Stephen in Fancast 5 Sexiest Men On TV

Stephen Moyer, vampire Bill, was named one of the Sexiest Men On TV at Fancast.

Here’s what the article said:

2. Stephen Moyer, True Blood

Recently, True Blood’s headlining heartthrob declared in an interview, “I’ve always rather liked doing sex scenes. I don’t understand what all the fuss is about.”

Apparently this fellow hasn’t looked in the mirror recently. Then again, vampires have traditionally had issues with reflective surfaces…

Stephen Moyer has long been a fixture on the British miniseries scene: Castles; The Grand; Midsomer Murders…the list goes on, but given that it went on in the U.K., most of Moyer’s early projects aren’t familiar to American audiences. And no, this isn’t Moyer’s first time sporting fangs…he also did the undead thing in the U.K. series Ultraviolet, though interestingly enough, that series never actually employed the “V” word – choosing instead to brand their nightwalkers as, “Code 5”s, or “leeches,” instead. (So, does that technically make this Moyer’s first time playing a “vampire,” after all? Not to split hairs or anything…)

His recent appearances on American television – first as Sam in The Starter Wife and, more visibly, currently starring in True Blood – have finally thrust Sookie’s breathtaking and blood-sipping beau into a particularly luminous stream of Hollywood limelight. In Alan Ball’s hit series, Moyer plays Bill Compton, an atypically moral immortal who pines for a local waitress and is perpetually striving to curb his more animal instincts. It’s that romantic and gentlemanly veneer that has female fans entertaining all sorts of uncivilized fantasies.

And who can blame them?
