From Rock Hudson to Cary Grant, to modern day stars such as Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, masculinity on screen has both stayed the same, and shifted in major ways. On the one hand, handsome macho heartthrobs will always have their place, but modern day iterations of male stars include actors who are starting to expand and play with the idea of what it means to be a bankable male star (think Robert Pattinson, Michael Cera and Jonah Hill). In this Supercut, we dive deep into masculine representation on screen and how things have changed.
