Born in Alabama and reared in the great city of Chicago, Michael Rooker took to the stage as soon as he hit college. Thankfully he got bit by the acting bug, because Michael has more than likely brought his hotness to one of your favorite movies or television shows. You might not know him by name, but you'll definitely know him by some of his iconic characters like Darryl's brother Merle Dixon on The Walking Dead and Starlord's adopted daddy Yondu in Guardians of the Galaxy (2014). Getting his start in the Chicago theater scene, Mr. Rooker was just a rookie thespian when he made his mark onscreen as the title murderer in Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986). Days of Thunder (1990) taught us rubbing is racing, while Michael's work as Cole Trickle's arch-enemy Rowdy Burns had us rubbing our crotches. He moved on to play assistant DA Bill Broussard in JFK (1991), Sherman McMaster in Tombstone (1993) and mountain Ranger Hal Tucker in Cliffhanger (1993) before the ruggedly handsome actor made his nude debut by showing his butt along with a brief shot of sack, when his towel dropped while he was shadowboxing in the stoner comedy Mallrats (1995). After seeing his balls but no dick in the mall flick, Michael went though a cop phase in stuff like The Bone Collector (1999), Replicant (2001) and the TV show Thief, before landing his Walking Dead role in 2010. Guardians came along in 2014, though we much preferred 2017's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2, since it let us see his bare but blue chest. Even though both those big roles killed him off, Michael bounced back in Love and Monsters (2020), F9: The Fast Saga (2021), by playing Savant in The Suicide Squad (2021), and is set to play a mechanic named Buddy in Fast X (2023). Let's hope we get some scenes of sex, fast. Michael Rooker's a looker!
