The 13 Hottest Stars for the 2015 Holiday Season

With movies like ‘The Force Awakens’ and ‘SPECTRE’ hitting theaters this holiday season, fans have plenty of Hollywood hotties to keep them warm from now until the New Year. Here’s a look at some of the hottest Hollywood stars appearing in this year’s crop of holiday movies.

This sexy Parisian is a veteran of the spy genre, starring in ‘Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol’ (2011) before taking her turn as Bond girl Madeleine Swann in this years ‘SPECTRE.’ And it looks like her claim to franchise films will continue — she’s set to star alongside Channing Tatum in next year’s ‘Gambit.’ [image: Getty]

This former television star (‘Friday Night Lights’) literally lit up the screen in his last movie — he starred as Johnny Storm in this years ‘Fantastic Four’ (2015) reboot.  Now he joins another famous franchise, taking on the role of Adonis Johnson in ‘Creed,’ the latest chapter in Sylvester Stallone’s ‘Rocky’ saga.  [image: Getty]

The last time we saw Tom Hardy on the big screen, as Max in ‘Mad Max: Fury Road,’ he barely said a word. The hunky actor gets his share of dialogue in the crime drama ‘Legend,’ when he plays identical twin gangsters Reggie and Ronnie Kray, two of the most notorious criminals in British history.  [image: Getty]

After four films and almost $2 billion dollars at the box office, Jennifer Lawrence is hanging up Katniss’ bow and arrow with the release of ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay -- Part 2.’  You won’t have to wait long to see this beauty back on the big screen though — the Academy Award winner also stars in ‘Joy,’ set to hit theaters at Christmas.  [image: Getty]

Lizzy Caplan has been busy steaming up the small screen on Showtime’s ‘Masters of Sex.’ This holiday season, she joins Hollywood heavyweights Seth Rogen and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the Christmas comedy ‘The Night Before.’

This heartthrob left his role as a nice guy boyfriend on HBO’s ‘Girls’ to star as the evil Kylo Ren in this year’s blockbuster ‘Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens.’ Even with the breakup, we think he'll do just fine... ladies love a bad boy.

This Aussie import takes on his first big starring movie role as Johnny Utah in the highly anticipated remake of the 1991 Keanu Reeves classic ‘Point Break.’ A self-professed adrenaline junkie and extreme-sports athlete, Bracey did many of his own stunts in the film, including snowboarding and skydiving.

An actor from the time he was nine years old, Josh made his big-screen debut opposite Will Ferrell in the 2005 soccer comedy ‘Kicking & Screaming’... but his career really kicked into high gear with his role as Peeta Mellark in ‘The Hunger Games’ trilogy. Josh is also the centerpiece of another film franchise, starring as Sean in ‘The Journey to the Center of the Earth’ films.

This British beauty makes her American film debut this holiday season, starring as Rey in ‘Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens.’ Choosing her for the coveted role, director J.J. Abrams mimicked the same type of casting selections — using little-known actors for the leading roles — made by George Lucas in the original ‘Star Wars’ films.  [image: Getty]

Born in Venezuela, this Latin heartthrob stars with Luke Bracey playing Bodhi in the upcoming remake of ‘Point Break.’ Originally slated to play a smaller, supporting role in the film, Ramirez donned the parachute of the adrenaline junkie master thief when Gerard Butler dropped out. 

'Thor' star Chris Hemsworth’s younger brother, Liam was a relative newcomer to moviemaking when he took on the role of Gale Hawthorne in ‘The Hunger Games’ films.  Audiences are going to get the chance to see a lot more of this hunky Aussie very soon — next year he stars opposite Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman in the high-profile sequel to ‘Independence Day.’

A self-described “'Star Wars' geek,” John Boyega was so nervous and frightened at the prospect of not getting cast he didn't tell his parents that he would be playing the mysterious Finn in in ‘Star Wars Episode VII – The Force Awakens’ until a cast photo was posted online by the official 'Star Wars' Twitter page.  [image: Getty]

Starting with the Christmas Day release of ‘Point Break,’ this Australian beauty stars in no less than 10 movies set for release in the U.S. within 9 months of each other. We're definitely not complaining. [image: Getty]
