Paul Bettany Says He Was the "Shyest Boy on Earth" Growing Up | Sexiest Man Alive | PEOPLE

“I used to hide in the deputy headmaster’s office during recess because I was very bullied, and I was just shy,” says the London-born Avengers actor. The advice the 50-year-old actor would give his younger self? “Life’s curly. Don’t stress too much. The greatest thing as I hurdle towards old age is that now I feel less embarrassed about everything. It just all goes away.”

OMG. The film that "didn't do so well", where he met john favreau, is WIMBLEDON!!!!! I LOVE THAT MOVIE!! Paul is such a great actor, and so modest!

[@jlcollins14]

U have all the charisma in this world maaan and I'm falling so hard for you

[@helena6533]

Paul is an amazing man! Standing by Johnny Depp no matter what!

[@strangefruit42]

I love his humour, his modesty, his wit. Not to mention that he's one of the most versatile an intense actors of his generation. And though his skinniness he looks absolutely stunning. Especially on the photo for the magazine. For me he comes waaayyy closer to "sexiest man alive" than the other one.

[@justinswenson8101]

He’s talking like Jarvis

[@redhotchillypepper4633]

He is really cute.

[@jessicabrown3184]
