Horror Hunks: Alexander Skarsgård in The Stand


'After the world is in ruins, due to a man-made plague, a battle of Biblical proportions ensues between the survivors.'


Although some extra's were shown naked in the recently released Dr. Death, I don't get Peacock, and have yet to watch the show.  The most notable male nudity found in source material from Stephen King is actor Alexander Skarsgård in the most current adaptation of King's classic The Stand.


Skarsgård plays one of King's most well known characters, Randall Flagg.  In the Stand, Flagg is a demonic figure who wreaks havoc after a plague kills most of the world population.  The character has appeared in nine of King's novels including The Eyes of the Dragon and The Dark Tower series.


Now let's be honest.  It isn't really a huge challenge to get the pants off the men in the Skarsgård family.  Alexander is known for his incredible looks and many nude scenes, he made headline news for his frontal in True Blood.  It starts at the top, and Alexander's father Stellan has had nude scenes in over a half a dozen films.  King can be credited, for providing the source material for two members of the family.  Alexander and his younger brother Bill.  Bill appeared nude, (rear) in the King inspired series Castle Rock.
