Long History

Out of the Past

By Janet / July 29, 2006

This pretty actress has had a remarkably successful career in Hollywood – from TV to independent films. She met the man of her dreams and he happens to be one of the sexiest leading men onscreen. His chiseled physique makes all his movies memorable. She married him without realizing he changed his name to cover up his unsavory history. The guy had a drug problem, has spent time in prison, and there were child abuse charges involved. He was hustler on Santa Monica Blvd when he arrived in Hollywood and one of the men he slept with helped him get his first break. He clicked onscreen and never looked back. His sweet actress wife knows nothing of his past, and he hopes she never finds out.

  3. I don’t think it is Ben. His family has been on tv and interviewed so i don’t see how the secret life fits.

  5. Not Ryan Phillipe. Checked out his bio: Born in New Castle, DE, has 3 sisters, dad is a chemical technician & mom works in pre- &post-natal care. Too detailed to be phony.
    So who’s considered a “sweet actress” these days? I thought maybe “sweet” would refer to movie titles. Since Phillipe is eliminated, we can’t count Sweet Home Alabama. Anything else?

  6. Someone guessed this on the newsgroups: Patricia Arquette and Thomas Jane, who was in The Punisher in lead role.

  7. I don’t think Thomas Jane could be described as, “one of the sexiest leading men onscreen.”

  10. Banderas and Travolta don’t have wives that did both TV and indie films. All of Melanie’s films were for mainstream studios. And John Travolta has a famous family. His mother was an actress. I think that Patricia Arquette and her husband fit the blind item better than anyone else.

  11. Sorry. Ellen Travolta is his sister not his mother.

  13. I don’t think that we’ve hit the right one yet.
    Banderas – Born in Malaga, Spain. Dad’s a cop, mom a teacher.
    Duchovny was born in Manhattan – dad is a playwright and a publicist for the American Jewish Committee. His mom is/was a teacher, and he has an older brother & younger sister.
    Grrr…who IS this mysterious couple????

  15. I thought at first it was Jude Law but hes not married is he? So how bout Tom Cruise?

  16. I thought at first it was Jude Law but hes not married is he? So how bout Tom Cruise?

  17. Heath Ledger – I can’t find many details on him other than his DOB & where he was born. But, Michelle Williams was on Dawson’s Creek and then in movies. Although they aren’t married, she refers to him as her “husband” and he refers to her as his fiancee.
    Possibility?

  18. i’d have to go with thomas jane. even a very light look over on his few bios shows a very spotty, lots of holes. little background, in other words.

  20. Tom Cruise. The “She met the man of her dreams…” comment clinches it. Didn’t Katie Holmes say that when she was a kid she dreamed of marrying Tom Cruise?

  22. is anyone thinking…..reese hasn’t done tv…..tom cruise…i don’t think so he’s been doing stuff for so long now….and has katie done any indi films…?
    no not tom, and it’s not Freddie Prinze Jr…think people think!

  23. The blind item says they are married. Tom and Katie are not married. Also, the man in the blind item is likely someone not as famous as Banderas and Freddie Prinze, whose lives have been examined over and over again. I still think the best guess is Thomas Jane, who has starred in some major movies, but still isn’t well known.

  25. Is anybody actually reading the blind item? It says the couple is married and the husband is known for his “chiseled physique”. That automatically excludes a lot guesses here.

  28. Vincent Gallo is single, at least according to his bio.

  31. While not all of the pix that I’ve seen of Thomas Jane, there were some where he looked like he had a “chiseled physique”.
    Out of the ones listed so far, I’m leaning toward Thomas Jane.

  32. how about giving us a little more info on the guy…a little hint at some of his work

  33. Thomas Jane was in “61” with Barry Pepper, where he played Mickey Mantle.
    and also he was in “The Sweetest Thing” with Cameron Diaz and Selma Blair
    and also he was in a sexy film with Antonio Banderas and Angelina Jolie called (oh no something about “Sin” now I can’t remember the title.
    I always thought Thomas Jane was really great looking, very sexy and yes in some movies he was chiseled.
    But i am not saying he’s part of this mystery in any way.

  34. Brad Pitt??
    He’s chisled, all his movies with his chisled looks are indeed memorable.
    His sweet actress wife was Jennifer Aniston, and she’s done TV and indie films.
    They may not be married anymore, but who knows what he did before he became famous?
    And he’s old enough to have a “past”.
    it would have to be a guy in his 30’s or 40’s to have the “past” that this guy has.
    and if it is “Braddie Poo”, he probably does hope no one ever finds out.

  35. The only movie Jane got beefed up for was THE PUNISHER. That’s it folkes.

  36. Brad Pitt never changed his name and is tight with his family, therefore not him.

  38. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith? I don’t know if his past fits the bill – but she is pretty, started on TV and he looks pretty chisled to me in his films.

  39. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban? He was really into drugs before making it big in Nashville..but I don’t know if Nic has been on TV…just movies??

  41. Will Smith came up a a rapper. Duh! He was know in the Hip-Hop community long before he became a tv star.

  42. Heat Ledger I thought so
    right away. Lucky producer wonder how much he had to pay. Maybe Brokeback Mountain hit a little closer to home than he would like to admit. But I love Michelle Williams she hit paydirt durig the filming looked like a goddess at the Academy Awards.

  45. Heath Ledger isn’t married
    They call each other husband and wife.

  46. “She married him without realizing he changed his name” implies there was an actual ceremony. Not just two people who consider themselves “married”.

  47. Also Heath Ledger didn’t change his name. According to the IMDB: Has three sisters: Kate Ledger, and half sisters Olivia Ledger and Ashleigh Bell.

  48. Chad Lowe is not chisled nor is he a leading man……I don’t really think Patricia Arquette is that pretty but…

  49. Just saw a screening of new movie, KILLSHOT with Thomas Jane and he’s definately very ‘chisled’..very goodlooking and sexy. Sounds like him etc.
