Learn How The Four Body Types Determines A Celebrity Body Type Like Charlie Hunnam
Celebrity Charlie Hunnam displays his genetic scientific Standard Body Type One (BT1) shape physique/figure while taking time off with family and friends including his long-time partner Morgana McNelis. He is showing no obvious signs of skinny fat (cellulite, thin fat, normal weight obesity) anywhere on his body. The full development of his vertebrae (posture) and muscles/muscle mass is currently not in debate.
Science recognizes that one pound of muscle burns six calories per day, but one pound of regular fat (white fat/yellow fat/excess fat) and/or skinny fat only burns two to three calories. Which directly affects metabolism (the more skinny fat and/or regular fat, the slower the metabolism) as well as genetic body composition and shape. Having a strong metabolism because of all that muscle and muscle mass, no less, is an advantage that a fully developed BT1 typically offers, including aging gracefully.
Diet, exercise, lifestyle, metabolic rate (BMR), and BMI matter. But so do genes/genetics/DNA. As he continues to age, it will be interesting to see how well Charlie Hunnam successfully maintains his body shape physique/figure. Is he really a genetic scientific Body Type Two (BT2)?
Charlie Hunnam Physique/Figure – BT1
Star Hollywood actor Charlie Hunnam shows off his Body Type One shape/physique while training for a movie. After attending the Cumbria College of Art and Design in Carlisle, England (now part of the University of Cumbria) and graduating with dual degrees in film theory and film history along with a minor in performing arts, he intended to write and direct his own films. However, at the age of 17 during a trip to buy shoes at JD Sports on Christmas Eve, a production manager for the Newcastle-based teen drama Byker Grove (1998, BBC One/CBBC) approached him and subsequently cast him in his first professional role in three episodes of the show.
That led to his first big break a year later with a starring role in the Channel 4 drama Queer as Folk (1999-2000). Broadening his horizons, he accepted his first major motion picture part in the film Whatever Happened to Harold Smith? (1999). A bit part in the BBC children’s drama Microsoap (1999) was followed by him moving to the United States that same year.

With his star on the rise, he wasted no time landing recurring roles on The WB drama Young Americans in 2000 and the critically acclaimed FOX show Undeclared from 2001 to 2002. Maintaining a focus on movie acting as well, he appeared in the films Abandon (2002), Nicholas Nickleby (2002), and Cold Mountain (2003). Upon returning to England to shoot the movie Green Street (Hooligans) in 2005, he was granted the dubious distinction by many critics as offering one of the “worst accents in movie history” with his attempt at a Cockney accent.
His performance in the film Children of Men (2006) culminated in him finally breaking through, accepting the starring role in the popular FX television crime-drama show Sons of Anarchy (2008-14). The role catapulted him to fame. To date, he is also credited with appearing in television episodes of Shantaram (2022, Apple TV+). His next upcoming TV projects are Criminal (TBD, Amazon Prime Video) and Monster (TBD, Netflix).
In terms of movies, he has graced The Ledge (2011), 3,2,1… Frankie Go Boom (2012), Deadfall (2012), Pacific Rim (2013), Crimson Peak (2015), The Lost City of Z (2016), King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017), Papillon (2018), A Million Little Pieces (2019), Triple Frontier (2019), True History of the Kelly Gang (2019), Jungleland (2019), The Gentlemen (2019), Last Looks (2022), and Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire (2023),
