True Blood hotness Ryan Kwanten is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new supplemental magazine GQ Style which just launched down under in Australia. GQ Style is a supplement that comes packaged with GQ magazine and the first Aussie issue features the country’s own Kwanten. Here is our first look at Ryan‘s GQ Style cover and some excerpts from his coverstory interview:

True Blood star Ryan Kwanten is the cover face of the launch edition of GQ Style Australia. In an accompanying interview, the 33-year-old Aussie-born actor has told how he messed up an audition for Steven Spielberg after parking his pushbike in the director’s parking space. “I was running about five minutes late and there was nothing to tie my bike up to,” he explained. “So I found this sort of wooden stake and put my bike around it with this long bike chain. I went into the audition and sat down with the other guys. Two seconds later an assistant comes running in and says, ‘Does anyone ride a bicycle?’ And I’ve said, ‘Yeah, that’s me’. So he grabs me by the wrist and throws me outside. And there, sure enough, is Spielberg sitting in his big SUV. The wooden bar I tied my bike to had an S. Spielberg sign on it. Needless to say, I didn’t get that job and have never worked for Spielberg since.”

Awww … poor Ryan. Well, I guess it turns out that it was Spielberg‘s loss cuz look at little Ryan now ;) And, I have to say, despite the fully-clothedness of this cover photo, I am totally digging Ryan‘s smoldering steel gaze in this coverphoto … meow! After the jump, check out a few photos from Ryan‘s GQ Style photospread …

This man is just hot … what is it about Aussie men? It is very rare to find an unattractive Australian … and if you do see one, it usually turns out that they are a transplant from elsewhere. Ryan Kwanten is a fine representative of the country’s very fine specimen of man. GQ Style chose well by putting Ryan Kwanten on the inaugural issue of their publication.
