8 Huge Stars Who Were In Skins
5. Nicholas Hoult
Told you we'd be back to Tony.
The focus of the very first episode of the show, Tony Stonem was one of the key members of the first generation cast of Skins.
Charming, smart, attractive, but also flawed and manipulative, Tony went through a rollercoaster of character development, eventually redeeming himself to his best friend and girlfriend in the final episode of Season 2.
Tony's arc is one of the better ones across the entire show and the character's complexities are brilliantly portrayed by Nicholas Hoult, a name now familiar to many.
A thirteen-year-old Hoult had already found some fame before Skins with his role in the romantic comedy, About A Boy. However, his post-Skins career is seriously stacked.
Kidulthood, Clash of the Titans, Mad Max: Fury Road, Hoult's filmography is seriously impressive, and that's without his recurring role as Hank McCoy (better know as Beast) in the rebooted X-Men franchise.
Hoult is only 30-years-old and his star is still very much on the rise. He is scheduled to make his debut in the Mission Impossible franchise next year, which can only improve his already high profile.
Not bad for someone who got hit by a bus.
