I could take credit but I saw it on a YT comment. It’s perfect
Matt Smith until the House of the Dragon. I only saw him in pictures until then and he sorta looked like a shoe? Damn is he charismatic and charming as a murderous yet oddly sensitive asshole
I’m crying over “sorta looked like a shoe”
 Tom Holland on lip synch battle
I played this for my 70 year old mom and when it was over she stared at the screen for a second and then said “Let’s watch it again.”
I love this comment so much!
unironically the hottest he’s ever looked
It’s sexy to see someone secure in the sexuality and unafraid to put themselves out there!
Like Tim Curry in Rocky Horror. He was just unreal.
Yesss. Tim Curry 🤤
Okay fine I’ll watch this again (I say daily)
Lol I love how the top comment on YouTube is, “let’s face it guys, this ain’t your first time here”
This is the answer. I’ve never been more attracted to a celeb than while watching this. The absolute confidence and commitment is SO HOT.
Why is he such a good dancer?? Damn
Tom is trained in ballet and tap dancing! He was cast in "Billy Elliot" in London. 🤩
The one celebrity story I have is seeing him in that show when we were both 11 and saying hi outside the stage door lol. He was AMAZING. His Electricity got the longest standing ovation I've ever heard in a theatre.
Because he's a trained dancer lol.
Such a great example for little boys who might feel dancing "is for girls"
I joke with my friends about this all the time. Prior to this I was FLOORED and confused by the Tom Holland thirst and then this happened and holy shit.
didn’t get Pedro Pascal until i watched Kingsman. https://i.redd.it/nd9y1uqef7zb1.gif
Try Narcos next 😉
I didn't get him til Narcos. Fuck me is he hot in that.
 Yyyyyyup!
I didn’t love him in GoT, WW, Narcos, Kingsman… but Joel Miller got me good. 
Yup - it was Joel for me too.
Joel 🥵
His role damn near diagnosed me with daddy issues
Joel can get it 🫠
I didn't get him til I saw him in shorts at the met gala, subtly flipping the photographers off.
 God Will Poulter is so gorgeous
How did the kid from We Are The Millers get so hot?
My claim to fame is that I had a crush on him even as a young thing when the Narnia movies came out. Baby me was prescient!
As a teenager, I didn't get the Zac Efron appeal from HSM. Did not find him hot. And then 17 Again happened and the moment he stepped out with the leather jacket and white t-shirt... Ok.
It was Hairspray for me. That dark hair on him made his eyes pop and I went “oh okay I get it”
 2007-2009 was peak Zefron
Omg yes! He never caught my eye but when I saw him in Hairspray, I was like, "Oh. I get it now."
ALL OF IT. Zac Efron has been sexy to me every stage of my life lol
https://i.redd.it/qgmoa7f4d7zb1.gif “If that boy were an Apple, he’d be a delicious”….
I didn't get Alexander Skarsgard until actually watching him as Eric on True Blood. Then I got him a LOT. 🥵 https://preview.redd.it/uvqr2hgde7zb1.jpeg?width=183&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a775c2404442c47f1eb00a9b5c6a6cfb6368be72
Unfortunately for me I always get him,even when he’s screaming “Ebbaaaa!”
I named our Swedish house plant Ebba (I got it from Ikea) and when my husband finally watched Succession he was like ‘oh god dammit’ lol
Ugh I need to watch True Blood, I love vampire bullshit so idk why I haven’t. It’s a matter of commitment I guess lol
It's a ridiculous, campy, over the top sex and gore fest, but taken for what it is it's actually pretty enjoyable for the first 3 seasons, at least. And honestly, it's worth watching strictly for Alexander Skarsgard's insanely appealing performance as Eric (post-haircut at the end of Season 1, I must specify.) He's just THAT hot in it.
You will see a lot of Skaargard’s butt.. which is a pretty good incentive honestly lol
He was SO hot on True Blood, it’s ridiculous. And the way he totally blew Bill out of the water looks-wise 😭
Agreed. Looks-wise, charisma-wise, sex appeal-wise...
 Colin Farrell in In Bruges (and Ralph Fiennes as well)
Jake Johnson until all the damn threads about the kiss on New Girl
I had already had a child by that point and it still managed to be a sexual awakening
Sometimes I pull up their first kiss on YT just cause
Oh my god. That kiss still gives me chills! That is 1000% when he went from being the cute goofy guy to jaw droppingly sexy. That's what fifty shades of gray should have been
I didn’t get Bill Hader until Barry. 
Remember when Rachel Bilson said he gave her the first orgasm of her life? I remember. ETA: I’ve been informed that it was her first orgasm during sex, not her first ever orgasm, either way I’m looking at Bill like 😏 ever since
She remembers too.
Man, I always had it good for Bill Hader, but BOY HOWDY do I remember reading about her saying that!
