Alexander Skarsgård Has No Problem Getting Naked

Alexander Skarsgård as Eric Northman in True BloodAnyone who watches premium cable TV knows that nudity is par for the course on an HBO show. True Blood is no exception with its gorgeous cast having little problem stripping down for the camera. Earlier this week we found out how Anna Paquin (Sookie Stackhouse) feels about being nude on camera, but how do the men of our favorite supernatural show feel about the topic?

Recently E! correspondent Mark Malkin caught up with one of our beloved True Blood cast members and discovered a few juicy tidbits about Alexander Skarsgård, who plays our favorite Swedish Viking vampire, Eric Northman.

Kristen Bauer van Straten, who plays Eric’s progeny, the deliciously devious ‘Pam,’ told Malkin:

“He was once naked for about eight hours and he’s completely comfortable with it. He’s Swedish. My husband’s band toured in Sweden and he said that just how it is. There’s no puritanical background there. It’s nice because it makes all of us more comfortable with it.”

Interesting. I wonder what was being shot on that particular day? Perhaps it was the dungeon scene in which Sookie finds Eric in flagrante delicto with Fangtasia dancer Yvetta (Natasha Alam)?
