Before They Were Stars
The Sizzling Cast of Boardwalk Empire Before They Were Stars
Back for a fifth and final season, Boardwalk Empire promises more grisly murders, new unexpected villains, and some surprisingly sexy twists. Set during Prohibition, Boardwalk Empire is the riveting tale of a corrupt politician’s alcohol-soaked reign over Atlantic City—and all those who work with and against him. Everything about the show is amazing to look at: the sets, the costumes, and not least the faces of its stars. More Golden Globes are likely in Boardwalk Empire's future. We’ll drink to that.

Charlie Cox as Owen Slater on Boardwalk Empire
This British charmer was Lorenzo in the acclaimed Al Pacino production of The Merchant of Venice before charming us as Tristan Thorn in the adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s fantastical Stardust, opposite Claire Danes and Michelle Pfeiffer. He came on strong this past season on Boardwalk Empire as Nucky’s body man Owen, who ended up stealing into the bed (and heart) of his employer’s wife, Margaret. But it didn’t end well for the go-to hitman, as he ended up mailed in a box, and not the coffin kind.
