Male idols best fit for certain roles in Hollywood

Jo Kwon, T.O.P, Kris, Jaejoong, Lee Joon, Key, Siwon, Heechul, Donghae, Kim Jong Kook

Have you ever watched a Hollywood blockbuster and thought to yourself, "Yessss, *insert K-pop idol here* could totally pull off this part!"  


There's no denying that Jaejoong has a certain vampirish look with his pale skin and intense glare or that T.O.P looks like an assassin or a spy who could make women swoon while wearing a suit.  Even if Jaejoong were baring scary, pointy vampire teeth at you or T.O.P were pointing a gun at you, you'd probably just kind of stand there in awe.  Maybe even drooling a bit.  That's okay!


So with this mind, check out the ten Korean male idol stars we thought could pull off some of the best known roles in Hollywood!


1. Jaejoong as Edward Cullen (Twilight Saga)


As I said, Jaejoong has a vampirish look.  His skin is pale as if he rarely sees the sun and his eyes (especially heavily lined in eyeliner) look like they could easily suck your soul out.  In the above picture, Jaejoong even looks like he is about to nip his finger. What a vampire tease.  There is definitely a similarity in intensity between these two actors.


2. Jo Kwon as Mr. Chow (Hangover Trilogy)



They're both funny guys.  No one else could be as entertaining and ridiculous as Jo Kwon in the role of the infamous Mr. Chow. It would be quite hilarious! 


3. Key as the Joker (The Dark Knight)



Key could play the complicated and trouble making character of the Joker very well. Key is quite mischievous in real life, isn't he?  And he's already so into the role as obvious from his Halloween costume.


4. Donghae as Tony Stark/Iron Man (Iron Man Series)



Donghae looks pretty convincing in that Iron Man costume, although, obviously, the costume isn't quite of the exact same caliber as in the real movies.  However, with the fake beard-stache going on, Donghae looks quite convincingly like Robert Downey Jr. for the role of Tony Stark.  He has the look down, but can he be as sassy and endearingly annoying as the character warrants?  Perhaps.

5. Heechul as Loki (Thor movies)



Heechul has the looks down, as well.  He just needs to slick back his hair and bring out his intense yet slightly loony gaze and he'll be perfect.  I can imagine him smirking like Loki when he finally pulls one over on the Avengers.  Heechul can also pull off the humorous parts without a doubt.

6. Kim Jong Kook as the Hulk (Hulk movies)



Okay, Kim Jong Kook is not really an idol anymore.  He used to be, but not anymore.  But come on, look at those two pictures.  He has the body to be Hulk with very little need for special effects.  Just some green paint. 

7. Siwon as Batman (Batman Series)



Siwon has the body as well as the sort of classy, born-rich kind of vibe that Batman exudes.  He could also play the careless, wealthy playboy with his handsome, suave features yet at the same time, you could see Siwon rescuing and never losing hope in the dark, dystopian Gotham city cause he's actually a sweetheart.

8. Lee Joon as Legolas (Lord of the Rings Trilogy)



Lee Joon and Legolas are both adorable when they smile, but they can quickly transform into sexy men as soon as it is time to do some butt-kicking.  Additionally, Lee Joon kind of looks like a pretty elf with that blonde hair.

9. T.O.P as James Bond (James Bond movies)



T.O.P already has the gun-pointing pose and killer looks down.  Plus, he looks good in a suit.  I'm sure once it is time to seduce the Bond girls, T.O.P will be more than able to turn into the suave and mysterious Bond.  James Bond.

10. Kris as Draco Malfoy (Harry Potter movies)



Kris has this sort of smirky look that I think would make him perfectly suited for the rather snooty yet undeniably attractive role of Draco Malfoy.  He has this almost aristocratic appearance that I think could come off appropriately haughty if he were to play the role.  As a matter of fact, I think he would be a more intimidating Draco Malfoy so that when he goes, "Just wait until I tell my father about this," the audience isn't smirking trying to hide scornful laughter but actually . . . kind of shitting their pants.




Obviously there are many other talented male idols who could star in famous Hollywood roles since there are so many of them.  Indiana Jones?  The Scooby-Doo gang?  Who do you think could play certain characters?  Let us know below!
