One of the fun “lists” I always like to watch and compile each year are which male film actors have done nude scenes. Back in the day, there were a LOT of male actors that took it all off. Looking back, I think the Michael Douglas and Mickey Rourke were probably naked more often than clothed! But, the dark, conservative days of the 1990s pretty much put a damper on all of that my to my dismay. The good news, however, is since George II left office and Obama came in, there seems to be a loosening of taboos coming back into mainstream media (even if Google, Pinterest, Tumblr and the like are now actively punishing adult entertainment websites).
So, here is my short list of current picks from the past year or so for your consideration….
- CRAIG PARKER (Spartacus)
- JASON BIGGS (American Reunion)
- GERARD BUTLER (Mrs. Brown re-leased director’s cut)
- MATT BOMER (Magic Mike)
- CHRIS MESSINA (28 Hotel Rooms)
- JOE MANGANIELLO (True Blood)
Let’s hope this trend keeps up! The movies and HBO/Showtime have just gotten a whole lot more interesting 🙂
Let’s now take a look at a great montage that my old friend at HuffPo (Oliver Noble) put together on this very topic….. Click here for Oliver’s list and video montage……
