Colin Firth owns this role
There have been other appealing Darcys. David Rintoul, my first Darcy, was so handsome and appropriate in the role. Lawrence Olivier was noble and gorgeous in the bloom of youth. Matthew McFadyen was a likeable enough Darcy, with brooding depths. But Colin Firth so completely embodies the man, with such perfection of looks and action. I daresay Jane Austen herself would approve him as the very likeness of the character she created.
