The Queer as Folk actor caused a stir on the set of his new film, after he posed for the picture with one lucky fan.

Charlie Hunnam made one fan’s dream come true on Tuesday when he posed for a photo with one lucky fan while out in Belfast with co-star – and fellow heartthrob – Robert Pattinson.

The handsome duo – who both sported a rather scruffy beard – put their arms around an excited Nikki Fynn after she asked to take a photo with them.

Nikki captioned the snapshot, “In BELFAST hanging with SAMCRO Charlie Hunnam and TWILIGHT Robert Pattinson!!! Yes I had a heart attack.”

The actors are currently in Ireland filming the upcoming The Lost City of Z.

Charlie Hunnam first rose to fame in cult gay TV show Queer as Folk – in which he played impressionable youth Nathan Maloney.

However, he is probably best know for playing Jackson “Jax” Teller in hit US TV show Sons of Anarchy and starring roles in films such as Pacific Rim – not to mention his rather (ahem) impressive physique.

Hunnam was recently unveiled as the newest actor to play the legendary King Arthur, after posing on the cover of Entertainment Weekly.

The reboot will hit screens next summer, and is directed by Guy Ritchie.
