HARTNETT HIDES SEXY IMAGE

Josh Hartnett stars in the thriller Lucky Number Slevin as a victim of mistaken identity who is hunted down by rival mob bosses played by Ben Kingsley and Morgan Freeman.

The usually sexy actor says he had to tone down his charisma to be believable as an unsuspecting shlub.

“For me it was a question of trying to create a character who was distracting for the other actors involved and the other players involved in the film that they wouldn’t ever suspect. He was slubbish enough and enough of a loser that you wouldn’t expect in any way shape or form that he is involved in this world that they reside in.”

Lucky Number Slevin also stars Bruce Willis and Lucy Liu, currently playing in theaters nationwide.
