Ben Barnes
Posted by editor on Sep 30, 2008
Benjamin Barnes burst into viewer’s consciousness (and female hearts) when he debuted in the 2007 fantasy movie, Stardust. Born August 20, 1981 in London, England, he only began his acting career in theater in 2004. He has previously appeared in the TV series Doctors & Split Decision in 2006. His suave good looks and heartthrob appeal has made him luckier than most newbies, enabling him to land starring roles in juicy movies. In 2007, his role as young Dunstan Thorn in the film Stardust catapulted him to the list of young hunks, and allowed him to work with such acting greats as Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert DeNiro. His role as Prince Caspian in 2008’s The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, cemented his status as an actor to watch out for. Ben just finished filming the romantic comedy Easy Virtue with Jessica Biel, and is currently filming The Picture of Dorian Gray, portraying (who else?) Dorian Gray.
