13 Actors Who Said "No Thanks" To Prosthetics And Went Full Commando On Screen

This post mentions shows/movies that deal with topics like sexual abuse.

A couple of weeks ago, we talked about actors who fooled viewers by wearing prosthetic penises, butts, boobs, and more in their movies and TV shows.

And since y'all were so fascinated by that, we decided to take a look into the flip side and see how many actors haven't used prosthetics. So, here are 13 actors who didn't wear any sort of prosthetic and went au natural in their nude scenes:

1. Cooper Koch appeared naked in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story and confirmed he doesn't wear a prosthetic penis in the series. He even said that he was "shocked" at the public response to the nudity, he said, "I'm an actor, and I'm talking about doing a nude scene in a TV show, and, yes, the TV show also has to do with sexual abuse. Like, it's just sort of an unfortunate pairing that happened. I was comfortable doing it, and...we all have bodies and body parts, and it's just sort of, like, normal for me."

2. Alison Brie did a nude scene in the movie Somebody I Used To Know where her character streaks through a golf course. "I find it to be quite hilarious. I'm a very comfortable naked person," she said. "I love streaking. It's so fun. It really makes me laugh. I always think it makes other people laugh. It's just one of my favorite things."

3. Jesse Williams starred in Take Me Out on Broadway, where he was required to fully strip down onstage, and after several "Are you sure?" questions from his friends, family, and Grey's Anatomy castmates, he said he "wasn't nervous" for them to see the scene.

4. When Daniel Radcliffe starred in Equus on Broadway, he had a scene that required him to be fully naked onstage, and said he wasn't as nervous as he thought he'd be: "It never really was an issue. I don’t know why, it probably should have been. I am terribly self-conscious. Although I remember I did look at my dad once and say, ‘Do you think I could wear pants?’”

5. Sydney Sweeney has appeared topless in several episodes of Euphoria. She said she feels there's “a stigma against actresses who get naked on-screen.” She explained, “When a guy has a sex scene or shows his body, he still wins awards and gets praise. But the moment a girl does it, it’s completely different.” She added, "I’m very proud of my work in Euphoria. I thought it was a great performance. But no one talks about it because I got naked."

6. Jennifer Lawrence confirmed that she did not use a body double for her fully naked scene in No Hard Feelings. She explained that she felt totally comfortable on set and wanted to do the nudity herself because of how funny she thought the scene was. "Everyone in my life and my team is doing the right thing and going, ‘Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure?’ I didn’t even have a second thought," she said. "It was hilarious to me."

7. Oscar Isaac went full frontal for his series Scenes From a Marriage but said he didn't even realize it'd be included in the final cut. "I was surprised because I didn't know that was gonna happen," he said. "You get sent the stuff to look at and to be like, 'Okay, I'm fine with that.' But I saw it on a laptop, quite dark, and I didn't notice what was happening down there. It was a surprise when I started seeing all these [headlines] like, 'It's full frontal!' I'm like, 'No, what are you talking about?! And I saw it clear as day on the big TV there."

8. Jason Segel did a full-frontal scene in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and he thought it was "hilarious." He told Vulture, "I was actually not very uncomfortable doing it. I really felt free."

9. Michael Fassbender did a full-frontal nude scene in Shame, but he didn't have time to feel self-conscious because of the film's tight shooting schedule. “We moved very fast. We shot it in 25 days, so I kind of had to get over it and get on with it,” he said.

10. Angelina Jolie was tempted to cut her nude scenes in By the Sea, which came out two years after she'd undergone a double mastectomy. She said, "You can't change or cut this scene because you've had a mastectomy. That would be cheating."

11. Halle Berry appeared naked in Monster's Ball and said that she agreed to the nudity because her costar, Billy Bob Thornton, was doing it too. "It was four days before the end of shooting, so we knew who these people were, and we just went for it," she said. "We both agreed to be uninhibited with our bodies, so it wasn't just the woman who was being exposed, and we just said, 'Let's service these characters.' We only had to do it one time, which is good, because you don't really want to have to go there that many times..."

12. Chris Pine got fully naked for Outlaw King because he felt like it was only fair since Florence Pugh got nude for the movie too. He said, "Florence shows her entire body in this film and no one is talking about that. Is Florence expected to do that because she is a woman and I'm not expected to do that because I'm a man?"

13. Finally, James McAvoy appeared naked in The Last King of Scotland, and revealed that he actually really enjoys getting naked for his projects. “Yeah, I like to get naked. I like being naked, I like being naked on stage, more than I like being naked on film. Naked on film is not that fun, but naked on stage is really quite freeing. On stage there's nowhere to hide, you're completely vulnerable. When you're completely vulnerable, it can't get any worse, can it?" he said.
