Eeks! Here's some scary blind item action for you: "Which hunk in a summer movie is a violent, closeted homosexual? The heartthrob snuck into his ex's apartment a few months ago and raped him so violently, the ex ended up in the hospital - and the actor paid him $500,000 to keep his mouth shut…" [NY Post]
Brendan Fraser
Chuck Norris.
uhh… Christian Bale - already arrested once for attacking his MOTHER.

Oh I don't bleedin' know, you guys going to tell us????
Surely not harrison ford?
With a name like Shia Lebouf I have to say it's him.
i agree with dawster: christian bale
Well, I hope it's NO-ONE and that this is just stupid inflammatory blind item. Seems like its point is to keep people thinking that being closeted equates to being evil …
I'd say Robert Downey Jr., but he's past "hunk" status.
Marty^3- being closeted equates to emotional repression that can easily lead to (self) destructive behavior. That's why so many queer bashers themselves are closet queers. If you deny that, you're a fool.
it couldn't have been shia, what w/ the busted hand and all.
@ Martymartymarty: Excellent observation, I'm there with you.
James Franco
Will Smith?
Tom Cruise?
Aren't there more "closeted homosexuals" than just Tom Cruise?
I too agree with Martymartymarty @8.
Edward Norton? I know it's a bit obvious - the Hulk! - but he's seems like the type to explode for not getting what he wants. Probably not though. It probably isn't a big celebrity because that would've made headlines despite the $500,000. With a story like that you could make millions in exclusive interviews.
how about vin diesel….?
he has a summer movie coming out and apparently the rumor is he is closeted.
I'd venture to guess it's Matthew McConaugay.
John Edwards?
Darth Paul, you make an excellent point.
MartyX3, the fact that Churchill-y agrees with you should be enough to make you rethink this.
@#3 (Dawster)
Christian Bale was questioned by the police about an attack on his mother but no charges were brought. The police aren't investigating this further.
What happened to presumed innocent?
raped him so violently, ended up in the hospital and the actor paid him $500,000 to keep his mouth shut…I should be so LUCKY!
@ #3 Dawster
For crying out loud, he yelled at her, he didn't beat her. It was a *verbal* attack darling.
One the charges were dropped in I'll add.

Anyway…yikes!! Though it just says 'summer movie' not 'hit summer movie'. If I had to pick I'd go with Brendan Frasier…BUT! Wait, Tom Cruise is in Tropic Thunder. I'll go with him…that's a most awful blind item though o.O
C'mon it's obviously Jack Black. He had two hit summer movies, Kung Fu Panda and Tropic Thunder, lol.
Jason Stathom?
He's well trained in Marial Arts and Kickboxing and there were quite a few rumors out ther while back that he was hooking up with guys.
It is certainly easy reading for the dog days of summer. I am circumsoect of its truthfulness since it is from a Rupert Murdoch scandal sheet.
Besides, does Joel Osteen need a meager $500,000?
Leslie Jordan…or is he out? ;o)
#1 Got it right. Brendan Fraser was the correct answer. Thanks for playing now move on. Nothing to See here…
Easy- It's probably not James Franco…or anyone in "Milk". Someone in the closet wouldn't probably choose a role like that…most likely it is Mathew Maccanaghey. he had an "incident" with an A&F model a while ago…Remember his "bromance" with Lance Armstrong? Lance probably introduced him to steroid which fuels that sort of behaviour…
Towleroad links to a site that says it is Will Smith. Here is their source.

I think it's Jake Gyllenhaal.
