We didn\u2019t know if he was trustworthy; his personality was grating for our girl Katniss, and yet, within just a few minutes, he had us all jealous of a sugar cube &#8211; lucky horse.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/2025\/03\/24\/hold-on-who-is-plutarch-heavensbee-in-the-hunger-games-and-how-does-he-know-haymitch-and-katniss\">The Hunger Games<\/a> was Sam\u2019s third movie in the business, following minor roles in both Snow White and the Huntsman and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. But he was booked consistently after, going on to star in The Riot Club, Me Before You, Charlie&#8217;s Angels, <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/2025\/03\/19\/stranger-things-to-damsel-heres-how-much-coin-millie-bobby-brown-has-earned-from-netflix\">Enola Holmes<\/a>, and Daisy Jones &amp; the Six.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Sam posted a shirtless <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/tag\/tiktok\">TikTok<\/a> that had people comparing him to a young Hugh Jackman as he addressed men sitting down to pee. It was very much giving \u201cBlah blah blah proper name place name backstory stuff\u201d, but amongst the shockingly thirsty comments, many shared their shock at how different he now looks.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@samuelclaflin\/video\/7487607184671411478\" data-video-id=\"7487607184671411478\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width:605px; min-width:325px;\">\n<section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@samuelclaflin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@samuelclaflin?refer=embed\">@samuelclaflin<\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - SamClaflin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7487607224987093782?refer=embed\">\u266c original sound &#8211; SamClaflin<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The post, which has since amassed 1.4 million views and 305k likes, saw one person write: \u201cI was about to say you look like Sam Claflin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho is this rugged Viking man?\u201d another questioned.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, let\u2019s dive headfirst into an unapologetically thirsty walk down memory lane.<\/p>\n<h2>Sam Clafin has always had a baby face<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1059\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-resizer.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"458\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In 2010, a 23-year-old Sam Clafin was featured in the eight-part miniseries The Pillars of the Earth. Funnily enough, it also starred President Snow actor, Donald Sutherland.<\/p>\n<p>Pre-The Hunger Games, the biggest difference was undoubtedly the hair. It was darker and floppier and very much giving off a boy-next-door vibe. A year later, he was playing mermaid-smitten sailor Philip Swift in Pirates of the Caribbean, and his hair was considerably longer.<\/p>\n<h2>In 2013, a legend was born<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1060\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/intro-1680899145.jpg\" alt=\"Finnick\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I cannot begin to describe the chokehold Finnick Odair &#8211; both book and film &#8211; had on me in my teenage years. He was beefier in this role but still possessed the bimbo energy that became synonymous with the character in the subsequent films.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to his workout routine, Sam told Joe Wicks: \u201cI know some people go to the gym and they have to listen to hard rock or electro or whatever, but I listen to Hawaiian music or songs played on the ukulele. The most mellow music. Then I just sort of zone out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the same year, Sam starred in The Riot Club, and while his character was a w*****r, some of that lingering Finnick energy had me just as captivated. He oozed raging Tory energy, but I couldn\u2019t look past the pretty packaging.<\/p>\n<h2>His rom-com era is a favourite, just not mine<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1062\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/LS-MBY-1-1024x603-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sam Clafin\" width=\"1024\" height=\"603\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After some action flicks and fantasy films, Sam Clafin diversified his IMDb page in the mid-2010s with romantic films such as Love, Rosie, Me Before You, and My Cousin Rachel.<\/p>\n<p>He was back to mousy brown for most of these films and seemed skinnier because romantic leads don\u2019t tend to use tridents in dystopian death matches.<\/p>\n<h2>He\u2019s gone through A LOT of facial hair options<\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CqAGaQ-siHC\/?hl=en&#038;img_index=1<\/p>\n<p>Facial hair can make or break a man, and Sam Clafin has been through many ups and downs on his way to &#8211; as TikTok put it this week &#8211; \u201cdaddyyyy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s done stubble, full-on moustache, unkept madness, and even a neckbeard. Stubble Sam is an easy win, but I\u2019m not quite getting the straggly, unruly beard look like other people.<\/p>\n<p>He should definitely bring back the Enola Holmes moustache, though. The world would be a better place with more fun moustaches.<\/p>\n<h2>Daisy Jones &amp; The Six was Sam Clafin at his finest<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1064\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2023-06-23-at-10.46.09-AM.webp\" alt=\"Sam\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" \/><\/p>\n<p>2023\u2019s Daisy Jones &amp; The Six was set in the later 70s, so obviously, it called for a retro haircut of the era. Sam\u2019s character, Billy Dune, sported a shaggy mullet, and while I hold Finnick\u2019s blonde tresses on a first-place pedestal, this one is a close second.<\/p>\n<p>Long hair, a cheeky smile, and a jawline that could cut glass &#8211; you really can\u2019t beat it.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more like this and for the latest memes, quizzes, updates and general pop culture chaos \u2013\u00a0<a
