citizens of Panem gays on the internet –– a new heartthrob has entered the arena.We returned to The Hunger Games universe with The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, which hit theaters and topped the box office last weekend.The prequel film follows a young Coriolanus Snow –– you know, the man that inflicted sick and twisted pain on the world as the original series’ tyrannical president? –– who serves as a mentor at the tenth-ever Hunger Games.
It’s a captivating and intricate villain origin story, featuring an all-star cast of celebs like Hunter Schafer, Viola Davis, Rachel Zegler, and Peter Dinklage.There’s just one problem: Tom Blyth (the actor who portrays young Snow on the brink of corruption) is so, so hot.
A post shared by Tom Blyth (@tomblyth)It’s a breakout role for the 28-year-old British actor, who studied at Juilliard and recently starred in MGM+’s Billy the Kid, as well as HBO’s The Gilded Age.And even though we’re supposed to hate the man his character becomes, Blyth is making it pretty damn hard.Tom Blyth was so hot. #TheHungerGames pic.twitter.com/PJmVlg90ztTOM BLYTH I- pic.twitter.com/llfcoZDGdQnew hunger games is great tom blyth i would kill myself for you to spit on meStill, Blyth is hardly the first hottie to star in the franchise –– hello, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth! –– nor is he the first hunk to play a villain.
And with his portrayal of Coriolanus, he joins the ranks of baddies like Anakin Skywalker, Kylo Ren, Draco Malfoy, and Gaston.From his curly bleached locks, to his mid-movie buzzcut (and a handful of shirtless scenes), Blyth certainly gives the gays a lot to chew on in the film.
