Stellan Skarsgård: Father Figure

'When you have kids, you see what's important.' 

Stellan Skarsgård

The Father of the acting, (and nude scene) dynasty, Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgård began his professional acting career at the age of 21.  The Swedish actor appeared mostly in Swedish films and television shows until 1985 when he made his American film debut in Noon White.  American audiences got to know Stellan from his roles in films including; The Hunt for Red October, Good Will Hunting and of course in Mamma Mia and it's sequel.

Stellan's first on-screen nude scene was in 1999's The Unbearable Likeness of Being, and has since appeared naked on screen over a half-a-dozen.  Like father, like sons they say and in addition to his good looks, Stellan obviously also passed on his attitude about nude scenes which clearly rubbed off on his four actor sons.

Mamma Mia (2008)

Although Stellan's last nude scene was over a decade ago, the now 73 year old continues to work steadily.  Movie goers last enjoyed Stellan on screen in Thor: Love and Thunder and as Baron Vladimir Harkonnen in the recent re-makes of Dune.  Below are two of my favorite nude scenes from Stellan.  All clips of the Skarsgård's scenes thanks to xyzpdq.

Breaking The Waves (1995)

'Oilman Jan is paralyzed in an accident. His wife, who prayed for his return, feels guilty; even more, when Jan urges her to have sex with another.;

'I've made six films for Disney, and they have a clause in their contracts called the morality clause that I've always refused to sign.'
