Why is Daniel Sharman so pretty? (Eros and Greek gods)

So I'm pretty obsessed with Ancient Greece, that's not exactly a secret. I'm in the process of writing a Hermes story and lately I've been thinking about Eros.

Now you may perceive him differently, but to me it seems that he's quite a mysterious being. There seems to be more references to the roman incarnation than the Greek. And when things like that happen I'm more attracted to the subject. In fact, I'm not sure where my love for Hermes stemmed from, but he rarely gets the starring role. He just drops by.

Anywho, I'm writing an Eros story :)
It's called Winter Sun, and at the moment I'm viewing it as a short story with no more than five parts. I also decided that he shall be played by the wonderful Daniel Sharman (because that man is quite godlike right?)

- we won't talk about how he's played Ares. Because then we'll also have to mention that Luke Evans has played Zeus when he's clearly Apollo. And Henry Cavill as Theseus when he's actually Hermes.
Thank you please.

Any people you think of when you picture certain gods/goddesses or even fictional characters from books?
