Reader’s Vote: Most Handsome Man In The World 2025

“Daddy is a state of mind,” and Pedro Pascal has the charisma to prove it. In 2025, he kept audiences hooked with leading roles in the rom-com Materialists, Marvel’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and the second season of The Last of Us.

His press tours this year have turned into a meme machine, but fans aren’t complaining. If the “internet’s daddy” wants to hold our hand to ease some anxiety, we’ll happily oblige (per Cosmopolitan).

With Avengers: Doomsday on the horizon, Pascal has cemented himself as one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars in 2025 (per Deadline).

Simu Liu continues to prove he’s one of Hollywood’s most dynamic stars. He showed off his martial arts chops in Marvel’s Shang-Chi and his comedic flair as Ken in Greta Gerwig’s Barbie.

In late 2023, Liu released his debut EP, Anxious-Avoidant, which featured a track co-written with Joe Jonas (per Deadline). He followed it with a steamy music video for his song “Warm” in 2024. Trust us, it lives up to the title.

Now, Liu is set to return to the Marvel universe in Avengers: Doomsday, slated for a 2026 release (via The National).

Henry Golding has stayed busy since skyrocketing to fame in Crazy Rich Asians. He reprised his role as Sean Townsend in Another Simple Favor and joined the action in Netflix’s The Old Guard 2 (per Variety).

With his classic charm and smooth British accent, Golding remains effortlessly magnetic. He’s set to return as Nick Young in the much-anticipated Crazy Rich Asians 2, which will debut as a series instead of a film (via Cosmopolitan).

Nicholas Galitzine has become the undisputed king of modern-day rom-coms, charming audiences in Red, White & Royal Blue, Purple Hearts, and The Idea of You. His growing fanbase spans Gen Z to millennials, and his leading-man appeal shows no signs of slowing down.

He will next appear as He-Man in the live-action reboot of Masters of the Universe, a role he described as a "wild dream come true" (per The Telegraph India).

Deadline reports that he will also star in Hera Pictures' thriller The Return of Stanley Atwell opposite Marisa Abela. His upcoming fantasy epic, 100 Nights of Hero, hits theaters on December 5, 2025, and features a stacked cast including Emma Corrin, Charli XCX, Felicity Jones, and Richard E. Grant (per Entertainment Weekly).

We might’ve skipped the usual suspects, but let’s be real, no “most handsome” list feels complete without Michael B. Jordan. In 2025, he took on dual roles as identical twins in the box office smash Sinners, which grossed over $366.7 million globally (according to the BBC).

Jordan also stepped behind the camera, directing Creed III and diving deeper into the franchise with the upcoming Prime Video series Delphi, which he will executive produce (per Deadline). When he’s on screen or behind it, we’re watching.

Manny Jacinto’s jawline could cut steel! The actor’s breakout role in The Good Place made him a fan favorite. The actor then went on to star in Top Gun: Maverick, making his mainstream cinema debut in 2024, and also starred in the Disney+ Star Wars series The Acolyte. 

The Filipino-Canadian actor played Lindsay Lohan’s drop-dead gorgeous love interest in Freakier Friday, which could be a reason he’s getting those viral choking requests from fans (per Cosmopolitan).

Theo James is a permanent fixture on every list of the world’s most handsome men. The British actor, often described as a Greek God, has evolved well beyond his breakout role as Tobias “Four” Eaton in the Divergent franchise.

James has continued to impress with standout performances in The White Lotus, Netflix’s The Gentlemen, and the Stephen King adaptation The Monkey, where he took on dual roles (per ABC News).

His timeless charm, magnetic screen presence, and rugged appeal have cemented his place on this list. Both GQ and People report that he’s in serious contention to play the next James Bond. Clearly, James’s star power and jawline are only getting stronger.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s name keeps circling the Bond rumor mill, and for good reason. With a resume that includes Nocturnal Animals, Bullet Train, and Nowhere Boy, the British actor has long been both a fan favorite and a critics’ darling.

He’s currently considered a frontrunner for the 007 role, with odds in his favor (per The Independent). Taylor-Johnson is also shooting Fuze, an action thriller directed by David Mackenzie, and stars in Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu, set to release in theaters on December 25, 2025 (per Deadline).

Jonathan Bailey ignited the “slutty little glasses” craze after wearing them in Jurassic World Rebirth. He joked to Entertainment Weekly that he knew fans were “having a hormonal explosion” over the look, and honestly, he’s not wrong.

Bailey’s 2025 resume is stacked. He starred as Prince Fiyero in Wicked, played Tim Laughlin opposite Matt Damon in the critically acclaimed Fellow Travelers, and returned as Anthony Bridgerton in the hit Netflix series.

He told The Hollywood Reporter that he was juggling all three projects simultaneously, describing the experience as an “absolute freefall” of a schedule. Safe to say, Jonathan Bailey owned this year.

Tom Holland may always be Spider-Man to some, but he’s far from typecast. In 2025, he took a sharp, dramatic turn in the psychological thriller Beneath, playing a traumatized young man, a role already stirring early Oscar buzz (per Collider).

