The Next Brad Pitt?
All good things must come to an end, and while there’s no end in sight yet for Brad, it is necessary to say that he’s aging. I’m sure that, like Sean Connery, he will continue to act, but eventually someone will have to step into his shoes to take the roles that he’s no longer the right age for. So who will be the “next” Brad?
How about James Marsden?
James has been slowly working his way up the Hollywood ladder, much in the same way that Brad did. He started in 1993 with a role in Saved by the Bell: The New Class, and he survived that career suicide to act in a number of other shows. Arguably, his biggest break was in playing Cyclops for X-men. Since then he’s gone on to apper in a number of popular movies, such as The Notebook, Superman Returns, Hairspray, and now the immensely popular Enchanted, where he dances and sings!
Marsden is now appearing in theaters in teh romantic comedy 27 Dresses. He’s also in the process of filming The Box, a story about a married couple who finds a box on their doorstep. Whenever they open the box they get a lot of money, but it also kills someone that they know…moral dilemma!
Marsden is 10 years younger than Brad, has been married for 7 years and has 2 children. So how about it: is James Marsden the next Brad Pitt, or is that slot saved for the 12 year younger Casey Affleck?
