I see so many movies, and I watch a lot of TV, so it's only fitting that I have a few favourite actors. Here are some of them and where you can find them.
Okay, he's been in three movies so
far, but judging by the number of fan sites dedicated to him, I'm not the only
one who likes him. All I actually know about him is: born on 13th January 1977,
in England. That's the sum total of my knowledge. Getting used to seeing him not
as Legolas takes some work, but then again, I've seen LOTR 10 times.

Yes, I'm sure many of you have never even heard of this guy. Basically, he's Canadian and he's 22. And he's been on TV since he was about 13. He's cute, but he's also a decent actor, I think. But then, I don't watch his movies for his acting ability. Here's some pictures, one from the Sundance Festival, and the other one from Young Hercules.
TV Shows
Mickey Mouse Club (Yes, with JC & Justin)
Young Hercules (Spin-off of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Very
B-rate, low budget stuff. So what?)
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (one episode - "The Academy")
Breaker High
Movies
Remember The Titans (2000)(Starring Denzel Washington & Will Patton)
The Believer (2001)(Got great reviews, but was so disturbing it only showed in 3
cinemas in SA. To put it in perspective, Spider-man was shown in 99
cinemas country-wide)
Murder By Numbers (2002)(Starring Sandra Bullock. Not a very good movie for
various reasons, but Ryan made a good bad guy)
An upcoming film, but I can't remember the title. Oh well.
Short list, yes, but there must be a hundred episodes of Young Hercules out there, although the show got cancelled. Breaker High seems to be another long-running program so there's enough to get your fix.
Good sites: Er, actually, Ryan doesn't even have an official site and the fan sites that are online haven't been updated for months. Try Yahoo! for a few good pictures and info.
He's 31, from Scotland, and married. So don't get any ideas. But he's been in tons of movies so you can just watch those. If you're too young to watch Trainspotting, then Moulin Rouge is a good bet.

Okay, he used to be a total geek. Not much has changed, except that since Spider-man, his body looks really good. Also, he's 27 years old and kinda short.

Elijah Wood, now 20, has been in tons of movies. If you wanna see him looking really cute, watch BTTF2, he's about 7 years old. Deep Impact is a good movie anyway, and The Faculty is cool. And of course, LOTR.
