14
Award-winning actor Freeman had perhaps one of the funniest roles in "Love Actually". Playing John, a stand-in for films, he meets Judy while they are simulating sex scenes, yet are both inherently shy. They end up falling for each other and get engaged.
Since then, Freeman's career has been nothing but varied. The 52-year-old played Dr. John Watson in BBC's "Sherlock", for which he won a BAFTA and an Emmy, Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit movie franchise, and Everett K. Ross in "Black Panther". The dad-of-two was previously married to fellow actor Amanda Abbington, but the two separated in 2016.
