Coolest actor ever without James Dean, Al Pacino or Robert Di Nero listed - wierd!

I'd go with Robert Di Nero.

Also really like John Cusack who is very underated imo, Gross Point Blank is still one of my all time top ten films.

Aye, plus Ladyhawk, Split second, Bladerunner... fuck, loads of 'em.

Remember Ladyhawk, Bladrunner is a classic but never seen Split Second. First two plus The Hitcher certainly negate the awful 'Blind Fury'.

granted he's lost his cool now that he's like 175 years old but including everything he's done, him > all, no competition.

Steve Buscemi or Johnny Depp ;)

It's difficult to be so damn good in every movie you do when you have to play the difficult roles. The likes of sean connery always played the same type of character so it was too easy for him, same with clint eastwood I hate to say.

You can't be the coolest if you've had nothing to test you.

I agree with Depp, very talented actor - probably one of the most talented.

Other 'cool' actors I like are Clive Owen, he's awesome :D

Depp, or maybe a guy like Chow Yun Fat. Lots of cool actors though.

Forgot to include Christian Bale in there as well. Was shocked to hear that just 6 months after the machinist whereby he basically starved himself and looked ill as hell for the role, he was off doing batman where he beefed up a ridiculous amount. To me, that earns a shed load of 'coolness' points for the dedication to his roles.

If any of you ever saw Clint Eastwood get interviewed by Micheal parkinson and his little trick with the box of matches and cigar you would not be in any doubt whatsoever as to who is king of Cool.

What about Stever McQueen.

Forgot to mention, that while Tommy Lee Jones is cool to the max, David Tennant is one of my all time favorite actors aswell, in a slightly, different way as he's more..well...fun! Doctor Who, latest, for those who the name eludes.

He's supposedly an absolute twat in real life though :( Even though I agree that he was quite a funny guy. Not that cool though ;)

A lot are meant to be tbh,

Arthur Lowe for instance (Mr Mainwaring in Dad's Army) was meant to have a fearsome bite to keeping up his professionalism.
