up-and-coming actors
Chris Pine - He's probably best remembered for fighting for Anne Hathaway's affections in Princess Diaries 2, but Chris Pine will be front and center in two huge flicks this year. He stars opposite Lindsay Lohan in Just My Luck and with Ben Affleck in Smokin' Aces.
Lou Taylor Pucci - He's pretty new to the acting scene, but this 20 year-old is definitely one to watch out for. Lou Taylor Pucci has signed on to star in Fifty Pills with Kristen Bell, Fast Food Nation with Avril Lavigne and Wilmer Valderrama, and the futuristic flick, Southland Tales, starring Seann William Scott and Mandy Moore.
Milo Ventimiglia - You already know Milo Ventimiglia as Rory's BF on Gilmore Girls, but 2006 is his year to shine. He'll be lighting up the big screen in the horror flick, Stay Alive, with Frankie Muniz and Samaire Armstrong, and is currently filming Rocky Balboa, where he plays Rocky Jr. with Sly Stallone!
Talan Torreiro - This Laguna Beach-er may be famous for getting engaged to Kimberly Stewart - only to call it off 11 days later - but that's about to change. He just wrapped production on his first feature film, Driftwood, with Phil of the Future's Ricky Ullman and is recording his debut album, which he says has an Orange County rock kind of feel to it.
Mike Vogel - After starring in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Supercross and Rumor Has It, Mike Vogel has another busy year ahead of him. Catch him in the comedy, Caffeine, with Mena Suvari - and the remake of the shipboard saga, Poseidon!
