Wilson Bethel latest superstud who loves motorcycles
Ladies, grab that list of good-looking celebrities who like to ride and add Wilson Bethel to that laminated card of riding buddies.
Bethel, 27, is an American actor best known for his role as Ryder Callahan on the CBS daytime soap opera 'The Young and the Restless'. But it’s his role as Wade Kinsella on the CW Network comedy-drama, 'Hart of Dixie' that is being called his break out role. It’s the recent attention from this role that’s revealed his motorcycle passions through interviews and of all things, advertisements for watches.
Raised in a small town in New Hampshire, Wilson ultimately landed in Los Angeles, and is now starring as bad boy “Wade Kinsella” on The CW’s Hart of Dixie (Mondays at 9/8C). But he’s not just a big talent on the small-screen; he’ll also be starring in two upcoming feature films: Stealing Summers and The First Ride of Wyatt Earp.
One to find humor in most situations, he jokes that he gets paid to kiss beautiful women and take advantage of the free food, but he’s truly motivated by the talent that surrounds him and, thanks to his parents, draws inspiration from iconic talent like Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
In his free time you’ll catch him riding his motorcycle or going for a hike or a bike ride – anything to be outside and take advantage of the California lifestyle.
Guys might know Bethel from his role in the 2008 Vietnam War film, 1968 Tunnel Rats where he played the Army Special Ops soldier, Corporal Green. This was followed by his role as Corporal Evan "Q-Tip" Stafford in the 2008 HBO mini-series Generation Kill with Bethel appearing in all 7 episodes as well as the HBO documentary short Making Generation Kill.
As with all good stories, a motorcycle was at the heart of a recent interview on the celebrity website E! and its special ‘2011 Breakout TV Stars’.
“I've had only a very small handful of actual recognitions, but I was getting my motorcycle worked on at this super roughneck spot here in L.A., you know with all these total greased-up, grease-ball, tatted-up, facial tattoo mechanics,” he told Tierney Bricker
“I'm wheeling my bike outta there and this guy comes up to me and he's like, ‘Hey man, nice job on Hart of Dixie.’ The fact that that was one of about three recognitions I've had on the show is telling, I guess. I don't know who exactly watches Hart of Dixie, but it surprises even me,” Bethel said.
Of course, we are still trying to find out exactly what he likes to ride, but something tells the staff of Clutch and Chrome thats a minor detail for the female motorcycle enthusiasts out there.
