CHARLIE HUNNAM

VANITIES

AGE AND OCCUPATION: 21, actor. PROVENANCE: Newcastle, England. SHOT TO FAME: In the English production of Queer as Folk, playing a 15-year-old with a taste for older men and a penchant for finding himself in, shall we say, compromising positions. "My mom thinks anything I do is O.K., but my dad is a tougher sell." OFF TO THE U.S.: Hunnam currently stars on Judd Apatow's Fox comedy, Undeclared. He'll soon be seen in movie theaters in Oscar-winning screenwriter Stephen Gaghan's directorial debut, Abandon, opposite Katie Holmes, and in the title role of director Doug McGrath's take on the Dickens classic Nicholas Nickleby. GOT HITCHED: To actress Kate Towne (the daughter of famed screenwriter Robert Towne), who graced this page a year ago. MEETING CUTE, YOUNG-HOLLYWOOD-STYLE: I had lunch at Mr. Chow's my second day here, and I met Kate. Three weeks later I met her again at a Dawson'& Creek audition. We were married two weeks later in Vegas." ENJOYING MARRIED LIFE? "We're filing for divorce."
