Alexander Skarsgård is stripping down for Calvin Klein's latest menswear campaign.

The 48-year-old actor, who stars in the upcoming film Lee, smolders in Calvin Klein's Fall 2024 collection, which focuses on "transitional layers" and flirts with "minimalism," per the brand. In a series of photos shot by Mert Alas, Skarsgård looks relaxed as he prepares for his day in a series of classic looks, which include an open white dress shirt, the brand's Refined Slim Trousers and Blazer and a cozy wool sweater that gives off major autumnal vibes.

In one photo, the Succession alum goes shirtless, opting to wear nothing but dark sunglasses and slacks with the band from a pair of Calvin Klein's famed underwear peeking out.

In an interview posted by Esquire on Wednesday, Sept. 4, Skarsgård opened up about his experience posing for Calvin Klein more than a decade after his first campaign with the brand.

"I’m incredibly honored and excited," he said. "I’d worked with Mert [Alas, campaign director and photographer] on something else years ago, and had such a great time working with him as well. It’s very fun, and he works fast, so it’s a very energetic set, which fits me."

The photo shoot leans into the fall aesthetic with the Swedish actor being bathed in golden light in nearly every shot. Skarsgård embraces the brand's new Calvin Klein Studio collection, which focuses on "elevated essentials" as he models sleek looks that take him from "dawn till dusk."

The outfits not only fit Skarsgård like a glove, they also suit his own personal style — which he told Esquire values quality over quantity.

"I think it’s very important that when you go out to buy stuff, [you] buy stuff that you obviously love and you’re excited to come home and try on, but pieces that will last and sustain you," he said. "You want to build a relationship with those pieces, or at least I do."

He added, "I love having stuff that I’ve worn for many years, and that I have many memories from wearing."

Ultimately, Skarsgård told the outlet that comfort trumps all else, since he's "like a 5-year-old when it comes to clothes." The True Blood star certainly looks comfortable in the brand's new menswear collection as he sports '90s style straight jeans and a mustard-colored button down open all the way to his waist.

While most of his photos feature the actor baring his chest, he also goes full fall in a sweater that a wool sweater that wouldn't be out of place in a Nora Ephron film. (Who's up for When Alexander Met Sally?)

"It was wonderful to reunite with the Calvin Klein team for this campaign," the actor said in a statement. "There was such a great energy during this shoot, I’ve worked with Mert and his team a couple of times before and it’s always a blast. I loved the styling – it felt sophisticated and sleek, but still very relaxed and playful."
