Shawn Laib READ TIME: 3 MIN.

Fans who are familiar with the LGBTQ+ TV landscape have most likely heard of Brandon Flynn. This 29-year-old first started gaining mainstream popularity when he portrayed Justin Foley in "13 Reasons Why" on Netflix.

It was one of the streamer's most popular teen drama series during the late 2010s and Flynn became even more well-known in the public eye when he started dating British musician Sam Smith in September 2017. Their relationship lasted for just under one year but we can understand why Smith was interested in Flynn: the actor has an irrefutable charm and magnetic personality online.

He's also very willing to show off his good looks with some thirst traps on Instagram. We'll look at Flynn's best IG posts to get you more acquainted with him.

This mutlipart post shows off Flynn modeling in New Orleans in 2022. Fans are treated to some of the actor's signature humor in a video showing off his haircut in which he went away from the mullet style he'd had before. Flynn also gives fans a couple of shirtless photos and a look at some of the Louisiana cuisine he enjoyed over the weekend in the southern state.

This photoshoot is a little more PG-13, as Flynn goes for a classy black and white look here accompanied by some simple black jeans and matching tank top. Fans in the comments section enjoyed how the shoot puts an emphasis on how handsome the actor is instead of focusing on his physique like many of his other photos do.

There's something about a man in a sweater and scarf that is both cozy and sexy. The combination looks great on Flynn in this Instagram post in which the actor is advertising for fashion company Sandro Paris. It looks like they made a good decision using Flynn as a model in this photoshoot.

This post demonstrates the thorough knowledge Flynn has of thirst trap staples on Instagram. He shows off his torso and feet while in the bathtub in this piece of marketing for The Kooples. The gold necklace is another nice accompanying touch here, but fans were more focused on his "bare dawgs."

This set of photos features Flynn with some friends seemingly at a wedding in Miami. Fans get to enjoy seeing the actor having fun and letting loose with some filters and he looks dapper in his suit and bowtie.

Celebrities don't always take the time to talk to their fans extensively but Flynn talks directly to the camera asking his fans to text him to talk about anything from their mental health to their struggles during the height of the pandemic. This is a very refreshing and genuine and nice change of pace, especially when it sometimes feels like celebrities don't appreciate the time and energy their fans pour into their movies and TV shows.

Flynn shows off his goods in this thirst trap. The star captioned the post by saying he was out of clean laundry, leaving him wearing nothing but his white briefs while sitting on the washing machine. Fans in the comments section certainly weren't complaining!

It's always fun to go back and see what actors looked like years ago, so this thirst trap from Flynn in 2018 is a great way to do so. As if we needed confirmation, the actor has been looking handsome for quite a while now!

Flynn decided to not only let his fans thirst over him in this photo, but also two other shirtless friends! The actor also knows how to use levity by pointing out how the two men make him much less muscular in comparison. This also looks like it's before Flynn got his tattoos that he now shows off frequently.

Any queer celebrity knows that they need some thirst traps where they show off their unique sense of fashion. Flynn contributes to that requirement here with some stylish makeup and a flamboyant fur coat. His black pants and shoes are a nice addition to the ensemble.

In this sweet picture, Flynn wishes his friend a happy birthday while showing off a sexy short hairstyle that we wish he would try out again sometime soon. Not everybody can pull off the buzzcut, but Flynn looks good no matter what!

Flynn decided to tap into his inner-late Millennial background here to show off his dance moves while listening to One Direction. Many people his age loved the boy band during the early 2010s, but not many look so adorable while dancing to the music. Many fans pointed out that the actor and the band were a combination they weren't expecting to see on their feeds, but they were overjoyed at it!
