“You’re a never nude?” Johnson asks, before adding, “Hugely turned on by that information.” Skarsgård’s reply: “In your dreams, girl.”

The exchange comes from Between Takes, a Valentino-sponsored video made for the Vendetta fragrance launch, with a recap published September 30. The actors have known each other for over 10 years, and the fragrance campaign was their first collaboration.

The questions also cover his preferred genre, which he calls “dramedy,” and what cocktail he’d be. His answer to that one: “Moonshine.”
