Robert Pattinson who? Taylor Lautner what? Listen we love those guys, but with "Eclipse" out now, Xavier Samuel has us thanking the good lord, or at least Victoria, that he's a part of the "Twilight Saga." The sexy newcomer impressed us so much, in fact, that he's this week's Hump Day Hottie.



Press play on the video below to see more of Xavier and see his reaction to being this week's Hump Day Hottie, and then keep reading for more details about him!

Vital Stats: Whatever they put in the water is Australia must make the dudes that come out of their super hot. Xavier was raised on that fine island and the 26-year-old later studied drama to hone his acting skills. It's worked. We've never seen someone lead a pack of starving bloodsuckers quite like he does!


And, in case you're wondering how he feels about being this week's Hump Day Hottie, he is taking it all in stride, even if his co-stars Bryce Dallas Howard and Dakota Fanning think the honor is a bit humorous. "Well I just never thought something like would happen and when it does it's kind of surreal," he said with a hint of sarcasm. "You feel like you've made it."

Where you might have already seen him: He's done some theater (he once played Hamlet), and he's done a number of smaller films like "Newcastle," "Road Kill," "The Loved Ones" and "Dream Life." So, these would be great flicks call up on your Netflix list if you're hoping to see more of the man we will now refer to as Triple X. Yes, he's that hot.

Why you should take notice of him now: Well, he's in "Eclipse," for one. He plays newborn vampire Riley and happens to be quite the scene stealer. And, not to spoil it, since he, uh, won't exactly be in "Breaking Dawn," we suggest you see his epic turn STAT and relish every minute of it.

Why? If only to watch him emerge from the water over and over and over again. "Well, I'm lucky it was kind of covered the first night at drama school," he joked to MTV News at the "Eclipse" black carpet premiere about preparing for the scene. "Let me say a large source of inspiration for that scene was Denise Richards in 'Wild Things.'"

If you're sad he's not going to be in any more "Twilight" flicks (paging Bill Condon: can Riley please come back as a ghost?), don't fret because he just wrapped the Roland Emmerich flick, "Anonymous," co-starring Jamie Campbell Bower.

Until next week, when we chose another Hump Day Hottie, you can salute Xavier by pressing play on the video above (believe us when we say: it's worth it)!
