5 Reasons Sam Worthington is the Hottest Actor of 2010
Haven’t heard of Sam Worthington? You will. That’s because this up-and-comer will be one of the hottest actors of the year: screw it, he’ll be the hottest. Remember how Robert Downey Jr. became a household name after Iron Man? Imagine that, but bigger.
Top 5 Reasons Sam Worthington is Here to Stay
Not convinced? Here are 5 reasons you’ll love seeing Worthington next year, and why you’ll continue to see him even more after.
1. He out-acts Christian Bale. It takes a strong actor to outdo Bale in his own film, who has been known to go all out for roles. Especially hot off the success of The Dark Knight. Worthington showed his acting ability by holding his own and then some against Bale and received acclaim for his portrayal of Marcus. Many critics believed he stole the show completely.
2. He has serious acting credentials. Just take a look at Worthington on IMDB and you’ll see a list of some notable films he’s acted in in the past, including Hart’s War. He’s also serious about research, as we heard he sent one of his friends down to the last Comic-Con to check out the latest in intellectual property and movie trends.
3. Clash of the Titans. Move over Harry Hamlin, there’s a new titan in town. Worthington will be starring in a remake of the 1981 classic sans robotic owl, and the trailer looks pretty awesome. By giving himself an opportunity to work with the likes of Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes and Gemma Arterton, Worthington is positioning himself brilliantly among a cast that will refine his abilities.

4. Looks. Did I have to mention it? No. But let’s face it, looks matter when it comes to building the next big acting machine. My girlfriend took one look at him and was instantly ready to buy tickets to his next movie. Don’t believe me? Just wait till he’s nominated as the next sexiest man of the year.
5. Avatar. That’s one powerful word if you know anything about Hollywood. James Cameron. Those are two more. Worthington may be the luckiest bastard in the world for landing the lead role in the movie many believe will revolutionize the film industry. We’ve already seen other studios gearing up to offer 3-D movies of their own, but nothing will compare to the impact of Cameron’s $400+ million production. Fans of Cameron are highly anticipating his latest offering since Titanic, a movie that will never be beaten at the box office. Ever.

Of course, there’s always a chance that Avatar won’t go well with critics or audiences. The movie could tank, leaving Worthington to rebuild slowly over time. It could happen. Will it? Nope.
