With all the actors and actresses that have come and gone, there are quite a few that have stood out to audiences over the years.

For some, actors such as Brendan Fraser, Vigo Mortensen and Catherine Zeta-Jones enraptured them amongst others. Scroll below for a list of suggestions on the most magnetic actors that left an indelible mark on their viewers.  More info: Reddit

#1 Catherine Zeta-Jones in The Mask of Zorro.

Image source: teetnxo, Sony Pictures Entertainment eed_thelast_haw: Yes. So, so beautiful. She still is! But in these movie she just took your breath away.

#2 Before he was Tom Wambsgans abusing cousin Greg for amusement, he was Mr Darcy. I loved him, most ardently.

Image source: willturnermay, Rotten Tomatoes Classic Trailers eed_thelast_haw: I prefer Colin Firth as Mr Darcy, but that is just my preference. I think he looked more mature and therefore waaaaay more awkward at the balls ?

#3 Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. She lit up every scene she was in.

Image source: unfinished-phras, Rotten Tomatoes Classic Trailers El Cucuy: Mystic Pizza for me.

#4 Viggo Mortensen- Aragorn

Image source: keyboardsmash, New Line Cinema WingNut Films eed_thelast_haw: I never realized I even have a type until Aragorn on screen. Tall dark and gloomy. Yup. Thanks, Viggo, for frustrting ne3 during my teenage years. It's why I like Cavill's Geralt so much. A softie layered up in gloom, doom and waaaaay too much horse poop.
