Hunnam Ditches Period Roles To Become A Real-life Biker

British actor CHARLIE HUNNAM loves playing a tough biker on TV so much, he has become a low-key Hell’s Angel.

The star of period movie Nicholas Nickleby plays a gruff biker on hit U.S. TV show Sons of Anarchy - and he really has taken to the part.

As well as choosing to follow strict biker codes and fashions, the Brit wears a bullet round his neck to honour a fallen rider pal and has just bought a Harley Davidson Dyna Super Glide - just like the one his character rides in the show.

He says, “I hang out with them (bikers) for a few days whenever I start to feel like I’m wavering .

“It’s a question of knowing how to behave. Be quiet until you have a really firm grasp on what’s going on, and then you can open up a little bit… They’re not succumbing to living life in a nine-to-five way. That’s something I understand.”
