Ben Barnes - Gorgeous!

Ben Barnes, looking drop dead gorgeous, at Toronto Film Festival promoting Easy Virtue. He also had sat down recently with Interview magazine:

Looking at 15-story high posters of yourself (for Prince Caspian) seems like the perfect grounding for playing a character like Dorian Gray. There have been some very interesting parallels. I don’t really see the point in making a film unless you can think of a good reason to do it. We live in this celebrity-obsessed, youth-obsessed culture, and it just seems to make a lot of sense to make this Dorian Gray film right now. Especially for me, as somebody who’s…I don’t know if “on the brink” is the right term, but sort of at the beginning of getting attention from the media and from other people. Dorian Gray is also somebody who, at the beginning, doesn’t want to be looked at, doesn’t really want to be noticed, but then begins to realize the power of youth and the power of people wanting to be around him. Obviously it goes very dark, which I’m hoping in real life my part won’t. I supposed you have to be aware, on some level, of the attention being focused on yourself even to accept a part like Dorian Gray.

Here are a couple of the drool-worthy photos from Interview magazine!
