Since there is a lot of similarity in the looks between "Mr. And Mrs. Smith" famed actor Pitt and Hunnam, that seems to be the prime reason behind choosing Pitt to play the role of Hunnam's father.

How awesome would that be?" added Hunnam.

This group of bikers have been involved in petty crimes in the past, however, are strictly against drug-trafficking. They try to prevent drug racketing and the illegal exchange of hands of the deadly poison on the city streets.

The interviewer asked him, ''Are you seeing anything else over there?'' To answer to that Hunnam laughed and mentioned, ''No, just Calvin. I don't have any interest in anything else.''
