With Hunnam...it's hard playing the 'straight-man' in modern film. In most cases, they come off as..boring. I blame the writing but why did it work so well in the past.
There's Luke of course...I would also call Marty McFly a noble straight man, with some roguish tendencies. Michael J. Fox made his character endearing, memoable, and you're constantly rooting for him. Was it the writing sensibilities of the past, or our cynical present?
