Early-life: Ryan Rodney Reynolds was born in Vancouver, Canada, on October 23, 1976, the youngest of four brothers. Their mother is a saleswoman, their father a wholesaler. Ryan started acting in his early teens when he successfully auditioned for a role in the teen soap Fifteen. Other early projects include series such as The Odyssey, The Outer Limits, Lonesome Dove: The Outlaw Years and The X-Files.
Career: At the age of 18 Reynolds moved to Los Angeles, quickly landing roles in Sabrina the Teenage Witch and In Cold Blood. He then had a regular part in the surprise hit sitcom, Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place. Using the exposure gained from the series, he moved on to feature film work; it was 2002's Van Wilder: Party Liaison that made him a star. Since then, he's cemented his place on Hollywood's A-list with such movies as The Amityville Horror, Blade: Trinity, Definitely, Maybe, The Proposal, Buried, Ted, and playing the title role in Green Lantern. His recent credits include Ted, RIPD, A Million Ways to Die in the West, and The Voices.
Quote: "I never took acting classes, but I knew I could do it based on the skill with which I lied to my parents on a regular basis!"

Early-life: The youngest of three children, Paul Edward Valentine Giamatti was born on June 6, 1967. He graduated from Choate Rosemary Hall prep school, majored in English at Yale, and obtained his Master's Degree in Fine Arts, with his major in drama from the Yale University School of Drama. His father, A. Bartlett Giamatti, was a professor of Renaissance Literature at Yale University, and went on to become the university's youngest president. He performed in numerous theatrical productions (including on Broadway) before appearing in some small TV and film roles in the early 1990s.
Career: Giamatti's first high-profile role was in the film adaptation of Howard Stern's Private Parts as Kenny "Pig Vomit" Rushton, Stern's antagonistic program director at WNBC. He appeared in a number of supporting roles in big-budget movies such as The Truman Show, Saving Private Ryan, and The Negotiator (all in 1998). In 1999, he played Bob Zmuda (and Tony Clifton) in the Andy Kaufman biopic, Man on the Moon. Giamatti continued to be featured in major studio releases such as Big Momma's House (2000) with Martin Lawrence, the Planet of the Apes remake (2001), and in Big Fat Liar (2002) opposite Frankie Muniz and Amanda Bynes, before his performance in the gentle drama Sideways won major critical praise. In 2006, he was the lead in M Night Shyamalan's Lady in the Water, a supernatural thriller. He played Mr Hertz in the action movie Shoot 'Em Up and Santa Claus in the comedy Fred Claus. He won an Emmy and Golden Globe for his lead role in HBO's John Adams, and his most recent work includes Duplicity, The Last Station, Barney's Version (a role for which he won another Golden Globe), and The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
Quote: "It'd be disingenuous to say I don't like attention - I'm an actor for God's sake - and it's flattering and all, but attention was never my big goal. I just like to work and have a good time. This whole business feels kind of intense, like a bad fit. Round peg, square hole. But whatever, I'll take it."
