He may play a fire-controlling vampire in the upcoming "Vampire Academy," but Dominic Sherwood most assuredly does not suck. He's so not-sucky, in fact, that we're crushing on him this week, making him MTV News' pick for #ManCrushMonday.

We'll get to feast our eyes on Sherwood in the flick February 7, when he shows us just how literally he takes his title of hottie: Sherwood plays Christian Ozeri, a moody dude who just so happens to have a healthy dose of fire magic in his veins.

Here are a few reasons we're enchanted with this week's man crush, Dominic Sherwood.
