The Top 5 Hottest Latino Actors Right Now
Every once in a while, it's okay to take in a little bit of eye candy. And that's what we have right here for you, ladies and gents: pure, unadulterated eye candy of the Latino actor variety.
These five Latino actors have everything a good leading man could need -- poise, charisma, and acting chops that could slice you in two. Here's to our five hot Latino actors.
Don't drool too much; your keyboard might stick.
Diego Boneta
Diego Boneta is a Latino double-threat. He's not only a lauded actor, but a singer as well, and both his acting chops and his vocal prowess couldn't be more legit. Best known for playing Rocco in the Mexican soap opera Rebelde and Javier on CW's 90210, Boneta has also starred in films like the 2012 big-screen movie Rock of Ages.
Boneta was named Cinemacon Rising Star of 2012 and won the ALMA Award for Best Male Actor. He was recently named one of US Weekly's "12 Breakout Stars of 2012" and awarded GQ Latin America "Actor of the Year."
Gael Garcia Bernal
Gael Garcia Bernal is slowly becoming a household name in America, but he probably should have been long before this. After all, the Mexican actor has been in the limelight since he was but a child, acting in plays alongside his thespian parents.
When he was fourteen, he starred in a soap opera called El abuelo y yo, and has appeared in film school exercises and short films, including De tripas, corazón, which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Short Film.
Bernal is best known for that breakout foreign film Y Tu Mama Tambien, which was basically some of the best acting we've seen from the star. He's hot for a reason, folks, and if you have somehow missed the movie all those years back, it's time to remedy that, fast.
Andy Garcia
There's something mysterious and quite intriguing about Cuban-born Andy Garcia, and it's not just his acting chops. He's a master at his craft, hollowing out deep, worn characters that beautifully fit exactly what the role calls for, but it's hard to know just who Garcia is behind the mask. He's notoriously private and ruggedly good-looking, but that's about all he lets out for the public eye to see.
That's about enough to convince us, though, especially when you consider Garcia's incredible reel of clips he's built over the years. The Godfather, When A Man Loves A Woman, and Ocean's Eleven, just to name a very, very few. He's pretty much anything one could want in a hot actor, and for that, we'll take his aloof demeanor. It just adds to the mystique.
Adam Rodriguez
Magic Mike, anybody?
So Adam Rodriguez's breakout role was none other than the long-running crime drama series CSI: Miami, which was perfect for the Puerto Rican-Cuban cutie. He's since moved on to bigger screens, with his most recent role starring in the stripper biopic Magic Mike. It's a far cry from the investigation drama, but ultimately, there's nothin' wrong with a bit of shirtless Adam Rodriguez, now is there?
Javier Bardem
Epic films like No Country For Old Men have earned Javier Bardem all of the name recognition the Spanish star could possibly want from his worldwide audience. The actor has been working his craft since the tender age of 6, when he appeared in El picaro, and he's now got over 25 movies and numerous awards under his belt.
Javier's jarring, passionate performance as the persecuted Cuban writer, Reynaldo Arenas, in Before Night Falls that will long be remembered as his breakthrough role, in which he received five Best Actor awards and a Best Actor Oscar nomination for his portrayal.
