Our latest poll is finished and the readers of HOLLYWOOD SPY have proclaimed their BREAKTHROUGH STAR OF 2011! It's Luke Evans with amazing 36% of votes, followed by Michael Fassbender (23%) and Henry Cavill (21%). Welsh star
Luke Evans really did have a great year in 2011 putting his name in golden letters on the movie map. He shined in two big roles - as super charming Aramis in
THE THREE MUSKETEERS stealing the show from
Orlando Bloom and
Ray Stevenson, and then as proud and powerful Zeus, king of all Gods, in Tarsem's mindblowing epic
IMMORTALS where he starred next to another breakthrough star and his good friend
Henry Cavill. The introduction to this marvelous year of his career was year 2010 when he actually drew attention with delightful and expressive role in charming comedy
TAMARA DREWE and with another of his Godly roles - Apollo in blockbuster epic
CLASH OF THE TITANS.
When it comes to 2012, he will appear in following projects:
NO ONE LIVES, about a gang of ruthless highway killers who kidnap a wealthy couple traveling cross country only to shockingly discover that things are not what they seem,
ASHES, in which he will appear alongside
Jim Sturgess and Ray Winstone,
THE RAVEN, next to John Cusack in this fictionalized
account of the last days of Edgar Allan Poe's life, in which the poet pursues a serial killer whose murders mirror those in the writer's stories,
THE AMATEUR AMERICAN, about an American in Paris who is framed for murder,
THE HOBBIT AND UNEXPECTED JOURNEY, in which he plays Bard, the leader of Men, and he will also appear in
the second one as well
THE HOBBIT THERE AND BACK AGAIN which premieres only in 2013. This year he was also in the run for the royal role in
ARTHUR AND LANCELOT but he didn't get it, and the film is currently on hold.
His profoundly charismatic and almost magnetic presence in films has made him the breakthrough star of 2011 bringing him thousands of fans around the world. Surrounded with fame and glory, Luke has remained a very polite and warm person, which you can see if you read the comments of his biggest fans bellow. HOLLYWOOD SPY has himself seen this warmth and kindness of Luke's since Luke has offered us his support a number of times throughout last year. Here's why his biggest fans love him:

I love Luke first because of his talent, he can play so many different and varied characters brilliantly, from muscials to mythology. Not many can say that. Most importantly, I love the person he is, I think what I like

These are the reason why a part of my heart will belong to the awesome Luke Evans from here to eternity.