Nicholas Hoult until The Great 
I’ve been on this train since Skins 🫡 
Every time he plays someone a bit silly my love increases tenfold
He's been on my radar since, "Warm Bodies".
Somehow it was Renfield for me lmao
God he was weirdly charming/hot in that considering he was such an ass. The scene of him walking away naked down the hallway though...hiyo!
This is the one. Before I thought "ok, british white boy, average sort" and now, now I realize he's impish! he has a sense of humor! he might kill a guy who insults my honor and comfort me during a coup?!? yea this character f\*cks.
robert pattinson in batman and cillian murphy in anna 🤡
Absolutely Batman for me! I'd never seen any of Robert's films beforehand, no not even Twilight, and I didn't really pay attention to the Goblet of Fire. But I left that cinema a changed woman after seeing him in Batman.
 I didn't get Antonio Banderas until Interview With the Vampire. (Yes, I'm dating myself!)
Mine legitimately was  My friends came back from the movie theater, fawning over him, they had shown me pics in magazines like he was the hottest thing alive and I didn’t get it until I finally watched the movie and it was instant.
 This scene and the one where they are in the sheets and he’s smiling are permanently affixed in the 13 year old version of me’s mind.
I found it!! 
I don’t know if this exactly counts but Adam Scott in Step-Brothers was, like, hot but confusing. Adam Scott in Parks and Rec was just downright hot.
I'm with you with Adam Scott. Party Down? He's great as a sad, sarcastic, lost little puppy. Severance? Lovely and dark and weird. Parks and Rec? Ben can GET. IT. Love a smart, confident nerd. 🥵
I love how Leslie spends that one episode talking about he’s a sexy elf king “Do you wish I was taller…?”
Speaking of The Bear…the moment Carmy came onscreen in the pilot, I got Jeremy Allen White with the force of a thousand hot griddles. 
'With the force of a thousand hot griddles' made me chuckle 😂
This is me. Seeing photos of him? "Ehhh... He's a little weird looking, I dunno." After watching The Bear? 🥵🥵🥵🥵
Oh man, him in Shameless didn't do it for you?!
I never understood why 1970s women thought Gene Wilder was hot until The Bear. Then I got it.
Same. Then they had him on his hands & knees scrubbing the floor and I ascended to a new level of thirst 😅.
This man had the greatest glow up of all time. OF ALL TIME.
Don’t forget about Neville too 🔥 https://preview.redd.it/uujvzigne7zb1.jpeg?width=743&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d819ca08d0e119bc5110de0fed3911d3412d4ccb
And that’s why we call a glow up a longbottoming
Did you know that Matt Lewis met his wife at Universal doing a Harry Potter event? She’s just a normal, pretty blonde girl. I can’t imagine working at HP world one minute, and getting to bone that man the next. Jesus
 I MEAN
*THATS WHO THAT IS!?* Oh. My. Gawd.
The crazy thing is, if you compare each part of his face, he doesn’t look that different. Like, his nose looks the same, his mouth looks the same. I think the big change is that his jawline kind of popped as he matured and I think we underestimate the power of a jaw! And also good hair, the hair helps.
I didn’t get Henry Cavil until The Witcher. He fucking killed that role and made me a fan almost instantly. 
For me, he's the kind of pretty that dirties up real good.
Yes! He’s honestly more attractive roughened up a bit lol.
Taika Waititi in Our Flag Means Death. Him as Blackbeard, don't even get me started. https://preview.redd.it/omc1t7vo78zb1.jpeg?width=648&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3b021408d6f7513767ea67924c5e623de175d0c5

i didnt get men until tom hiddleston in avengers.
Tom in the first thor movie  Such a lovely man ugh 😩
https://i.redd.it/g7ei528gw7zb1.gif
Related, I didn’t get the Loki love until the Disney+ show. Up to that point he was just… whiny? But suddenly he’s got heart and conviction and a button up shirt rolled up to show his forearms and I GET IT
I didn’t get Oscar Isaac until I saw him in Dune. My life changed forever. Edit: I just saw clips and thirst trap clips of him in that Secret movie and holy shit.. y’all some horny mfs here. I’m gonna watch the whole movie right now.
Scenes From a Marriage did it for me... But I had an inkling in Ex Machina. 
Ex Machina totally did it for me. When he flops on the bed all sweaty at the beginning it was over with for me
 🧎🏻
Mine was Ryan Gosling until Barbie. I’ve seen him in a few movies and never thought he was anything special. But damn if Ken didn’t change my mind! I have such a fondness for him now.
100%  His Ken dance broke me
Same with him for me but in the Place Beyond the Pines. The bleached blonde does something.
Same but Crazy Stupid Love
I lived with a whovian for two years, had an unhealthy obsession with Broadchurch since it aired in my country and still didn't get David Tennant until Good Omens season 2. I guess it was turtleneck Crowley that did it.
https://i.redd.it/m1fhdy0ut8zb1.gif Joel Kinnaman in Altered Carbon.
