Orlando Jonathan Blanchard Bloom is an English actor. After having his breakthrough as Legolas in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, he rose to fame by further appearing in epic fantasy, historical epic, and fantasy adventure films.

He deserves to be number one! I mean Matt Damon, come on! Orlando Bloom totally dominates him! He's hot + such an amazing actor!
THE HOBBIT
LORD OF THE RINGS
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN
John Christopher "Johnny" Depp II is an American actor, producer, and musician. He has won the Golden Globe Award and Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor.
His role in a movie is often rather big. His character is often on the "loopy side" and his character being in a darker state of mind, etc. Johnny Depp is the best Character actor in history, in my opinion. He is not like Nicholas Cage or Will Smith (One of my favorites) as he can play any roll, no mater how odd, as if it was a completely different person playing the part.
Pirates of the Caribbean Movies, Finding Neverland, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Sweeney Todd.
Really Awesome. My favorites with him are Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Rango.
Are you kidding me he deserves to be no1 he is the best actor of all time matt damon and otlando don't stand achance in front of him come on people vote for jhonny depp
Christian Charles Philip Bale is an English actor. He has starred in both blockbuster films and smaller projects from independent producers and art houses. For sure he deserves a top place here, a great actor with great talent and great movies and he has many time to prove for future too
Not only is he batman but Christian bale has rocked the 2000s. He was brilliant in American Psycho and the mechanic. Bonus points for his role in The Fighter.
He should be on the top of the list. Actually his style is far better than the others on this list. "He Is King Of Hollywood"
Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, 3:10 to Yuma, American Psycho, The Prestige.
Heath Andrew Ledger was an Australian actor and director. After performing roles in Australian television and film during the 1990s, Ledger left for the United States in 1998 to develop his film career. Seriously, how can one pick Depp over Heath Ledger? That's wrong! Ledger's acting abilities are so much more than Depp and his PR team can ever have.
This man was such an insanely good actor. It's so awful that he died! I hate that I can't see more of his acting.
He was overall in my opinion the best actor who ever lived... RIP Heath Ledger- You Will Not Be Forgotten.
Shame that he died. A great character actor.
Matthew Paige "Matt" Damon is an American actor, film producer and screenwriter. He is ranked among Forbes magazine's most bankable stars and is one of the highest-grossing actors of all time. ACTION, Comedy, Drama...

Overacting, make you hate him, and other things which most of the actors do, but not BOURNE...
Bourne Movies, Ocean Movies, The Departed, The Good Shepherd, and The Legend of Bagger Vance.
A veteran character actor who delivers.
Damon is the best

Russell Ira Crowe is an actor, film producer and musician. Although a New Zealand citizen, he has lived most of his life in Australia and identifies himself as an Australian. There are a lot of great actors on this list, but I have to vote for Russell Crowe. He can either make you cheer him on or wish he were dead - and for that, I CHEER HIM ON! I can't vote for Johnny Depp because he's already so high on this list... But Orlando Bloom? Come ON! Russell Crowe should be Number One with Depp, Smith, Bale, Damon, and the One and Only Vin Diesel right behind him!
One of the greatest actors of our time. LA Confidential, Insider, Gladiator, Beautiful Mind, Cinderella Man, Master and Commander... who else could put together such an exceptional string of films all dependent on his strong character and exceptional talent.
Gladiator, A Beautiful MInd, Cinderella Man, 3:10 to Yuma.
Russell is a character actor with limits. He is wonderful when portraying fictional roles. Not as solid with sci fi themes.
