Kingsley Ben-Adir (not to be confused with Sir Ben Kingsley) is a smoldering star who can heat up fans on both sides of the pond! Born in London, the ebony thespian graduated from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2011. No doubt, he’s following in the famous footsteps of his acclaimed alumni Daniel Craig and Ewan McGregor. After performing in Shakespearian plays (A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Much Ado About Nothing), Kingsley nabbed a bit part in the American blockbuster World War Z (2013) starring Brad Pitt. Bigger roles in Trespass Against Us (2016) with Michael Fassbender; The Commuter (film) with Liam Neeson (2018); and King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017) with Charlie Hunnam and Jude Law followed. Kingsley then exposed his… sense of humor in the holiday comedy Noelle (2019). The British babe is so talented, he portrayed American activist Malcolm X in Regina King’s film adaptation of One Night in Miami... (2020) alongside Aldis Hodge, Leslie Odom Jr., and Eli Goree. Meanwhile, on the small screen, Ben-Adir could be seen in the crime dramas Vera (2014-2018) and Peaky Blinders (2017-2019). Yet we prefer his topless turn on The OA (2019). Netflix’s sci-fi saga features Jason Isaacs, Brit Marling, Emory Cohen, Patrick Gibson, Will Brill, and Kingsley’s chest and drawers! If that’s not skintastic enough, check out Hulu’s comedy series High Fidelity (2020). Fans will be streaming when they see Ben-Adir banging Zoë Kravitz on the floor. We can’t see his crown jewels, but his bare back is King-sley!