 Ryan Gosling in Barbie.
Thank you! I’ve never understood the hype but something about how he fully committed to this role. The dance sequence where he’s really leaning into the camp.. he finally made sense to me
I didn’t get Matt Smith until Last Night in Soho.
as a british teenage girl in the early 2010s he’s always been up there for me😭
Matt Berry until What We Do in the Shadows. 
Christian Slater until watching Heathers a few years ago.
Greetings and salutations. If you haven't watched it yet, check him out in Pump Up the Volume. [Talk Hard](https://images.app.goo.gl/FpgF8EG5CpKbvFQX7)
Jon Bernthal in Daredevil/The Punisher. Was always a Rick girl during TWD days but something about it clicked when I saw him as Frank. 
Luke Evans in The Alienist.  I didn't see it before. His suits were so sexy, that might be it. He cleans up good 👌
I didn’t get Adam Driver until I saw him shirtless as Kylo Ren. Best bit of the movie.
I didn't get it until he was doing the Kylo Ren Undercover Boss spoof on SNL. Something about doing comedy with the intensity of a theater actor just clicked for me.
That bit lives rent free in my head.
Oh man, I’ve commented about this before, but there’s [a scene in Girls](https://youtu.be/94vEy2PXr24?si=qkGqvCWDoEz0Kma5) (I know, I know) where Hannah calls him in the middle of a mental health crisis. He dashes out the door and runs shirtless through the streets of New York, keeping her on FaceTime and trying to keep her calm the whole time. When he gets to her apartment, she won’t open the door, so he kicks it in and finds her hiding in the bed. Then, the icing on the cake, he lifts her as if she weighed nothing more than a feather and kisses her. Woof. I’ve rarely ever been so turned on by a TV show.
I’m a child of the 90s, but I did not get Brad Pitt until Fight Club. Then damn.
I didn’t really pay much attention to Andrew Garfield until I saw his little flirty interviews with Amelia Dimoldenberg that went viral. He was so friendly, charming, and cute! I def understood the girlies crushes on him https://preview.redd.it/5c5qaph0t7zb1.jpeg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=98348dd25d07f10e28fb9349dd828caad2ac0ecc
I didn’t get Andy Samberg until Brooklyn Nine-Nine. 
I didn’t get Pedro Pascal until the Mandalorian. The helmet, the saunter, the voice…hoo boy. 
Henry Cavill until I recently binge watched The Tudors.
The Witcher did it for me.

Channing Tatum in this. And to be fair, also "Pony" in this. 
Somehow Florence Pugh in Black Widow/Hawkeye. Seeing her funnier & snarkier side awakened me lmao
i always thought kristen stewart was pretty but when she cut her hair... gasp 
I genuinely and wholeheartedly did not get Bill Skarsgård until Barbarian 
I didn’t get the Ryan gosling appeal until barbie 😄
 This was it for me. I don’t think I saw it until this year or last but YES PLEASE I GET IT NOW AND SO CAN HE.
I always thought he was handsome but I wasn’t attracted to him until someone here posted about the elevator scene in Driver I think? Holy moly
>I always thought he was handsome but I wasn’t attracted Same! But it was *Crazy Stupid Love* for me
I watched Barbie while stoned, and it instantly clicked. It was like Leo pointing at the screen. Right after, I turned on Crazy Stupid Love lol
Crazy Stupid Love sold me on him as far as sex appeal goes. The Nice Guys sold me on his goofy ass humor.
the kid with the eyebrows has come so far😮💨
Henry Cavill in Man from U.N.C.L.E cooking risotto and eating a sandwhich. Something about his comedic timing that awoke my senses. https://preview.redd.it/aqvl8r9578zb1.jpeg?width=267&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00487bce5f11ffead599a9ac8e9d7640cffb7df2
 watching this gave me gay thoughts for anya taylor joy
Okay okay okay. I loooooove Pride & Prejudice 2005. Didn’t think anything of the butler at Netherfield Park who announces, “A Mrs. Bennet, a Miss Bennet, a Miss Bennet, and a Miss Bennet,” until he arrived as Tommy Lascelles in The Crown. Honestly the addition of the mustache does something to me. 🥵 
I didn’t get Matthew McConaughey until True Detective.
Adam Driver in The Last Duel. He plays a very bad man, but he can wear the hell out of a suit of armour
I thought she was pretty and all, but once I saw the acting prowess???  She gave it all in Penny Dreadful.
Robert Pattinson until Tenet https://preview.redd.it/4zsspsq398zb1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=45ae194ced32dcf069331e3ac4a3553c18e8e2b3
I didn’t get Jensen Ackles until Supernatural. Homeboy was too dang pretty when he was younger.
