Responding to the news, he told People: “I think you’ve bought me a couple of weeks of bragging rights around the house.

“I can just say to her [my wife], ‘Now remember, this is what the people think, so I don’t need to do the dishes anymore, I don’t need to change nappies. I’m above that. I’ve made it now’.”

Guardians of the Galaxy‘s Chris Pratt is second on this year’s list, closely followed by Jamie Dornan, who will play Christian Grey in next year’s Fifty Shades of Grey movie.
