Recently, there’s been a lot of naked talk about the stars of True Blood and it’s mostly about the men. Both Ryan Kwanten and Sam Trammell promise that they will spend very little time in wardrobe this season, so the fans will be sure to have an eye-candy treat of some nakedness from the two.
“We joke about it — and who has the record for the most disrobes,” says Trammell, who plays the shape-shifting Sam Merlot. “I think Ryan does. But I’m close behind him at this point because I’ve already disrobed like four or five times this year and I don’t think he has at all. I’ve got to fight that out with him. Ryan is definitely ready to show up and flaunt it, because he’s got the bod to back it up. He’s probably the least bashful.“
“I tend to think that I live my life relatively fearlessly,” admits Kwanten, who plays the heroic if not always clear-headed Jason Stackhouse. “If HBO knew half the things that I do in my personal life they probably wouldn’t be too happy about it … I have no fear. I sort of hide behind the guise that I am playing a character … Personally, I’m quite restrained and almost introverted. But as Mr. Stackhouse, I can’t afford to have any of those sensitivities.“
Trammell says the show’s producers don’t exactly help the cast stay in top shape for their frequent nude scenes. There is no exercise equipment on set, but plenty of tempting food on the craft services table.
“[Working out is] up to us,” he says. “They’ve got the cookies out.”
He said the cast has gradually gotten used to performing in the buff. “Some of the ladies are kind of shy sometimes … Pretty much the process is: You’re shy, you take off your clothes once and then it’s done.”
What a Cool photo of these guys! These 2 are just So funny together!
I enjoyed the video of them being interviewed at the SAG awards! These guys seem to be as much fun offscreen as they are onscreen! As for nudity on the show, C’mon its HBO of course there are goingto be adult elements! Besides I think that All the actors do a fine job. The nudity ansd sexual content Well, If you can handle Sookie’s 1st time with Bill and the graveyard sex scene Well, You can pretty much handle it All! LOL Its Cool ! Nudity,Sexual Content and graphiic violence are all part and parcel with the show! I’m not surprised Ryan and Sam were in the buff a lot in previous seasons Ryan alot in S1 and Sam in S1 and alot in S2.
