Evidently, all the successful actors have done so for the sake of creating art. Well, if we are talking about great actors, one name is likely to cross everyone’s mind and that is Ryan Reynolds, who went fully nude for one scene in Deadpool.

Deadpool is one of the most popular superhero movies. Furthermore, it is also one of Reynolds’s most successful roles. In an interview prior to the release, Reynolds opened up about shooting the nude scene in the 2016 movie.

You just have a little talk with the crew at the beginning of the day. You say, ‘Guys, you’re gonna see things that you maybe shouldn’t see.‘ I kinda got an idea what it is like to work in an Adult industry. I’m not above taking my clothes off for money, that’s the bottom line” revealed Reynolds on The Ellen Show.

The Free Guy actor jokingly confessed that he had to forewarn the crew before shooting the nude scene in the movie. In case you forgot, Ryan’s nude scene occurs right after Wade Wilson goes through arduous torture done by Ajax and Angel Dust. Apparently, the nude fight scene was a way of paying homage to a scene in the 2007 gangster movie Eastern Promises. In one of the scenes of Eastern Promises, a naked Nikolai (played by Viggo Mortensen) is attacked by a group of men in a sauna.
