Logan Lerman and Xavier Samuel Named Hollywood’s New Heartthrobs

Grace — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 04:14:18 +0000

Joining young Lerman on the list isXavier Samuel, a 27-year-old Aussie who shot to the top of the Hollywood hot list when he had a primary role in “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.” He also stars in Roland Emmerich’s Shakespeare thriller “Anonymous,” which is set for release this fall.

A self-described nomad, when asked how he defines success, Samuel takes the Bob Dylan approach.

“I think success has something to do with living life your own way,” the Aussie actor told VMAN. Bob Dylan said: ‘A man is a success if he wakes up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.’ That sounds about right.”

But there are a few extra things–aside from complete freedom–that make being deemed a young successful heartthrob worthwhile for Samuel.

GQ Man of Style: Xavier Samuel (New Photoshoots & Interview)

Grace — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 13:56:49 +0000

GQ’s Man of Style Xavier Samuel was surprised to learn we’d anointed him the most dapper chap in the land. “I’m not really a fashion enthusiast. I just wear stuff I like and feel comfortable in,” was the 26-year-old actor’s initial reaction. But, when pressed, Samuel demonstrated impressive sartorial smarts, reeling off a list of cutting-edge clothing shops he “wanders into” in Paris, New York and Sydney.

He then went on to sing the praises of Hudson shoes, All Saints jackets, Incu T-shirts, Nudie jeans, and Herringbone shirts. After that he generously shared his favourite piece of fashion advice: “Someone once told me I should never wear a black T-shirt because everyone that was cool – Paul Newman, Marlon Brando – wore a white one. The only person who ever wore a black T-shirt was Patrick Swayze. The person telling me this said, ‘So it’s your call – do you want to be Newman, or do you want to be Swayze?’”

GQ: So what’s life been like post Twilight?
XS: It’s been kind of cool actually, I’ve been hanging around in Berlin. I skipped off and did a film over there.

GQ: Was that Anonymous?
XS: Yeah. And I’ve spent a bit more time in LA and New York as well. So I’ve just been kind of enjoying it. We’ve skipped off to all these cities for the publicity for the film.

GQ: Were you caught up in the Twilight madness to the same extent as the main actors have been?
XS: Well, I certainly was not under the microscope in the same fashion that a lot of those guys were. I played the villain of the film, and they’ve been involved two films prior to that, so I kind of entered at a point when it was already severely popular. So it’s all been a bit of a whirlwind really, but a good one.

GQ: Does your girlfriend buy you clothes in the hope that you’ll wear them?
XS: Yeah, sometimes. She’s got a quite good fashion sense. GQ: What kind of stuff is she into?
XS: I don’t know, it’s kind of a mystery to me, but she seems to mix and match all sorts of things and make it look good and still be herself.

GQ: Do you buy a lot of things when you go shopping?
XS: No, not particularly, it’s sort of just like a shirt here and there. But I’m kind of amazed by all the stuff that I have accumulated accidently.

GQ: What will you be rocking this summer?
XS: I don’t know. I’m not really a shorts kind of guy.

GQ: Do you think you look ridiculous in them?
XS: Yeah, I think I look ridiculous in shorts and I’ve also got these pale pasty legs that haven’t seen the sun in years, so I think it would be unkind to show the world my pasty legs.

GQ: So if it’s not shorts, what is it you love to wear?
XS: It’s always cool to go to those retro secondhand stores, they’ve always got great T-shirts and jeans.

GQ: So does your look vary depending on the seasons?
XS: I pretty much dress the same. I mix and match. I’ll just throw a jacket on when it’s cold. It’s not very complicated.

GQ: Are there any actors that you think are particularly stylish?
XS: I don’t particularly try to emulate anyone’s fashion. I haven’t really paid attention to it. Maybe it’s the people whose fashion sense you don’t notice, they’re probably the people that are doing it right. That sort of seamless thing, you know?

GQ: Who do you regard as the iconic actors?
XS: Fashionwise or just in general?

GQ: Either.
XS: Philip Seymour Hoffman. I saw him at STC [Sydney Theatre Company] and he had like a Hawaiian shirt on and some shorts and a cap with a pencil in it. I thought, this guy is doing it pretty well.

GQ: Was he on or off stage?
XS: Ha! It was off stage. He is obviously an amazing performer and someone who I really admire for the kind of boldness and the decisions that he makes [which are] always creative and kind of against what you usually imagine. And there are a lot of Australian actors I really like as well, like Tom Wright and Mark Winter. I just saw Animal Kingdom, Ben Mendelsohn’s amazing in that film, as is Joel Edgerton. They’re kicking arse at the moment.

GQ: What about actors like Marlon Brando?
XS: Yeah, I always look up to those kinds of actors.

GQ: Do you think its sad that Hollywood doesn’t have the glamour it did during its early years?
XS: Yeah, I think that’s sort of what was cool in the ’20s — people getting all decked out whenever they went out. I think that would be a cool era to have lived in. Sadly, it’s sort of gone, but it’s also kind of coming back, especially somewhere like New York, where you can never be too dressed up.

GQ: When do you get dressed up? Is it just for film premieres?
XS: Yeah, usually, stuff like that. I don’t know. Sometimes I just feel like throwing a suit on for the hell of it, you know? But I’m probably not gonna wear a suit to the football.

GQ: Do you have a favorite pair of sunglasses?
XS: I really like Ray-Bans. I actually own a whole bunch of sunglasses that I have acquired and they’re all very similar — with a classic Ray-Ban feel.

GQ: How many do you have in your collection?
XS: Not a whole bunch. Probably 10 or 20 pairs, something like that. It makes me sound really shallow when I talk about how many sunglasses I’ve got.

GQ: Not at all. Are there any actors that you think have matured really well?
XS: I think Clooney’s doing really well for himself, Matt Damon’s doing pretty good. I’m not kind of going, ‘Jeez, I hope I look like that guy when I’m older,’ but I think they’re doing alright. And Nick Nolte is doing awesome.

GQ: What’s your idea of a fashion faux pas?
XS: I don’t know whether there are many. I’m happy for someone to embrace the socks and sandals — I think they should bring it back. I think high-waisted jeans are fine — go for it.

GQ: Have you ever turned up to an event inappropriately dressed?
XS: That happens to me regularly. I go, ‘Oh Jesus, I should have put a shirt on.’ Or I go, ‘Why did I put a shirt on? Everyone else is casual.’ There hasn’t been a complete disaster, thankfully, but I’ll keep you posted if there is.

XAVIER SAMUEL
How did you land the highly coveted role of Riley?
”I flew to Vancouver on a ‘maybe’ with four other guys to meet the director. It was like putting all your eggs into one basket because I had to turn down a pilot to go to Vancouver. I’m pretty glad I did.”
