Billy Elliot In All His Shirtless Glory

Now this is more like it!

Jamie Bell, aka Billy Elliot, is looking hawt in a new still from his upcoming film The Eagle of the Ninth, set to release in 2010.

Bell plays Esca, a Celtic slave of his master, a young centurion called Marcus Aquila, played by Channing Tatum.

Channing Tatum AND Jamie Bell???

Double the hawtness!

Let’s just hope there’s lots of shirtless battles!
