True Blood
‘s Ryan Kwanten has spoken about his already infamous gay sex scene with co-star Alexander Skarsgård.
The pair appeared in a passionate dream sequence for the latest episode of the HBO drama’s final season, which the actor says was “a lot of fun” to film.
He told TV Line: “I always have a lot of fun, and I think that’s the important thing to remember. We’re just there to have fun and to stay true to the characters.
“Thinking back to this particular scene, I just remember Alex and I laughing a lot.”
Kwanten also revealed that he and Skarsgård have always been keen to star in a scene together.
He added: “There was word on the street that a scene was coming, and to be honest, Alex and I had been – not necessarily begging to work together – but we’d been pondering the thought, ‘What if we were ever put in a scene where it was just the two of us? What would happen?’ And this is what our illustrious writers came up with.”

True Blood‘s seventh and final season begins in the UK next Monday (July 7) on Fox.
