Viggo Mortensen
Viggo Mortensen
Viggolicious. Viggotude. Gettin' Viggy with it. Let's face it, Viggo
Mortensen is undeniably cracker-worthy. An indisputable specimen of
sizzling manliness. Oh, yes. yes... yes! yes! yes!... Ahem.
Currently best known for Angsty Good Guy Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Viggo nevertheless comes by his Hot Bad Guy credentials the good, old fashioned way. He played Satan. And after his role in Prophecy, his Bad Guy credibility is unquestionable.. Playing the Prince of Darkness always seals that up, but Mr. Mortensen did a spectacular job of portraying the intensity and angst of a fallen angel. Don't be fooled by his temporary alliance with the protagonists - he is ultimately self-serving and doesn't hesistate to torture them on his way through. Please. He ate an angel's heart. Raw. If that matters. And his final exist is among the best ever - exploding into a cloud of bats!
And don't even try to tell me that angels, and thus Lucifer, are hermaphrodites. I don't care. Viggo's Lucifer is all kinds of masculine. I wasn't the only one who wanted to be Elias Koteas when Satan grabbed him from behind and started whispering - growling - in his ear!
A Final note to Mr. Mortensen: We don't know why you've got red hair in the Return of the King preview (on the Two Towers Theatrical Release DVD) but please... get rid of it. You'll thank us for it.
(it's the beard - I never knew Satan had a weird bushy beard.)
(I am forced to take a point off for the probability that Lucifer
is technically a hermaphrodite)
