Eddie Redmayne v. Damian Lewis v. Luke Evans: who would you rather?

I was just going to do a simple “Who Would You Rather?” between Damian Lewis and Eddie Redmayne, but then I got sidetracked when I saw the photos of Luke Evans. Luke has been popping up a lot on red carpets lately, and I guess I should start paying attention to him because he’s really my type too. Dark hair, light eyes & an accent = my type. Those men will be my downfall, mark my words.

Anyway, these are pics from last night’s London Evening Standard British Film Awards in London (obviously). Damian attended the event with his wife Helen McCrory, and Luke Evans and Eddie Redmayne came without dates (or so it would appear). Luke is probably best identified as “the new Orlando Bloom” maybe? I don’t know, I haven’t seen him in anything, but he’s got a big part in the new Hobbit movies, he was in The Immortals and the stupid-looking revamped Three Musketeers movie a few years ago. And he’s in the latest installment of Fast & Furious. So… he’s “arrived”. And he’s a welcome addition to my Dong List, although he looks like a heartbreaker.

As for Eddie… he continues to be the Best Dressed of the Awards Season. This young man can wear the hell out of a suit, can’t he? He could teach a master class in dressing for an awards season. So… who would I rather? Damian first – fast and dirty. Then Luke. Then Eddie for forever? I don’t know, I can’t decide!

    Eddie. Magnetic green eyes and freckles: delicious.

    • Aiobhan says:

      It would be a tie between Eddie and Luke. I used to think that Eddie was the ugliest man that I had seen in a while but the more people talk him up I am slowly starting to see the appeal. He is a snazzy dresser as well.

  2. Ms Kay says:

    Luke hands down. Funny I watched The Immortals last week and gosh it was bafflingly crap despite a shirtless Henry Cavill, Luke as Zeus was the best part of the film!

    • Miss Kiki says:

      Isn’t Kellan Lutz in that?

    • T.Fanty says:

      Is that enough to make me watch The Immortals? I want to see it, but I’ve heard that it’s so, so bad.

      • GoodCapon says:

        If you want some eye candy and adore Henry Cavill then yes, you should watch it. But the plot is a big MEH.

    • Ms Kay says:

      @ Miss Kiki yes Kellan Lutz is in there as another God, call him Kellan Lutz God. I was preparing myself to laugh at him… and he actually does a tad convincing job than Cavill (can’t believe I’ve just said that)!

      @ T. Fanty Eh. Only the fight scenes are a tad entertaining and all the Luke/Zeus scenes. The rest is just… Urgh! The pace, the acting… *facepalm*

    • Miss Kiki says:

      Actually ladies I’ll leave you to it. I just checked it out on IMDB, whilst I could deal with Kellan ‘Kellan Lutz’ Lutz Isabel Lucas is a pretty terrible actress and should never have left Home and Away. This and the fact that my lady boner for Henry Cavil has officially been declared flaccid.

      • T.Fanty says:

        I think I might have to follow Miss Kiki’s lead and stay far, far away from that one. Losing two hours of my life is one thing, but losing enough perspective to find Kellen Lutz tolerable is just too much.

    • V4Real says:

      I’m loving this European invasion today. These guys, Idris and even Jason. But for this post I gotta go with Eddie. I want to suck on those lips

      • Miss Kiki says:

        Really? His lips are one of the main reasons that I can’t quite fall madly in love him.

      • V4Real says:

        Really? I love those pouty lips on Eddie. Even though my favorite set of lips belong to Chris Evans; I can suck on that bottom lip of his all day.

  3. T.Fanty says:

    If I’m really good, can I have them all?

  4. Erinn says:

    Luuuuukkkeeeee.

    I’m embarrassed to say this, but I honestly had no idea who these guys were. They looked familiar but I honestly, did not know which was which. *hangs head in shame*

  5. marie says:

    both Eddie and Luke, I will leave Lewis to the others.

  6. Miss Kiki says:

    Ok firstly I’m way to attracted to Damian Lewis, like this is becoming a problem.

    RedCarp is just taking the piss now, there has not been a single carpet where he has not brought his A game. The eyes, the cheekbones, the freckles and those pocket squares. What a guy.

    Luke Evans? Not so much.

    • T.Fanty says:

      Can I just throw in there that I’m developing a total girl crush on Helen McCrory? She just seems like she kicks ass. Deborah Lee Furness should take note.

      • Miss Kiki says:

        Helen McCrory is fantastic, for the longest time I wasn’t aware that she was married to My Ginger.

        Have you noticed DLF always has shoe trauma? I have nothing bad to really say about her personally but her shoes? Euughh horrible. On the other hand I’ll take her over Jon Hamm’s severely toxed partner.

      • T.Fanty says:

        It’s not just the shoe trauma. It’s the eternal black pants and tunic and severe bleach job that make her look like a middle aged secretary at a wedding. McRory is gorgeous and totally rocks the older woman look.

        And to the people below, dismissing her as smug: I find her positively restrained. If I had unlimited access to a hot, posh ginger (the other one, Miss Kiki), I’d be wearing the t-shirt and ringing my bell.

    • j.eyre says:

      Enjoy your lunch, ladies. I see it’s British fare today (with a side of Scandinavian?)

      • T.Fanty says:

        I know! CB has been good to us this week, and it’s only Tuesday. While I welcome a full week of extremely hot men, I am a little concerned as I have a paper due in a few days, which isn’t getting written.

  7. GoodCapon says:

    Damian is not my type and Luke Evans is a poor man’s James McAvoy, so it’s Eddie for me!!!!

  8. MisJes says:

    I’ll take Eddie, yesterday, today and tomorrow!

  9. Tessa says:

    Eddie

  10. Lia says:

    Tom Hiddleston for the win.