He also returned to London’s West End for an experimental production of Hamlet that sparked mixed reviews from critics (via The Guardian). Still, Holland keeps proving he’s no one-note superhero.

Matt Bomer has been stealing hearts since White Collar and Magic Mike, but in 2025, he’s showing off even more range. He sizzled opposite Jonathan Bailey in Fellow Travelers and delivered laughs in Hulu’s Mid-Century Modern, which premiered on March 28.

Though fans once hoped he’d don the cape as Superman, the role ultimately went to David Corenswet (per Deadline). Bomer, however, remains a fan favorite.

Kim Tae-hyung, better known as BTS’s V, remains one of the most visually striking stars in the K-pop world. He became the face of Cartier’s Panthère de Cartier campaign in 2023 (per Billboard).

His solo debut album, Layover, made waves in 2024, becoming the second Korean solo release to spend seven weeks on the Billboard 200 (per OTT Play). After completing his mandatory military service on June 10, 2025, V is now gearing up to drop a new album in Spring 2026 alongside his fellow BTS members (via BBC).

Of course, Superman had to make his way onto the 2025 list of the most handsome men in the world. After supporting roles in the film Twisters and the miniseries Lady in the Lake, David Corenswet shot to mainstream stardom with his portrayal of The Man of Steel in the highly anticipated 2023 film, Superman, which premiered on March 25, 2023. 

The actor will next be seen in the upcoming Superman movie, Man of Tomorrow, which is scheduled to begin filming in 2026 for a release on July 9, 2027 (per Deadline). Oozing with handsomeness, Corenswet is already stealing hearts with his onscreen performance, and we expect nothing less from Henry Cavill’s successor. 

Italian tennis player Matteo Berrettini may be smashing his way through matches on the court, but off the court, he’s an underrated handsome man who deserves all the attention. The player has faced a challenging year, having to withdraw from the US Open due to an injury (per Tennis World USA). 

However, this tennis hottie continued to dominate both sports, and fashion magazines featured him in campaigns for HUGO BOSS while he nursed himself back to top shape (per Sports Illustrated). 

After nearly two and a half months without competing due to injury, the former No. 6 in the PIF ATP Rankings shared in an Instagram post that he would be returning to the court for the Lynk & Co Hangzhou Open.

A wildcard on the list of the most handsome men is social media’s “King of Sandwiches,” Owen Han. Apart from cooking up the most mouthwatering subs, the LA-based influencer is quite the snack himself. 

Han released his debut cookbook, Stacked: The Art of the Perfect Sandwich, in October 2024 and even showcased his suave kitchen, which serves as the filming backdrop for most of his videos, in his new apartment on social media (per House Beautiful).

The food content creator hit a significant career milestone when he was featured on the Forbes list of 30 Under 30 - Social Media in 2025.  

Bad Bunny’s steamy Calvin Klein campaign was one of fashion’s defining moments in 2025. The Puerto Rican artist has been everywhere this year, mixing music, sports, acting, and style into one nonstop pop culture blitz. His sixth album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, WrestleMania cameos, and appearances in Caught Stealing and Happy Gilmore 2 kept fans talking (via Billboard).

His 30-show residency in San Juan ran from July to September and brought an estimated $250 million boost to Puerto Rico’s tourism economy (per The New York Times).

Bad Bunny’s upcoming tour kicks off on November 21 in Santo Domingo, covering multiple countries. He notably excluded the US due to concerns around immigration enforcement and ICE raids, as he explained to i-D.

Cha Eun-woo is easily one of the most stunning faces in K-pop and K-drama. As a member of Astro, he’s wowed audiences with his looks and acting chops in hits like True Beauty, Gangnam Beauty, and Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryung.

The actor began his mandatory military service on July 28, 2025, at the Korea Army Training Center in Nonsan. Luckily for fans, he prepared a full slate of content before enlisting, including an album, movie, and drama, all scheduled for release through 2026 (per Korea Times).

Before his breakout role on Élite, Manu Ríos had already built a massive fanbase online. With a flawless face and enviable fashion game, the Spanish actor has since landed roles across both European and international projects.

Up next, Ríos stars in Netflix’s Breathless Season 2 (per Gay Times). He also headlines the upcoming horror film Rapture, starring alongside Kit Connor and Will Poulter.

Sidharth Malhotra isn’t known for his powerhouse acting, but his looks have kept him in the spotlight since his debut in Student of the Year. The former model continues to attract fans with boyish charm and a razor-sharp jawline.

Most recently, he starred in the rom-com Param Sundari, which underperformed at the box office despite being his tenth-highest-grossing film, according to The Times of India. The film earned mixed reviews, but its soundtrack was a standout (per MensXP).

Colombian singer-songwriter Sebastián Yatra has left fans in a frenzy worldwide with his romantic lyrics, mesmerizing voice, and gorgeous appearance. He released his latest album, Milagro, in May 2025, which aims to tell deep, meaningful stories and forge a genuine connection with his listeners (per Billboard). 

The Latin singer officially started his Entre Tanta Gente Summer Tour on July 12, 2025 (per La Mezcla).
