Do you find Joel Edgerton attractive?

He has very unusual looks.

As if he has had an eye job, but I don't think he has.

I don't know what to make of him.

I'm curious what others think about his looks.

When he was younger, yes. Baz Luhrmann was clearly madly in lust with him when he made "The Great Gatsby"--there's a long take of the Buchanan mansion that ends with this incredible shot of Edgerton's ass as he walks into the house.

I think it's fascinating, though, that Edgerton clearly has a brain and has since been much more interested in being known for that than for his great ass. He's directed films and written screenplays... clearly he has more to offer than I would have thought.

He used to live near me before his career took off. Really friendly neighbourhood guy. And as often with people on the screen - very short.

Great underrated actor.He was spectacularly effective as a mentally- damaged -beyond- repair weirdo in The Gift. Really good and creepy performance. The film was only released in 2015 but I don't think it would be made today. At least not without significant plot revisions.

I liked his body in RED SPARROW.

Crap Aussie actors who find fame, fortune and adulation in America. No surprise.

Yes. King Arthur is one of the worst movies that I watch just for him and Hugh Dancy.

Age suits him.

He should be my type: gruff, beard-y., effortlessly masculine...

And yet there's something oddly sexless about him.

I think it's part of why he's never become a bigger deal in the US.

R9 He's pretty sexual in that R8 clip!

His brains and wit make him more attractive . Brilliant under appreciated actor director and writer.

The Gift is one of my favorite films. I don’t understand why R 3 said it would not be made today without plot revisions . The « weirdo ´s » character is well developed — history of abuse and being bullied. Extremely interesting between him and Jason Bateman’s character, who turns out to be the truly deranged sicko, to the surprise of his wife and colleagues .

It’s on Netflix now.

Edgerton equally brilliant in «  Wish you were here . »

I don't know her

Boy Erased is a film I want to admire but I find it so detached and clinical. Maybe because Edgerton is not gay. I don't know. It lacked something.

He was hotter a few years ago.

R11 Well I agree that The Gift is an excellent psychological thriller. I'm guessing that a possible implied rape ( though I don't believe it actually occured) of the female character to punish the male for destroying Gordos life would not have been a plot point today. Though I could be wrong.

Joel Edgerton is very HOT!

by Anonymousreply 16June 1, 2022 6:55 AM

Talented guy but OP is right, there's something uncanny valley-ish about his features.

by Anonymousreply 17June 1, 2022 7:43 AM

He's cute but he has had an old man face since his 20s.

Are you Australian? Why would you say that?

I think Joel is a very decent actor.

And it has nothing to do with his nationality.

I loved him as "Uncle Owen" in Star Wars.

He was a bit chubbier back then.

I still don't know what's up with his eyes, though.

I think Joel is a good actor too and I also really like him as Uncle Owen, so there.

He should have been Oscar nominated for Loving.

Kinky Boots!

He played that role of "Charlie," perfectly.

by Anonymousreply 22June 3, 2022 7:56 PM

I used to live near him and we chatted a few times. Is shorter than expected and has a REALLY big face/head. Never quite seemed to crack it in the way that his publicity implied he would.

by Anonymousreply 23June 3, 2022 10:08 PM

Was he cool?

by Anonymousreply 24June 3, 2022 10:18 PM

R23, that could be why he looks so strange on camera.

He must look even more strange in real life.

by Anonymousreply 25June 4, 2022 8:53 AM

R24 He is very cool in that "actor" way. Sort of a nonchalant, low-vibe, counter-culture but not really person. Not handsome in real life, but you could tell he would photograph well because of his huge face.
