Answer: Christian Bale

Yeah, alright there's that little "Batman" trilogy, "3:10 to Yuma" and "The Prestige" but I told you the list was long. I guess that happens when you start your acting career at 12! While this may not be a new fact to some people, others may find it interesting that Bale is originally from Wales.

10. This actor has a lead role on the TV remake of "Hawaii 5-0". He has starred as Stan the cheese farmer opposite Jennifer Lopez in the romantic comedy "The Back Up Plan" (2010).

Answer: Alex O'Loughlin

So maybe he's not a leading man on the big screen, but he has been the lead in three TV shows ("Moonlight" 2007, "Three Rivers" 2009, and he finally found a hit show that ran for more than one season in "Hawaii 5-0" in 2010).
