He’s the ultimate manic pixie dream boy, but he’s also pretty stagnant in the cool stakes. Will 2015 change that? He’s got three films coming out this year, all of them buzzy. Watch this space.
See him in Suffragette.
Eddie Redmayne: Climbing Fast

Real talk: we could tell you we love him because he’s talented and well-dressed with the voice of an angel. But honestly, all we’re thinking about are those lips.
See him in The Theory Of Everything, out this month.

This year Jon Snow goes from small-screen bastard to Hollywood royalty. We’re secretly quite glad to see him in a more clean-cut look (no shaggy fur) in his upcoming fantasy thriller.
See him in Seventh Son.
Charlie Hunnam: Poised For Greatness?

He walked away from Fifty Shades Of Grey and 2015 will decide whether that was the best or worst decision of his career. We’re keeping fingers crossed for him.
See him in Crimson Peak.
Tom Hiddleston: Rising, Rising

Not sure who he is? Well, 2015 will change all that. Hiddleston is determined to make everyone his fan-girl, with everything from gritty urban dramas to arthouse biopics.
See him in Crimson Peak.
Benedict Cumberbatch: Off The Charts

Where do we even start? He’s got screaming fans (Cumberbitches), serious acting chops and he’s a social media star. Consider us Cumberbatched.
See him in The Imitation Game, out this month.
