Have the hots for Alexander Skarsgård? Join the very, very long line. He’s about to get extra kinky alongside the far less attractive Harry Melling in an A24 drama-comedy that had its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival back in May. A bombshell felt by every gay man around the globe hit when Skarsgård casually admitted to bisexual experiences. Who are these lucky men?!
First of all, it’s worth noting that Skarsgård arrived at the Zurich Film Festival wearing an NSFW dildo shirt. In Pillion, he plays a biker gang leader who enters a BDSM relationship with a young gay man.
According to Variety, Skarsgård talked about what drew him to this role.
“I found that in this case, it’s not really relevant what my background is,” he said. “I mean, I do have a kid, but what I’ve done in the past, who I’ve been with, men, women … To me, what was important was that this felt like an opportunity to tell a story about a subculture I hadn’t seen portrayed this way – with so much authenticity.”
He referred to the Al Pacino-starring Cruising, where he described the community “as this dark underbelly of New York City and it’s dangerous, murderous and scary. Leather gays are scary. I’m no Ray, but I have a little bit of experience from that world and I know that’s not the truthful depiction.”
It’s great that the actor wants to dispel stigma and negative stereotypes, but of course, our minds wander to what those sexual experiences must have been like.
Take a look below to see his character poster and the full teaser trailer:
Are you excited to see Pillion?
He is a total hot and very sexy man, I could care less of his sexuality. I loved him on True Bloods!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hell-ywood is my generation Sodom and Gomorrah. These actors say it’s just an acting part but in truth it is who they are and what Hell-ywood is made of. The movie
itself seemed quite boring.
Not convinced
