This charismatic, stage-trained Scotsman first came to prominence in two movies directed by Danny Boyle: the 1994 comic thriller
Shallow Grave
and the 1996 heroin-addiction epic
Trainspotting
. McGregor was captivating in both as two very flawed yet undeniably charming characters. In 1997 he did an Emmy-nominated turn on
ER
as a desperate (but charming) robber. Yet the versatile actor didn't truly become a star until he won the role of a young Obi-Wan Kenobi in the much-ballyhooed second
Star Wars
trilogy. Although the films kept him busy between 1999 and 2005, the versatile actor still found time to appear in a number of more offbeat projects. He starred as legendary Irish author James Joyce in
Nora
(which he also produced), spun seductive Southern tales in
Big Fish
, and sang and danced in the musical
Moulin Rouge
. That vocal experience came in handy when he signed on to star in the 2005 revival of
Guys and Dolls
in London's West End. With dreamy blue eyes and a cleft chin, McGregor is certainly a heartthrob, yet he eschews the typical Hollywood party lifestyle and leads a private life with his wife (production designer Eve Mavrakis) and children.
