Ryan Interview

New Weekly has an interview with Ryan Kwanten.
Check it all out here.
Here is an excerpt:
You’ve done some pretty racy scenes in True Blood – is it difficult getting your kit off in front of the cast and crew?
It’s not easy! But I always feel worse for the lady I’m doing it with, purely for the fact that 80 per cent of the crew are male and the girl is just as close to naked as I am. And I know that they’re going to be nervous. There have been a few times that I could literally feel them shaking in my arms. I make sure that we go nowhere near the set until they are totally and utterly comfortable.
Alexander Skarsgard recently did a nude scene too – did you give him any pointers?
No, all the guys have their fair share of it. It’s one of those things you can’t just dip your toes [into]. You have to completely dive in and go for it. I kind of set the bar pretty quickly because literally my very first day on set had two sex scenes back to back! Jason, in the first two or three episodes, is very rambunctious. In the third season I get to keep my clothes on a lot more – which has been nice.
Is it true you have a sock you wear to cover yourself?
Ah yeah! That’s the name we give it. The sock or the modesty patch. There are all sorts of nicknames.
