50 of the most charming actors in film and television

50. Patrick Dempsey

McDreamy himself is definitely one of those charming actors that took our heart and ran with it. Mainly because that was the nature of the character but also because Patrick Dempsey was portraying Derek Shepherd.

For those who are not familiar with his career before Grey’s Anatomy came crashing onto our screens all those years ago, he’s made a life out of his charm. Remember Can’t Buy Me Love? From the adorable dork who had to try and woo the girl of his dreams to now the dashing American who took Bridget Jones’s heart, he’s had quite the luck with charming us into loving him

His most recent film was Bridget Jones’s Baby. Patrick played Jack, one of the potential fathers. In the film, he uses his charming ways to kind of creepily sleep with Bridget. But it obviously worked since she thought the baby was his.

The thing about Patrick is that he has a dashing smile and he knows exactly how to use it. Just watch him in interviews! He goes from a sly comment to that smile and you trust everything that he has to say. And come on, who wouldn’t want this man to be your doctor?
