Sir Ian McKellen

I came across this picture of a very young and handsome Sir Ian McKellen and wanted to share it will you all.

If you don't know who he is..some of his more recent and geeky roles have been Gandalf from the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and Magneto from the Xmen movies.

In 1988, McKellen came out and announced he was gay (publicly) as it's was known in the entertainment industry. He became a founding member of Stonewall, one of the United Kingdom's most influential LGBT rights groups, of which he remains a prominent spokesman.

He's a fantastic actor and human being, fighting for the equality and rights of all people.
