Taking the top spot is the iconic Bruce Willis for his role in Die Hard back in 1988.
The research, carried out by Slingo, ranked the Christmas movie heartthrob based on factors like facial features, social media popularity, and Google search trends.
The popular actor, who played John McClane in the film, received a 6.7 attractiveness rating in the movie, has a staggering 55 million searches on his name, and has amassed two million Instagram followers.
In second place, and surprisingly surpassing his co-star Jude Law in the same movie, is Jack Black for his role as Miles in The Holiday.
