This year, however, Viggo rules with a landslide victory over every other guy in our 2003 poll. Just goes to prove that when it comes right down to it, forget the baby faces&#8211;we like our men manly. <\/p>\n<p><b>Sexiest Role:<\/b> Hands down, his stoic, brave Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings movies&#8211;he only seems to get better with each one. (Although he was sexy as hell as a jealous, passionate artist in A Perfect Murder) <\/p>\n<p><b>Best Quote:<\/b> &#8220;It&#8217;s always strange when you&#8217;re lying there in bed naked with someone you don&#8217;t know very well. In my opinion, actors who say that is an unpleasant thing are all full of s***.&#8221; &#8212; from the Chicago Sun-Times, May 31, 1998 <\/p>\n<p><b>Sexiest Scene:<\/b> Forget the particulars, he does it for us in just about every close-up in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, but there was one moment shot in slo-mo that captured Aragorn galloping uphill atop his stately steed, hair streaming across his face as he looked over his shoulder at the enemy closing in. Breathtaking. <\/p>\n<p><b>Physical Feature We Love:<\/b> It&#8217;s a tie between those piercing baby blues and the rock-solid square jaw that lends him a tremendously commanding, if slightly sinister, presence. <\/p>\n<p><b>In His Future:<\/b> Look for Viggo this fall starring in a movie called Hidalgo, the true story of Frank T. Hopkins, a long-distance horse rider in the Pony Express who traveled to Saudi Arabia to compete in a dangerous, global race for an enormous prize. Then of course there&#8217;s his final appearance as Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Viggio Mortensen, with 79.7% of votes for sexiest man of the year at Hollywood.com: How He Did in&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[138],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-old-special-reports"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1tLoH-6I4","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25796"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25796\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
