With his Count of Monte Cristo looks, gorgeous body, and sexy British accent, Ben Whishaw is the kind of unobtainable gay guy that makes your Grindr feed look like a box of Ursula the Sea Witch's shriveled merpeople. Those stormy blue green eyes! That head of hair! His forehead has basically peaced the fuck out. The 35-year-old ball of sex has been acting for over 15 years, but his role as Q in the Daniel Craig James Bond reboot flicks catapulted Ben into the spotlight. Not that this is a scientific measure of popularity, but on IMDB he's currently at 73 and his chart thing is green. That's pretty damn good! You know what's sad? Hot actors hovering in the top 5000 on IMDB. Like my dear Jonathan Tucker.
Unfortunately Whishaw's Ben taken, entering into a civil union with his boyfriend Mark Bradshaw in 2013. Before then, Ben was hesitant to come out publicly, and in multiple interviews has given honest and inspiring accounts of his coming out story. Ben's role as Q in the blockbuster James Bond franchise spurred some conversation about gay actors playing straight roles, to which Whishaw said: Get ready for an education/eat my dick. Via OUT:
With gay characters being played by straight people, straight characters being played by gay people, come on, we’re actors. I do not understand what the problem is. Actors play all sorts of things. I’ve played murderers, journalists and kings – I’m not any of them. The whole thing is a fiction, it’s about imagination, it’s play. I am baffled to why it’s such a big thing.
In the 2015 BBC2 five-part television series London Spy, Ben Whishaw embraces his gay side by getting it on with Edward Holcroft in one of the year's most boner-inducing gay sex scenes. It's a lot of spit swapping, moaning, writhing, and features four of the plumpest cheeks and two of the most welcoming cracks on the small screen. Scandal alert: Some prim and promer Brits tried to have the show taken off the air due to this sex scene. I guess the U.K. has One Million Mums. Here's the fucking.
