a lot more in this than a Jude Law type. He's been described as the intelligent woman's sex symbol - so how will that go over with the teen/early 20's female populace?"

Probably pretty good. Think Timothy Dalton. Young, handsome, able to look realistic in the special effect shots, but he didn't make it as 007 because he was too young. Wasn't there questions about Brosnan because he was too old?

Sex appeal attraction is age irrelevant. We have HD's. At every gathering we see all sorts of combinations of "older" men with (sometimes much) younger women. Looking at these pairings with a mothers eye, its not just the bike that they are attracted to. And how many men in their 40's & 50's have started a second family with a younger wife? LOTS. If a sexy, self assured (but not cocky) man makes even a beautiful woman feel beautiful, think what all those average looking women going to the movies are feeling.

As old as Sean Connery was supposed to be in "First Knight" he was still the ultimate in sexy and I can't think of any current star who will ever surpass his on-screen charm.
