Drew Roy

I instinctively root for Drew Roy the moment I hear his story: a kid from tiny Clanton, Alabama, packing up for Los Angeles on nothing but ambition. Best known as Hal in Falling Skies and as Jesse on Hannah Montana, he occupies that clean-cut leading-man lane, but anchoring a sci-fi drama as the brother holding a family together takes more spine than a pretty face suggests. What I appreciate is the groundedness; you can feel the small-town upbringing in the steadiness he brings to the screen. He didn't inherit Hollywood, he commuted to it from the rural South, and that quiet nerve earns my admiration.
