Twilight actor Robert Pattinson would get naked on screen for the right role.
The British actor - who plays vampire heartthrob Edward Cullen in the Twilight movies - would consider taking his clothes off if he thought the part required it.
Pattinson said: "I think it would depend on what it is. And I don't think a lot of people would really want to see that. I think it would ruin the illusion."
Although he would be prepared to strip for a movie, the 23-year-old star admits he finds nudity embarrassing and struggled when he had to shoot explicit scenes for the 2008 movie Little Ashes, in which he played a young Salvador Dali.
He said in an interview with Britain's Star magazine: "It's funny because Spanish people have no problem with nudity at all, and I mean at all. And English people obviously do have the most enormous problem with it.
"Little things, like when I saw my father getting changed for
swimming, I was traumatised by it and I kind of freaked out a
bit."
