Success.
Charlize reportedly earned $10 million for her performance in 2005's Aeon Flux, thanks in part to her Oscar win for Monster two years earlier. Whatever the reason, she's definitely become one of Hollywood's well-compensated actresses and signed endorsement deals with high-end brands like John Galliano and Christian Dior. Stuart is a smaller-time actor and director, known for his roles in films like Chaos Theory, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Queen of the Damned.

People

Attractiveness.
Charlize is undeniably beautiful -- Esquire named her the Sexiest Woman Alive in a 2007 issue. Townsend's perfectly scruffy face and angular features are no less stunning.

Staying Power.
This couple has been together since they starred together in 2002's Trapped, and they don't show any signs of splitting up. Like many other celebrities, Charlize has said that she won't marry until same-sex couples have the right to do so, too. Still, Townsend recently revealed that he and Theron consider each other to be husband and wife. She's had one previous celebrity boyfriend: Stephan Jenkins of Third Eye Blind.

Compatibiliy.
Charlize is a Leo, and Stuart is a Sagittarius. By nature, they are both fun-loving and vivacious, with endless passion and chemistry. As long as he doesn't flirt too much and bruise her inflated ego, they should be fine. Any all-male casts available for Townsend to join?
