It’s unknown why this country is the home of so many talented and charismatic actors. But even the handsome men of Hollywood lose sleep because they know that stars like Kit Harington, Tom Hiddleston, and Ben Barnes all live in the world. And, of course, there are older English actors such as Colin Firth, Gary Oldman, and Jude Law that are also on their minds.
