Alternative for 'hunk'
Hey! Can you tell me an alternative word for 'hunk'? I'm translating something to Turkish and we don't have an equivalent for this word. The text is about an actor, and goes like "...this screen hunk..."

"Heartthrob" works, but it is more gender neutral than "hunk".

"hottie" is also close.
"Hunk" implies that the man is very attractive and that he's muscular. (I've never heard "hunk" used for a woman).

"Hunk" refers to a man who is well muscled. "Dreamboat" in addition to what others said.