    • Ms Kay says:

      Haha oh dear… How the hell is related to the topic to end up here?

      • LAK says:

        totally projecting on @Lia’a motives however there is a connection between all of them because they are all Old Etonians bar Luke Evans.

  11. zannoub says:

    hey Kaiser, sorry to ruin it for you, but I think that Luke would stand next to you for the dong audition rather than participate in yours (or any female whatsoever)

    • T.Fanty says:

      That merely rearranges the positions we will all be in.

    • T.Fanty says:

      To add: I just read the article you posted and hope it’s not true, otherwise, that’s just sad.

      • zannoub says:

        It is sad, really sad that many of the handsome looking men turn out to be gay, not only in showbusiness but in daily life too. M not being judgemental, m just worried that all we would have left fugly men!!! maybe I should start playing for the other team, lot of beautiful women around :p

  12. Hannah says:

    Eddie took his mom actually. You can see pictures on MailOnline.

    • GoodCapon says:

      I’ve seen the lone picture and it wasn’t very flattering on her mum, but despite that I think she’s a pretty lady and her eyes!! Now I know where Eddie got his eyes from 😉

  13. judyjudy says:

    Eddie has what my friends and I call BHM (butt hole mouth). But yeah, I would hit it and iron his pocket scarf for him when I was done.

  14. normades says:

    Team Eddie.

    I hate shiny grey suits but this one looks fab on him. Such style…sigh.

  15. rusty_belle says:

    Eddie with his freckles n all!!! and if i’m not mistaken, Luke is gay

  16. Queen says:

    Redmayne looks like dead fish.

  17. cynicalsmirk says:

    I’m not much of a fangirl, but Eddie Redmayne is doing something for me….be a nice Christian Grey, methinks 🙂

  18. Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

    They all look like versions of Justin Timberlake – so pasty white and not hot.

  19. tabasco says:

    Eddie. Adorable and sexy at the same time. And SO sharp. Those lips…..

  20. Mew says:

    Luke Evans all the way, then some Damian Lewis and then lots more Luke. Redmayne looks like Kermit.

  21. flutters says:

    Just imagine: if Taylor Swift had somehow gotten that Eponine role in Les Miz, Eddie Redmayne would probably have had to suffer through the whole awards show season with the albatross of a Swifty showmance hanging around his neck. And then the songs.

    Eddie wins this awards show season just by avoiding that, but he also wins for how he dresses. Wonderful!

  22. skilo says:

    Well just my opinion obviously, but I don’t think Eddie or Damian are the slightest bit attractive, Luke is the only one I could if I had to.

  23. LAK says:

    Sorry Kaiser and CB ladies, but Luke is gay.

    He is out and proud!

    • Ms Kay says:

      Yes I’ve known that for a while and I still have a crush on him, same goes for Matt Bomer.

    • Lauli says:

      Are you sure Luke is out and proud? I thought his “beard” was a PR assistant called Holly something.

  24. MyLittlePony says:

    Eddie and Damian of course! Personally, I can’t stand Helen McCrory mainly because she dated my darling Rufus Sewell before snatching gorgeous Damian. I mean she is a great actress and all that, but it just is not fair that she has (had) them both! AND she is also older than these two gorgeous men.How does she do it?!

  25. Whiskeylove says:

    Helen McCrory is always so smug looking! I get why and all but it still bugs the hell out of me! I’ll be glad to see the back of her after awards season is over.

    • MyLittlePony says:

      Exactly! There’s an interview with them in Vogue UK’s February issue which to my utmost delight is quite in-between-lines bitchy about McCrory.

  26. Reece says:

    Off these pics alone, umm, I’ll take some “me” time thank you.

    Eddie is wearing his suit well, but no.

  27. TheOriginalKitten says:

    I want all three but I’ve only ever had sex dreams about Lewis. In other words, my biscuits belong to Damian.

  28. Sachi says:

    Damian Lewis forever!

    Eddie is my flavour of the month. 😀

  29. jasmine says:

    team LUKE!!!!!

  30. KellyinSeattle says:

    I don’t know who it is, but I pick the guy in the third pic. Can’t see how the other guy, w/ the freckles, is that sexy; he’s pretty average to me.

  31. moon says:

    Luke Evans is SO HOT!!

    Then I found out he was gay…#iplayforthewrongteam #thoseluckyboys

  32. Ryan says:

    I don’t find any of them attractive, but the least unattractive one is the last one.

  33. Miss Jupitero says:

    I like Eddie, but he looks like a boy to me! Too innocent! Maybe after puts on five years and gets a few facial lines and the look of experience. He was an excellent Marius though for all of these reasons I guess.

    Damien Lewis though…. Oh my, yes!

  34. lucy says:

    Eddie, Angelina Jolie’s “son” in The Good Shepard, he’s growing on me, thought how could they use a guy that looked liked him as the “son” of Angie and Matt Damon, but now that I’ve seen him in a few things, I’m getting it.

  35. Laura says:

    I’m just finishing up the Forsyte Saga right now, so poor DL is going to be creepy Soames forever!!

    And yeah, ER sure is one hell of a fantastic dresser 🙂

    • Polkasox says:

      He is super creepy as Soames. But I looooooved him in Life and Homeland. I have a major crush on Damian, made me almost feel bad for creeper Soames.

      • Gemini08 says:

        I haven’t seen that yet but I don’t want anything ruining my love for him so maybe I will abstain.

  36. chalkdustgirl says:

    Colin O’Donoghue.

  37. Gemini08 says:

    There is no contest. Damien Lewis. I have had a thing for him for years and he proves that gingers (myself included) can be SEXAY!!

  38. muppet_barbershop says:

    First Eddie, then Eddie, and finally Eddie. Thanks for asking. 🙂
