Alexander Skarsgard responds to rumors about his sexuality: 'It doesn't matter'
The actor's recent statements during the promotion of his new film
Actor Alexander Skarsgard has been the talk of the town in recent days due to his recent statements about his personal life, which sparked speculation on social media regarding his sexual preferences. What did I say? Here's the story.
It was during his appearance at the Zurich Film Festival to promote his new film, “Pillion,” that the actor decided to address these rumors, assuring everyone that the fact that the story of his feature film has a certain connection to his own past does not mean that it is linked to his sexuality.
“That it resonated with my past was not an intentional statement,” he explained in statements reported by Variety magazine.
Along the same lines, he explained that his intention was to highlight the complexity and layers of the characters in “Pillion” and not to make a description of himself, as had been suggested on social media: “This story was beautiful because it felt warm, sexy, funny, awkward, and strange,” the actor noted.
Alexander Skarsgard took the opportunity to clarify that regardless of his sexual preferences, he does not consider it relevant to share this type of information about his private life: “I have a son, but what I've done, who I've been with “Status, men or women, it doesn't matter here,” he told the American website. To conclude his interview, Skarsgard expressed his hope that the audience would connect with the characters in the film directed by Harry Lighton, just as he did when reading the script. But what is “Pillion” about? The story follows Colin, played by Harry Melling, a reserved young man who begins a dominant-submissive relationship with Ray, an enigmatic biker played by Alexander Skarsgard. According to the film's synopsis: “Colin searches for his own identity and well-being, while his relationship with Ray leads him to question his own boundaries.”
