Is there anything Rupert Friend can’t do? The British beauty can act, write screenplays and lyrics, direct, produce, and excite us to no end! After watching Marlon Brando and Daniel Day-Lewis perform onscreen, Friend decided to follow in their famous footsteps. As such, he trained at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London before making his film debut alongside Johnny Depp in The Libertine (2004). The racy historic flick earned Rupert the title of Best International Newcomer at the Ischia Film Festival. The rising star then portrayed George Wickham in the period piece Pride & Prejudice (2005), Prince Albert in The Young Victoria (2009), and Theo van Gogh in At Eternity’s Gate (2018). Even though we love seeing Rupert in costume dramas, we’d rather see him out of costume! Luckily, the 6’1” stud touted his bare torso when he played CIA operative Peter Quinn on the political thriller Homeland (2012-2017). If that’s not hot enough, the topless hottie revealed his raw rump as well as his same-sex preferences for Junes Zahdi on the CBS All Access series Strange Angel (2018-2019). But not before he made his nude debut in the movie Jolene (2008). The R rated romance features Jessica Chastain, Dermont Mulroney, and Rupert’s naked T&A! The following year, Friend showed off his sense of humor (and his nude booty) when he starred opposite Michelle Pfeiffer in the rom-com Chéri (2009). This year, Rupert will take on two mini-series (Anatomy of a Scandal, Obi-Wan Kenobi) which will make fans maxi-pleased!
