"The newsworthy nude pictures of sexy male celebrities"
Clive Owen
He is the English actor with the sexiest voice in Hollywood; Academy Award nominated
(Children of Men)and winner of both Golden Globes and BAFTA; he is the handsome gentleman Clive Owen.
He had a simple childhood with four brothers and a father who was a railway ticket inspector. Proving that talent and effort will shine through, he graduated in the same class as Ralph Fiennes in 1987 from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and shortly after, joined the Young Vic where he met his future wife Sarah-Jane Fenton.
Starting out with some television drama for Thames Television and the BBC he quickly moved into moves where he won critical acclaim for his role in Stephen Poliakoff's Close My Eyes where he does his first and best full frontal nude scene. My personal favourite is his 1998 Channel 4 movie Croupier directed by Mike Hodges. He cleverly found more fame in the U.S. through starring as The Driver in a series of short films sponsored by BMW and made by
prominent directors.
More recently he starred with Altman's Gosford Park with Ryan Phillippe, in The Bourne Identity with Matt Damon and then had the lead role in King Arthur, where interestingly we find out Arthur is half Roman! Did you know, Owen playing Dan in the Broadway play Closer but Larry in the movie version?
Nudity Review - Clive
Owen Skin on Screen
Coventry charmer Clive has all the women after him, many of who hoped Sin City would be commercialised porn, but alas it was not. Take a look back through Clive's career and you can find some nice shots of his bod. Most recently, in Shoot 'Em Up in 2007 we get to see his lovely butt while he makes love to Monica Bellucci - hairless and handsome! In 1997 he starred in Bent, baring his ass again, which we catch yet again in 1993's Century. The star of his flicks if you want to catch ALL of Owen is the 1991 film Close My Eyes where his character has a sexual relationship with his own sister played by Saskia
Reeves; with lots of guilt and middle-class
awkwardness. There is a sex scene where
Clive is complete naked and during the
partial frontal you get a clear view of his
penis.

"Yes. We have got on very well on Closer, so I was always very keen to work with Julia again." (On working with Julia ROberts again in Duplicity (previously in Closer)

"Whatever anybody tells you, those scenes are always awkward. You go into a room, you’ve got 15 guys standing around, you take off your clothes and you get into bed… it’s never going to be comfortable and easy! But it really does help if you keep it light and keep some sense of humour in the room." (On sex scenes for indieLONDON)
"It was tough. Usually when people talk to me about shooting out of sequence, I’m like, “Well, this is the game, we know that, it’s like, that’s what you do. You have to be able to.” But this film, because of the scope and the scale of it and the places traveled and having not shot anything, and to get to the point where you’re having the showdown of the movie, where finally the person that’s been untouchable, you finally get to stand there with — it was very hard because you haven’t got the luxury of everything that’s gone before to know where to pitch it. It was about pitch, it wasn’t about the intent of the scene or whether the scene was right, it was just about where it was pitched, and I did find that difficult." (On filming the end of The International first, in MoviesOnline.ca)
"The sexiest part of the body is the eyes. That's what I believe. "
Clive's latest movies The International and Duplicity where he plays Ray Koval (which is Julia Roberts' big come-back for 2009), with the likes of Oleg Shtefanko and Denis O'Harem are in theatres for Spring 2009.
An interesting project Clive is involved in according to IMDB is The Boys Are Back in Town, where a sports journalist ends up a single parent in tragic circumstances; with Laura Fraser and Erik Thomson. Don't know much about this yet, probably no nude scenes. There is the obvious Sin City
sequel where he plays Dwight McCarthy again in this star-studded cast including Mickey Rourke, Antonio Banderas (rumored) and Michael Madsen of Pulp Fiction fame. The most recent project for Clive appears to be, Inside Man 2 with Denzel Washington - not much other info on this one either.
