Gorgeous, unassuming, a beautiful singing voice, and despite never truly ascending, he seems to be a rather versatile actor. I haven't watched any of 'Westworld' yet, but it's on my list - how is he there?  |

He is the most cuckholded person in Hollywood history.

He's hot. And a decent actor, though he was far from a standout in Westworld.

Good actor. Not great, but solid. Westworld is his standout performance and he was hilarious in 30 Rock

Good actor, and he seems to have a decent sense of humor too. I like him.

Bumping this ancient thread to add that I do think of him in the same vein as actors like Tom Skerritt, Sam Neill, Kyle Chandler, and Peter Gallagher - all super handsome and talented but generally sidelined in film to the kinds of roles that don't garner actors acclaim - not male actors, anyway. Surprising that none of them became a bigger star.
And judging from the picture, he definitely knows more about modeling than the Kendalls and Caras and Gigis of this world.

pacinoyes - Love the clip!  You don't normally think of gorgeous men for comedy - Paul Rudd is really the only exception I can think of - Marsden was probably always runner-up for "leading man"-type roles.

Doesn't the pic in the OP look like it could be an ad for Acqua di Gio or another fragrance with sea notes? His height may have been an obstacle (5'10"), but I definitely think he could have worked it as a model in the 90s/00s. |

I thought he was going to turn things around when he did Enchanted, Hairspray, and 27 Dresses all in a row, but I guess unfortunately either there's just not enough rom-coms let alone good ones for him to have been cast in after that, or he decided to mix it up and made some unfortunate choices. Although now besides being the most cuckolded person in Hollywood, lol, he also has his niche in movies featuring a lead animated character. (I have a feeling Brendan Fraser would own this niche if unfortunately he hadn't had such bad luck which helped contribute to him losing his movie star looks.  ) |

'90s classic No Dessert, Dad, till You Mow the Lawn was his film debut and my introduction to him, and he played a douchebro convincingly well. Since then he's done the super hero thing, rom-coms, and most notably, the super nice boyfriend who gets screwed over time and time again. He's quite handsome and is perfect in Hairpsray, but I think he excels more in comedies.

Applegate, Cardellini, and Marsden are all so good!  |

James Marsden's great at playing "oblivious yucks" who are seemingly also in on the joke, that's what I adore about him in Enchanted.
