One to Watch: Charlie Day

Day's Hollywood star continues to rise: He was recently cast in geek auteur Guillermo del Toro's highly anticipated robots-vs.-aliens extravaganza Pacific Rim, alongside Idris Elba (Obsessed) and Charlie Hunnam (star of another FX show, "Sons of Anarchy"). The special effects-heavy film is due in 2013.  

But it's his turn in Horrible Bosses as a dental assistant harassed by his sex-crazed employer (a gleefully outrageous Jennifer Aniston) that has moviegoers taking notice of the Bronx-born, Rhode Island-raised actor. Within 20 minutes of meeting Aniston on set, she was straddling him in lingerie. Nice work if you can get it!

Do you think Charlie Day could be Hollywood's next big comedy star? And will you be seeing Horrible Bosses when it opens July 8?
