Ive been thinking about this for days. I cant come up with any contemporary actor who has the right amount of coexisting alpha male and comedic qualities to convincingly fill the role.
Asked the GF and she got stuck too. When i persisted in bringing up the topic, she ultimately questioned my sexuality.
This is a good question and I too have pondered over this.
I cannot come up with an acceptable answer.
Jaden Smith.
