Rudy Pankow’s role on Outer Banks turned him into an undeniable heartthrob basically overnight. He plays JJ on the Netflix teen drama, which follows a group of extraordinarily good looking North Carolina teens known as the Pogues. These kids know how to deliver the kind of angst you loved on The O.C. and One Tree Hill, but they bring something else to the table, too: The Pogues are looking for a hidden treasure. JJ may be a little quick to fly off the handle as this journey goes on, but fans can tell you that you're bound to fall for him anyway.
