Reasoning a role required him to change his appearance, the 'True Blood' hunk insists that he would never turn it down and is 'always looking for something that's real and that's got meat on it.'
Alexander Skarsgard thinks it would be "artistic suicide" to rely on his good looks for work. The Swedish actor insists he isn't vain and would never turn down a role because it required him to change his appearance.
"I'm always looking for something that's real and that's got meat on it," he said. "I think it's artistic suicide if you're too vain, or if you're afraid to play ugly. I would never fall for that."
The "True Blood" star, who is rumored to be dating actress
Kate Bosworth, struggles to understand why he is viewed as a sex symbol. He added to Telegraph, "Do I think I'm beautiful? I see myself as most people see themselves, you have good days and bad days. I don't think I'm better looking now than I did three years ago."
Alexander, 33, admits he is a thrill seeker but is wary about who he dates as he thinks it would be too damaging to his life. He said, "I know I have to be careful because there is something destructive within me, I think, and I can have a tendency to just search for the kicks."
"I can't really get too close to someone who's too destructive, or too dark, because then I might go down the rabbit hole myself."
