Big names draw money and big names in Hollywood are often (but not always) conventionally attractive. I think part of the appeal of historical/biographical productions is that we get to see a more exciting and stylised representation of a "true story", and that often means the characters are more conventionally attractive than they otherwise would be. It is quite amusing though, similar to how teenagers are often played by actors well into their 20s (sometimes even older in the case of extras and minor roles).
