Despite Charlie Hunnam refusing to take on the role of Christian Grey in "50 Shades of Grey," the hot stud continues to wow audiences with his acting prowess.
After "Sons of Anarchy," he is set to appear in a film with Tom Hiddleston entitled "Crimson Peak," a summer release "Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur," and "The Lost City of Z, a must-watch movie co-starring Brad Pitt and Robert Pattinson.
In a recent interview with GQ magazine, Charlie dished on how Brad Pitt made it even harder for him to fit into stereotypical roles. Did he diss Angelina Jolie's hubby?
"I was shooting "Sons of Anarchy" until two weeks before we started shooting "Pacific Rim," and Guillermo said [puts on Mexican accent] 'My friend, I need you to show up looking like a man capable of saving the world!" he shared.
"I thought, 'Aw, F***' because you know, f***king Brad Pitt ruined it for everyone."
"After 'Fight Club,' the expectation of what a dude is supposed to look like when he takes his shirt off is just so high. So I said 'I'll try and make it happen.'"
The "Sons of Anarchy" star also shared how he feels about being an actor.
"You know what? Being an actor is fantastic because you get to live your dreams and all of that, but I always think it's slightly irritating when you hear from the outside world and people are like, 'Yeah, well if I was an actor and all I had to do was look good, I could be that ripped too."
"So I shot 14-15 hours a day on Sons, then I would go to the gym for two and half hours every day after work," Hunnam said.
"I work 15 hours a day and still go to the gym. Most people work eight hours a day and say 'I haven't go time to work out.' Bulls***! If you want to be super-fit and look ripped then you find the time no matter what."
