Alexander Skarsgard: 'I've Never Been on a Diet'

September 16, 2011 Celebrity Highlights

"True Blood" star Alexander Skarsgard sat down with "Extra's" Maria Menounos to chat about his upcoming violent thriller "Straw Dogs" -- and his hot bod.

Skarsgard plays an evil Southerner in "Straw Dogs," terrorizing a married couple (James Marsden and Kate Bosworth), but the actor said it was tough fighting Marsden because he's a friend. "There's a big scene towards the end, a big fight scene. I was worried, I love him. I didn't want to hurt him."

As for his lean physique, the hunky Swede confessed, "I eat whatever I want. I've never been on a diet."

Skarsgard did make Menounos blush. She relayed a recent comment Stephen Moyer made to "Extra" about putting a camera in Skarsgard's c***sock, to make sure Skarsgard didn't go too far in his steamy love scenes with "True Blood" actress Anna Paquin, Moyer's real-life wife.

"I haven't seen that footage," laughed Skarsgard. "Steve's a brilliant man. I want to see that footage!"

The "True Blood" Season 4 finale left audiences wondering who is really dead. Skarsgard explained, "It's getting complicated and people will get very disappointed. Not the audience, but the characters on the show."

"Straw Dogs" takes a walk into theaters September 16.
