I have loved Paul Bettany since I’ve been aware of him as an actor. He can be romantic and sweet (Wimbledon), silly and clever (A Knight’s Tale) and eeeeevil like the froooits of the devilllll (Firewall).
If I were queen of the world, Paul Bettany would play King Idris, the bad guy fairy, in all movie versions of the Tethers books (Give Me, Bride of Fae, and at least two more).
