For leading men in the world of Hollywood, showbiz, and TV, a killer moustache can complete a famous look and make it truly iconic.
Would Friends be the same if Richard Burke hadn’t been blessed with Tom Selleck’s iconic nose neighbour? Would Ned Flanders be the same without his?
Charlie Chaplin had a career that lasted 75 years but his most famous looks come from his black tash era. Sacha Baron Cohen’s character Borat inspired Halloween costumes for decades.
And the joy of having one isn’t just limited to film and TV either, with rockstars like Freddie Mercury, wrestlers like Hulk Hogan, and legendary artists like Salvador Dali all sporting iconic facial hair styles of their own.
It’s also Movember season, which means even ordinary men around the world aregrowing their best ‘staches to raise as much money as they can for charity.
But when it comes to the most famous moustaches in the world right now, whose stands out among the crowd for being the biggest, bushiest, and best?
Henry Cavill

On a Reddit forum dedicated to Man of Steel actor Henry Cavill, a popular post from user @KendraKiss asks: ‘The Moustache Era. Henry at his finest?’
The picture features Henry Cavill appearing at various red carpet events, and in various roles, sporting the moustache he wore handsomely during the mid-2010s.
In fact, Henry’s moustache was so popular and attracted so much attention that superhero fans noticed immediately when it had been CGI-edited out of a film he’d starred in.
While filming for 2017’s Justice League, Henry had also been working on his role in Mission: Impossible – Fallout, leaving filmmakers with no choice but to airbrush his top lip.
Despite that controversy being seven years ago, people have still Googled Henry Cavill’s moustache over 280,000 times in 2024 alone.

Being Taylor Swift’s boyfriend arguably puts Travis Kelce in the conversation for being the most famous man on the planet – just by association.
The Kansas City NFL player and three-time Super Bowl winner, 35, started sporting a very prominent moustache at the start of the NFL regular season in September.
It attracted significant media attention as Travis said he felt like a ‘different character’ – the moustache seems to have been grown as a tribute to his team coach Andy Reid’s own push broom.
There’s not much known about how his partner Taylor Swift feels about it, but we can’t imagine Travis could ever do too much to upset his popstar sweetheart.
His moustache has now been Googled almost 140,000 times in the last 11 months, with the majority of that activity coming in just the last 12 weeks.
