Dev Patel

TALL, DARK, AND HANDSOME DEV PATEL HAS COME A LONG WAY

Our first response when seeing this photo is “Who’s the handsome guy with Nicole Kidman?” Surprisingly, it turned out to be Slumdog Millionaire star Dev Patel and he looks QUITE different! Dev filmed Slumdog eight years ago when he was an 18 year old gawky British kid trying to fake an Indian accent. For his new movie Lion, Dev worked out and put on some weight, and turned into a sexy guy. The movie is about a five year old Calcutta boy who is separated from his family and adopted by an Australian couple. Dev plays the boy 25 years later when he finds his birth parents on Google Earth. And he’s getting Supporting Actor quality reviews for his performance.

We ALMOST didn’t recognize Slumdog Millionaire star Dev Patel, 24, because he usually has that cute-geek look, but in this photo he is drop dead handsome! The Marigold Hotel star is single now – he and his Slumdog costar, the beautiful Freida Pinto, 30, recently split after five years together. It’s hard to believe the English actor was barely 17 when he filmed Slumdog. For three seasons he also appeared on the political drama, The Newsroom.
