Well the Academy has chosen their nominees for Best Whatev's and some of the men involved with these projects, we noticed, have really shown us their hidden talents that aren't so hidden anymore! So we went looking for any other flesh-revealing films and tv these up-and-comers (giggety!) might have appeared in. Some are nominated, or they are in films that are. With clips and pics courtesy of Mr. Man, we bring you more Oscar-nominated-related actors baring...well, some, if not all. (Okay, a couple bare all!)
Click here to watch the more salacious stuff from these and other celebs!
Bradley Cooper in Nip-Tuck Season 5 Ep. 10
Before he was a multi-Oscar nominee, this year for Maestro, Cooper was daring to be baring his backside on the early Murphy/Falchuck project Nip/Tuck. In this scene he displays his accommodating bedside manner, though he may actually want to be bedside to make it believable!
Cillian Murphy in Oppenheimer
Murphy may not be my physical type exactly, but he's always been one of my favorite actors for his riveting portrayals of gangsters and villains in Peaky Blinders and The Dark Knight trilogy, as the central figure in Oppenheimer which garnered, like, all the noms, or my favorite, running for his life from zombies in the groundbreaking 28 Days Later. While the nudity in Oppenheimer might have been a bit gratuitous (if she has to show it, he should show it!) we didn't mind some less cerebral content in this intense WWII era drama.
Jeffrey Wright in Westworld Season 2 Ep. 10
Nominated for Best Actor in the Bamboozled-like dark satire American Fiction, Wright first truly captivated us as "Belize" in the prize-winning play (and HBO adaption) Angels In America. And, if may be so bold, his buff cyber bod in Westworld is pretty captivating as well!
Mark Ruffalo in In the Cut
Ruffalo is simply a stunning actor. Stunning to watch his performances, stunning to feel his progressive moral social politics in the roles he takes and the causes he supports, and, well sure, stunning to look at. His Best Supporting nomination for Poor Things is well-deserved, after portraying such varied characters as the Larry Kramer-like character in the film version of Kramer's play The Normal Heart, to the sexiest Hulk ever put on screen. So when he drops trou and bares all when he beds Meg Ryan in In the Cut, it's just icing on his delicious cake.
Robert De Niro in 1900
De Niro has a storied career in American film, earning a Best Actor nomination for Killers of the Flower Moon. You have to go decades back into his carer to find him showing skin, but when he showed it, man did he go for it! Long before male celebs went full frontal, this guy was setting the standard in films like 1900, a Bertolucci-directed period drama costarring Gerard Depardieu. In this scene De Niro makes hay, but you'll have to check out the graphic threesome with Depardieu and a woman at Mr. Man to see all the franks and beans.
Ryan Gosling in Barbie
We won't go into the controversy of Gosling's nomination for the the movie that took pretty much everyone's money in the world last year. I think the official ticket sales were a gazillion billion trillion oh fudge it just take it all! Let's just look at that pretty face and chest, shall we?
Robert Downey Jr. in Fur-An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus
Downey, my favorite for Best Supporting Actor for Oppenheimer and pretty much everyone else's as well, has gone the big-budget route with film roles, as well as the weirdo wonderful indie route in films like ...Arbus where he beds Nicole Kidman after she shaves his entire face and body of his monkey-boy-like fur. Hey, if you know of Arbus's photography work, then you know that sentence is almost banal to describe a scene of a fantasy film of her fantastical photos. (Her work inspired the look and inclusion of the dead twins in The Shining!) From the look of his buns, we're thinking "Iron Man, indeed!"
Head over to Mr. Man to see these and so much more of male celebs.
